Takomo built the Lumo B1 for blade players who want a milled head without paying big-brand prices. It feels good and aims easily, but forgiveness trails the rest of its scores.

What's new

The B1 is the blade in Takomo's Lumo pair, released in October 2026 alongside the M1. Both share a one-piece head milled from 303 stainless steel, a KBS CT Tour single bend shaft and a SuperStroke 2.0 PT grip made for Takomo, and both sell at the same price.

Takomo made the blade wide and gave it 8 mm of onset. You can order it at 33, 34 or 35 in, in Satin Steel or Black DLC, and left-handed players get the same options. DLC adds a small premium over satin, and every version ships with a headcover.

How it plays

Feel carries the B1. It scores 8.7 there, and testers describe a solid strike off the one-piece 303 head. Accuracy follows at 8.3, which fits what reviewers said about the wide blade: it is easy to aim.

One reviewer tested the B1 and M1 together and came away slightly preferring the blade, though only by a small margin. Distance control and workability both score 8.2, so speed on long putts holds up without standing out. Value tops the card at 8.8.

Where it lacks

At 8.0, forgiveness sits a step below every other rating the B1 earned. Players who often miss the center should weigh that before choosing the blade over the M1.

Fitting is limited. Three lengths topping out at 35 in will not suit everyone, and paying extra for DLC buys a darker finish, not better performance.

“It feels solid and sets up square. Just do not count on it to rescue a toe strike.”

Reasons to buy

  • A one-piece milled 303 stainless head earns 8.7 for feel, the highest of its performance ratings
  • Wide blade shape and 8 mm of onset make it easy to line up at address
  • Value scores 8.8, and a headcover and left-hand models come at no extra cost

Reasons to think twice

  • Off-center strikes cost more than its other ratings suggest, and forgiveness drops to 8.0
  • Only three lengths, 33 to 35 in, leave anyone wanting a longer putter without a stock option
  • The Black DLC finish costs more than Satin Steel for a cosmetic change
