The Record
Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correctThe Kyoei Blade in Slant Neck Black DLC is a variant within Kyoei's Blade line, distinguished from its stablemates by finish rather than shape. Torque Golf's shop page describes it as a traditional blade design with a flow neck, specifically a half offset flow neck, paired with a thick top line and a deep milling design on the face. The face itself is reported as Forged Carbon S20C, with the body built from S20C as well, per that same source.
The defining feature of this release is the treatment on top of the metal. Torque Golf's listing describes the black finish as a Japanese DLC finish, chrome plated with DLC applied on top, and lists a broader finish progression across the line as Polished, Bead Blast, Chrome Satin, Black DLC. That sequence suggests this Black DLC version sits at one end of a finish spectrum Kyoei offers on the same head, rather than standing as a one-off.
On spec, the shop page puts head weight at 350 g, loft at 3 degrees, and lie at 70 degrees. All of this comes from Torque Golf's reporting rather than from Kyoei's own materials, so it should be read as one retailer's account of the putter rather than a maker-confirmed figure.
