So I need to replace my 5 iron and I came across one that looks like the following:



This is the first time Ive ever seen them with a silver before. It looks knockoff-ish to me. Is it worth getting to replace my 5 iron?

It's JDM so that would add about 5 horsepower/yards at the minimum.

It will be virtually the same. Do check the length though, the japanese market is obviously suited to smaller people, as the Japanese are slightly smaller on average. The head will be the same i think, length and lie are worth a look though.

What I Play:
Wilson Mini Stand Bag | PING G10, 10.5°, Proforce V2 HL S | PING G5, 15°, 18°, Aldila NV 75 S | PING G5, 19°, Aldila VS Proto By You 80 S
Mizuno MX200 4-PW S | Ping Tour W 50/12 X | Ping Tour W 58/TS X | A selection of putters, all 35.5 inches.

Does it come with a 'powered by taylor made' sticker?
