Target Japan BLACK MARQUE CREED 90% SWISS POINT

The BLACK MARQUE CREED is the result of Shunpei Kuroda's collaboration with Target Darts, built around his own playing philosophy rather than following existing trends or standard specs.

Blended outline
The rear section has a maximum diameter of 6.2mm while the front section reaches 6.8mm, creating a bold diameter change not typically found on standard torpedo or straight barrels. This forms a natural grip guide, helping players intuitively find their finger placement for a repeatable, stable grip.

By combining straight sections of differing thickness, the barrel merges the forward drive of a torpedo shape with the stability of a straight barrel. For players who grip further back, the outline flows smoothly from the shaft through to the main grip area for a natural fit.

Delta cut rear section
The rear section features a sharp-edged delta cut, giving a firm hold on the fingers while still releasing cleanly without unwanted snagging.

Rear section detail
Reflecting Kuroda's own preference for a rear grip, the outline runs smoothly from the shaft into the main cut grip area. A 3.1mm taper at the rear of the barrel makes finger contact feel natural during grip.

Front section detail
Precision milling and ring cuts on the front section support fine fingertip control and a smooth release toward the target line. A micro cut near the tip also suits players who support the barrel with their middle or ring finger, reducing slippage during the throw.

Black finish
Finished in PVD black coating for a sharp, refined look with a strong presence. The coating offers good wear resistance, helping the barrel keep its finish through regular play.
