Epon: The Tsubame Forge
Epon is the own-name brand of Endo Manufacturing of Tsubame, Niigata. Endo dates from 1950, and by the accounts gathered in Epon and Endo: The Forging House Behind Other Names the Epon name arrived in 1977.
Endo has forged heads for other brands, and the company does not name them, so what is said about its customers is attributed in the chapter. The room will fill as the archive grows. Head, shaft, flex, length and condition are recorded in each description.
