Nice new shiney Orkas

I have finally got my new irons :D

View attachment 8977
I saw some actually in the metal last week, as a new member I was marking a card for has a custom fitted set of them. He is about 6'5" tall btw, so they were an inch longer than standard and 2 degrees upright, which is the opposite to what I need. Nevertheless I had a quick try with them and they felt nice!
 
You ever hit any Homer? As good as anything Ive ever had the pleasure to hit, British company, excellent fit and follow up customer service? Whats not to like?

I thought the heads were made by highly skilled metal workers in Japan (as in Samurai swords), and the shafts in China?!!! :mmm:
 
Sorry I forgot you dont answer when people post, you just reiterate your point, wont waste my typing on you again

Orka would only be a truly British company if all the components were made here. Once upon a time Britain, and especially the West Midlands, were the 'Workshop of the World'. However Mrs Thatcher saw to that and most of the metal working skills have been lost. Incidentally, I started my working life as an Engineering Apprentice in the W.Mids, but ended up working in a variety of service industries for the rest of it! :mmm:

YAWN.

Good luck with the irons Louise!
 
I saw a set of these a while ago. Nice looking irons. I'm not keen on many of their clubs, but these look ok. Not sure why!

Have fun with them.

:rofl:you talk some amount of tosh - even in the days before Maggie, when Britain was wonderful in every single way, we still imported components for all sorts of things.
