With a lifetime of forging expertise and painstaking attention to detail, Katsuhiro Miura is the humble hero behind the golf clubs that bear his name.
His Miura irons and wedges are regarded as among the best in the game, a reputation hard earned after more than 40 years of producing the world’s best irons for the world’s best golfers.
Miura irons and wedges are still handcrafted in the family-run factory in Himeji, an area of Japan that was once famous for making samurai swords, drawing a convenient parallel with Miura’s current production of similarly precise forged blades.
A heritage of artisanal craftsmanship runs through the bloodlines of every Miura iron, which are forged to exacting specifications and refined into renowned elegance by Katsuhiro himself, who still works on the factory floor along with his sons, Shinei and Yoshitaka.
It's a hands-on approach that has served Miura well, with a member of the family personally overseeing the final grinding, polishing and buffing of each iron head before it earns the right to be stamped with the Miura name.
It's an unyielding commitment to integrity that produces the legendary pure Miura feel and performance, which has long been appreciated by the best players in the game.
