Are the RS10 CB aimed at a lower handicap? The MB says 0-14 h/c online, the CB doesn't have a guide?

I was going to ask the exact same thing even though my game looks more suited to the CTi iron.

I have a set of the CTi irons. Granted, they are 2nd hand so not custom built for me, but at £70 for 5-PW they were a steal after I had heard a good few things about Orka here. I have them as a 2nd set, I don't use them too often as the shafts are reg not stiff. The CTi irons are good, but they are a little big for me, I'd like a slimmer line which is why I am looking at those beautiful RS10s!

theyre a Japanese forged steel forged in Japan so more expensive that the rest of the irons. I'd imagine most 'higher' would be suited to the reflex

Absolutely fine mate.
Ive got stiff shafts tipped but they don't play too firm due to my late release.
Gimme a couple of weeks and I'll sort out to borrow it

When I went get fitted for new irons the guy I went to was an Orka dealer. I tried several brands and the ones I hit the best were TM and Orka.
As I had heard about Orka on here I had no problem getting them, they were also nearly half the price of the TM ones.

I got fitted by Rich a few weeks ago. 2 hours working through all the options, with no sales pressure just hard facts and opinion. I came away a very happy man! Less than a week later I received my RS10 CBs with KBS stiff shafts. Can't wait for the driving iron to come out, I'll be back for one in a shot.
Had them out on the course a few times now. Longer with each iron and feel like butter. LOVE THEM.

But the CB are for around the 0-14h/c still? They are the best looking ones by a mile!

Hard to say really mate, i certainly don't think they'd be hard to hit for many people. If they were, it would be pointless having the MB offering as well.
Message Alex and ask him (you won the hybrid before didnt you?), he'll answer any questions rather than me speculating

I did win the hybrid! It's a lovely hybrid too! I'll drop him a line.

I don't believe that's correct! At least that's what my correspondence with Alex indicated! However, they do use Japanese steel - and are very good value for money. Even better if you get suitable ones 2nd-hand!
As Hovis posted...Quality clubs! And the service is generally top-notch!

which part is not correct? i stand to be corrected, but The RS10s are forged in Japan. The others are Japanese steel forged in China...
hence the RS10s costing more

Out of interest as you have had a recent experience, what was the choice of shafts like? I've heard a lot of arguments that the shaft is the most important part of the club, but is often overlooked by manufacturers. Do they make their own or buy in other brands?

will depend on the fitter you go see. But ORKA do have their own shaft that is produced by FST (Who make KBS). I've used it in all my irons and we cant beat it for me when doing testing. NH9 - PRo i think its called

Can you post a photo of their driving iron. Can't seem to find it.

I have friends who live in Baldock so would probably go to ORKA directly if I were to buy them (found some indicative prices online, seem incredibly reasonably priced for what they are offering).
This maybe beyond your knowledge but I'll ask anyway, if you don't know I'll contact ORKA directly.
The guy who reshafted by 3-wood was saying that most OEM shafts were made using brine, meaning they don't last long and age harden very quickly. Over the years my x-stiff shafts has become xx-stiff he said. Whereas the better shaft manufacturers use oil in their processes instead of brine meaning they last a hell of a lot longer before hardening.
Do you know it ORKA's shafts are made with the oil process, I am presuming they are
