Takomo’s argument is the price, and it holds up because nothing else about the clubs is a compromise. Launched in 2021 out of Turku, Finland, it designs the heads, partners with established foundries and ships direct — no pro shop margin, no retail middleman, and the saving goes to the tag.
A set of forged S20C cavity backs at $649 is the headline, and the 101 MKII took MyGolfSpy’s Best Game Improvement Iron.
This is for the player who wants forged irons and has been quietly priced out of them. The Skyforger wedge at $99 is the cheapest way to hold the build quality before committing to a set.
Takomo launched in 2021 out of Turku, Finland with a premise that shouldn't be radical but somehow still is: forged irons, clean design, half the price. No pro shop markup, no retail middlemen, no tour-van mythology. They design the clubs, partner with top-tier foundries, and ship direct. The savings go straight to the price tag — a full set of S20C forged cavity backs for $649, when comparable Japanese-forged sets from Mizuno or Srixon run well north of a thousand.
The lineup spans every skill level. The 101 MKII is a hollow-body game-improvement iron that won MyGolfSpy's Best GI Iron — serious forgiveness at $579 for a seven-piece set. The 201T MKII, new for 2026, is a players precision iron aimed at better ball strikers who want workability without giving up distance. And the 301 CB is the crown jewel: single-billet S20C carbon steel, forged and finished with the kind of feel you associate with boutique Japanese smithing, not a DTC brand that also sells $15 gloves. Wesley Bryan played Takomo irons on the PGA Tour. The Skyforger wedge, at $99, uses the same 8620 steel alloy that Cleveland and Vokey charge nearly double for.
The Scandinavian design DNA shows up everywhere — minimal branding, matte finishes, clean toplines. No loud graphics, no oversized cavities screaming for attention. Takomo makes the case that the traditional equipment pricing model is broken, and then they prove it by shipping clubs that perform alongside irons three times their price. If you haven't heard of them yet, you will.
Takomo spent its first years as an irons company. The 101, the 201 and the 301 covered game improvement through to blades, all forged, all sold direct out of Turku at prices that undercut the houses making comparable heads. That remains the centre of the business.
The catalog around those irons has filled in since. Wedges arrived in the Skyforger, developed with George and Wesley Bryan, and the SF002 added a full-face version at $99. A hollow-body utility iron followed at $119. The Ignis D1 driver marked what National Club Golfer described as the company’s first major move into metalwoods, and the Ignis D2 fairway wood arrived for 2026 in 3, 5 and 7. With the Stand Bag 02 at $279, a golfer can now assemble most of a bag without leaving the site.
Growth has run through YouTube rather than tour bags. Grant Horvat, who has more than a million and a half subscribers, took an ownership stake and plays the irons and wedges on camera. That reaches a different golfer than a rack in a pro shop reaches, and it explains how a five-year-old company from a city of two hundred thousand people ended up in this many bags.
Takomo prints a target handicap range on every iron page, which makes the range unusually easy to read from the outside. The quoted lines below are the brand’s own; the note under each is ours.
The Ignis D2 fairway wood at $269 in 3, 5 and 7, the Stand Bag 02 at $279, and the Skyforger 002 full-face wedge at $99. The Iron 301 MB completes the 301 family at $649.
Sebastian Haapahovi founded the company in 2021 and it is based in Turku, Finland. YouTuber Grant Horvat has taken an ownership stake in the brand, and George and Wesley Bryan worked with Takomo on the Skyforger wedges.
Yes. The Ignis D1 is a 460cc adjustable head at $319, right-handed only, and it marked Takomo's first move into metalwoods. It is sold out in every loft and shaft option as of September 2026.
A direct-to-consumer golf club brand launched in 2021 out of Turku, Finland. It designs its own clubs, partners with foundries, and ships direct, which is how it sells forged irons at roughly half the price of comparable sets. The range runs $99 to $679.
The 101 MKII, a hollow-body game-improvement iron, won MyGolfSpy’s Best GI Iron award and sells for $579 for a seven-piece set. Wesley Bryan has played Takomo irons on the PGA Tour.

No pro shop markup and no retail middlemen. Comparable Japanese-forged sets from Mizuno or Srixon run well north of a thousand dollars; the savings go straight to the price tag.
