Sengoku – Masamaxx


Following in the footsteps of the Masamune and Masamini, the Masamaxx is an oversized, heavyweight bimetal addition to the Sengoku lineup.

Wow! The Masamaxx weighs in at 92 grams, and what you get for stepping so far from the norm is incredible power! Sengoku didn’t skimp on materials, using 7075 aluminum for the body and stainless steel for the weight ring. You’ll understand with the first throw just how unique this throw is. Unlike some of the heavyweight yo-yos where you don’t really feel the weight until you throw it, Masamaxx has the heft you can feel the second you pick it up. That’s not so surprising when you realize that it’s about 1.5 times as heavy as the average yo-yo.

Not to fall victim to its own impressive mass, Masamaxx still has spectacular stability during play. With that balance, the potential for developing ultra long combos is very high!

At this weight, we can’t say that we’d recommend this yo-yo for everyone, but Masamaxx will feel just at home with players who like niche yo-yo designs and extreme styles, or players looking to push the limits of what they’re capable of.

Sengoku – Musashi


Musashi is a metallurgic masterpiece, combining 7068 aluminum and stainless steel.

Sengoku’s Kenshin was the first yo-yo to incorporate 7068 Aluminum, and now they’re combining it with stainless steel to create a very special bimetal throw. Without any frills or gimmicks, Musashi is designed in the pursuit of spin, its strong but light inner body works with the dense outer rim to deliver on this simple concept.

Its most notable feature is the one you can’t see: the fact that its main body is made from 7068 aluminum, an alloy that is even stronger than the popular 7075 alloy. By switching materials, Sengoku was able to produce a design that would be impossible otherwise, carving even more material out of the body.

With straight shapes comes straight feelings, as the Musashi’s simple profile gives a sharp feeling in hand, capable of whipping out with incredible speed, like the famous Samurai’s sword. Musashi definitely lives up to its namesake
