Koah Spearguns: Hand-Crafted, Deadly Effective Spearguns

Koah Spearfishing Company was founded by John Ippolito in 2007. He started Koah after spending countless hours in his workshop surrounded by sawdust, refining and tweaking his spearguns to squeeze just a couple more yards of range, or tighten up the accuracy just a smidge. After a truly fanatical effort, Ippolito finally managed to create a speargun that did exactly what he wanted it to: tracked easily, balanced well, and fired a shaft on exactly the same path every time. With that achievement unlocked, Ippolito decided to make the speargun look as good as it worked (his background in art and design wouldn't let him sleep while his perfect speargun looked like Uncle Bubba's weekend project).

This obsessive focus on performance and design goes into every speargun Koah creates. Ippolito won't ship a speargun he wouldn't be delighted to shoot himself. This level of quality doesn't translate to assembly lines, though. Ron Doelman, an expert woodcrafter, works with Ippolito to shape and work exotic hardwoods with the meticulous detail required to produce a Koah speargun. When you pick up a Koah speargun, you'll feel the difference and appreciate that other people drove themselves crazy making sure you won't miss your next shot.
