Product information

King's JAPAN Second Edition90
Skyscraper

The first model of the collaboration with KTM.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this product will be donated to the Great East Japan Earthquake relief efforts.

The tungsten used in the KINGS is too heavy, so we went with 90% tungsten.
The total weight is 19.5g for the barrel alone.
Initially, we were going to use No.5, but 2BA was a better fit and we finally selected 2BA.
The dent in the center of the barrel is not for grip, but simply to make the weight lighter.

The gripping point is set at 27mm.
The gripping point is 27mm, which is deep enough for 4 fingers.
The grip is a combination of a deeper cut and a thinner surface cut, so that it feels a little tight at first, but as it matures, it becomes stable and feels the same.
The tapered part has a thin radius that you can't tell by looking at it, so unlike a normal taper, it's easy to get your thumb on.
The reason why we didn't make the radius deeper is because when you grip it, the deeper radius feels more comfortable, but when you feed it, the deeper radius feels more comfortable.
The reason why we didn't add a deeper radius is because a deeper radius feels more comfortable when gripping, but it also creates a situation where it gets stuck and is difficult to pull out of the finger.

The only thing to keep in mind about this barrel is that it is too tight for women. Think of it as a men's barrel. That's how heavy we set it.
Well, the sales model is 19.5g, so it's a value that has started to appear recently.
If you are used to hard darts, this may be just right for you.

A friend of mine had one and let me try it out.
It is quite heavy for a soft dart, as described in the description, but you can feel the weight and throw it.
The grip part of the cut is rather short and a little strong, so the grip position is almost fixed and recognizable, and I think you can hold the same part every time.
I also felt that the cut is very slow.

The center of gravity is in the center at the time of setting, but it flies with the weight, so I thought it was a good decision by KTM to use 2BA. I thought it was a good choice.
It is easy to throw by pushing or swinging, so it is suitable for any thrower, but I think it is better suited for swinging throwers who swing their arms firmly.
If you are a regular hard thrower, I think this is a good barrel that you can throw without any discomfort in terms of weight.

I was hesitant to buy it because I couldn't try it out, but I decided to buy it. I threw it immediately after receiving it and felt that the cut on the grip part was not as strong as the impression on the outside, but the feel was good. Even if the cut is shaved off, I think the change in the feeling in my fingers will be mild. I think it was a good decision to purchase it.

I've been throwing it around for about 6 months and here are my impressions.
Anyway, it flies easily with the weight, so I don't have to worry about the flight anymore.
I am the type of person who pushes with 3 fingers, so maybe this barrel is not suitable for me.
But if I can make it fly properly, it flies very well.
The cut is not too tight for me.
However, it took me a while to get used to it because I used to use a barrel with a fixed grip position.
It took me a while to get used to it.

I can easily use the weight of the barrel and fly it without thinking too much...
I can now throw with simple thinking.

These darts are easy to throw even for 2- to 3-finger wannabes. The cut is not so strong and has moderate information to the finger, and the step at the center cut end has a very good feeling with gentle finger contact. The weight of the barrel is 19.5g, but it is easy to throw and the stability of the flight is also due to the weight of the barrel.

The thickness, length, and weight were all exquisite! I think it would fit nicely on someone with large hands! But I was disappointed that the cut was too loose. I would have had no complaints if it had micro or double rings.
