Kokutaku Alnon Review

@Ant,

I did mention these blades are exported out of Japan. JTTA Stamp is required for Japanese Tournaments.

a) Again, I am not Japanese or in Japan. I cannot be too sure. If you insist that all made in japan blades MUST have JTTA Stamp.
Please, contact KTT directly with your questions. http://www.kokukdaku.com

But to say being harmed by purchasing. If from a) you are wrong and it is not mandatory.
I can understand if the blades are of inferior quality; Frankly, when you look at these products and from feedback. I have been told that it's the complete opposite.

You can choose not to purchase the item, if you are particular about the JTTA Stamp.
But your statement, a consumer who has bought and been harmed by it. This is very unfair to us dealers.
You could also have asked your reseller and stated your concerns before making a purchase too.

Otherwise, let us stop here.
I wish I could, but I am not at liberty to share with you. Their manufacturing and marketing processes.
It is best you contact them directly. I have given you the link, which should get you to the right people.

@Ant,

I have explained to you time and again.
I have introduced myself, gave you direct contact to the Brand Owners themselves to check for authenticity, to the best of my effort also gave you explanations.

Quoted from you: " Now I wonder why products like Butterfly, Nittaku, Victas, Darker have J.T.T.A.A. stamps as you say they are only marketed in S.E.A and not used for tournaments in Japan? "
This is YOU saying these things. Not me.

Now I start to wonder, what is your purpose on this Forum?

If you are unhappy with a product and dislike it, I cannot help you.
What's more you've already requested for a refund from your local Reseller.
If you don't like something, nobody can force you to buy it. You are also free to express your dissatisfaction.

But you refuse my explanations and keep coming to me with weird opinions of yours.

If you are going to Japan for a Tournament. And you seem like you are always 100% sure about rulings, manufacturing and distribution there. Very likely you should get yourself prepared beforehand.
If an equipment is not going to be allowed for play there, then don't use it. Simple.

You might as well say all Brands whether Blades or Rubbers without JTTA cannot be used there.
Kokutaku 868 Rubbers, Kokutaku 3008B Blades and Such, Kokutaku Special Material Blades, just don't buy and even use it there then.

Sorry but this is getting ridiculous.

I think these kokutaku blade series haven't yet get JTTAA approved.. that's why japan shop likes iruiru and tt-japan are not selling them..
