Kronos Touch Putter

Blade Putter

Kronos makes putters the slow way. Every Touch head is milled from a single block of soft carbon steel, and the company skips the plating that most brands use to protect the metal. That means the raw steel on this 2024 Touch will oxidize and pick up a patina over time, which some golfers love and others fuss over. It is a boutique product with a boutique price, aimed at players who care about how a putter feels at impact more than how many gadgets are stamped on it.

The Touch is a compact blade with full toe hang, so it wants an arcing stroke. If you release the putter and let the face rotate open-to-closed through the ball, this head is built to match that motion. Players who push the putter straight back and straight through will fight it. There is no alignment aid on the top line, just a clean flange and a sight to trust your eyes over technology.

Soft carbon steel is the whole point here. The feel off the face is muted and dense, the kind of feedback that tells you exactly where on the face you struck the ball. That softness is a preference, not a universal upgrade, and it rewards golfers who read greens by feel and pace rather than mechanical repeatability.

Design

This is a traditional heel-toe weighted blade with a full toe hang, which points to a face-balanced setup being the wrong tool for this player. The single-block milling gives the head a consistency of density that welded or cast putters cannot match, and Kronos leaves the finish raw rather than chrome or nickel plating it. Expect the steel to darken and spot as you play it, especially if you leave it wet. The silhouette is small and clean. No alignment line, no contrasting insert, no oversized flange. The design assumes you want to look down at a quiet shape and aim it yourself, and it puts the mass in the heel and toe to hold the face stable on off-center hits without turning the head into a mallet.

Who It's For

• You have an arcing putting stroke and release the toe through the ball, which full toe hang is built to complement.
• Soft, muted feel off a milled carbon steel face matters more to you than a firmer, more responsive click.
• You prefer a clean blade with no alignment line and trust your own aim over a stamped sight aid.
• You are fine maintaining a raw steel finish that patinas and can rust if neglected, and you might even want that look.
• You are willing to pay a premium for a fully milled boutique putter made in small batches rather than a mass-production model.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Kronos Touch have full toe hang or is it face balanced?

It has full toe hang, so the toe points straight down when you balance the shaft on your finger. That makes it a match for a strong arcing stroke where the face opens and closes. If your stroke is straight back and straight through, a face-balanced putter will suit you better.

Why does the Kronos Touch rust, and can I stop it?

Kronos mills the Touch from soft carbon steel and does not plate it, so the raw metal reacts with air and moisture and develops a patina. You can slow it down by wiping the head dry after every round and keeping a light coat of oil on it, but some owners let it darken on purpose because it is part of the look.

Does the Kronos Touch have an alignment line?

No. The Touch has a clean top line with no alignment aid, so you aim it by the shape of the head rather than a painted sight line. Golfers who aim well by eye tend to like this. If you rely on a line to set up square, a different putter will help you more.

Is the Kronos Touch worth the price?

That depends on what you value. You are paying for a fully CNC-milled carbon steel head made in small batches, not injection-molded parts or high-tech faces. If soft feel and craftsmanship justify the cost for you, it delivers. If you want forgiveness numbers and alignment tech, the money is better spent elsewhere.

What kind of feel does the Kronos Touch give at impact?

Soft and dense. The milled carbon steel gives a muted response that tells you precisely where you struck the ball, which helps golfers who control distance by feel. It is not a firm, clicky putter, so if you like loud feedback and a springy roll this will feel dead to you.
