Kari is a first rate craftsman for sure, and better yet, he is a genuinely good guy who loves and believes in what he does.

Jman, can you get me the specs and what kind of putter your copper Lajosi. I have always wanted a copper putter and I think I will get one through Lajosi next. Can he heel mount the flange instead of the center and does he do deep milling?

This one jg?

This is the modified KLP4 Kari designed for me, more affectionately called the "KLP4 Chunky" as thats what I asked him to do. I loved the lines of the KLP4, but not how narrow the flange was, so, Kari did this. Much wider/thicker and a tad shorter heel to toe as well. This one also has a bullet in the bottom to get the weight down.

He can do pretty much any neck you want if you let him know, no problems.

This one actually doe shave the deep milling (one of the first he did like that) as well so I imagine that'd be no problem as well.

Mine is just a carbon head with the Copper Plate finish as I like the way it looks when it Patina's.

Just think One-T, this one, with its Vibranted gun-metal/smoke shaft and Lime Gripmaster, is one you turned down me sending out to you for a while.

How sad.

hehe

Emailed Kari today about a grip question, he gave me a little nugget of wonderful news. My putter head went in the cnc machine today, other than 1T reminding me that I get to see him in 10 days it was the best part of my day :act-up:

Kari is a blast to talk with isn't he SW? Very down to earth and really does care. I know your gem will look wonderful in the end, might I pry as to what finish you are thinking of going with?

Absolutely, I've only conversed via email but I get the feeling I could have a beer and chat it up no problem. Finish wise I played it low key with the first one, went with the Black Chrome Satin. The high humidity down here had me worried about other finishes holding up without some careful wiping down after use.

I love that finish on my LPS1. I'll throw this out there for ya though for suture reference, all of Kari's are maintenance free, even the copper plate (you just get a purdy patina with that haha) so you don't have to worry about wiping them down.

I do love that finish though.

Doh! My fault, I've just been conditioned that when I read maintenance free it really means "while this won't fall apart if you neglect it..." So many options, eventually I'll just have one of each

The satin is REALLY nice in hand, you'll be pleased I think. Yep, no worries of silicone wipedowns for any of Kari's. His "new" gun-metal is rediculous too, my favorite, its on my JS8 Flow-Neck pictured a while back.

SW · Nov 19, 2011

So I bit the bullet and ordered a putter from a Kari awhile back, lpsi-cs model. He was so incredible to work with, answering every possible question I had a educating me on the different options he offers to suit my taste/needs. Well a few days ago my putter arrived, more perfect that I ever imagined. Sorry no pics, camera took a swim at work and cell phone pics won't do it justice.

This weekend was the first time I was able to get out on a full course and go to work with it. I've been working on my stroke here at home just getting used to the heavier weight and milled face since I've always used an insert putter.

Well yesterday I struggled a little with distance control but somehow only totaled 33 putts, though it felt like many more. Today I spent a solid hour before the round practicing 5', 10', and 30' putts. Went on the course and had one of the best days putting I've ever had. 31 putts on a course with some huge greens, carded 5 one putts and 1 three putt :bang-head:

I've never been a great putter though I practice quite a bit. Something about this putter just makes the stroke so fluid and the feel is absolutely unreal. I'll get some pics up asap.
