Your Dive. With A Side of Air
The Katana 2 harness sets a new standard in sidemount diving. Designed in collaboration with Edd Sorenson from Cave Adventurers, we developed a unique new "Quick Fit System" which allows users to easily tailor the one-size-fits-all harness to their specific size or adjustment preference in a matter of minutes. We added more lift, more weight capacity, single and dual bladder options and the best quality materials Hollis has always been known for. Katana 2 is also the first sidemount harness in the world to be designed with closed circuit sidemount capability, with integrated mounts for the popular KISS sidewinder. Katana 2 breaks away from traditional designs and offers more customization and versatility.

“Depending on location, everyone’s a little bit different about how they like to set their harness up. But at the end of the day, the coolest thing about the Katana 2 is that you can run it however you want. Technical divers love to modify and tweak … depending how they’ve been diving in the past, or how they were taught or how they teach their students … The key benefit of the Katana 2 is that those people can make all of the adjustments and decisions for themselves.”
-Hollis Brand Manager Nick Hollis
- “QFS” Quick Fit System offers fine tuning of the torso height between small and large divers for a true one size fits all
- Design allows for an “H” or “Y” style harness configuration, depending on user preference
- Lift capacity is 40lbs with innovative wing design to keep diver profile even lower than the competition and without the “turtle shell effect” which causes drag
- Standard weight capacity 20lbs, to offset added buoyancy in cold water with drysuits and thick undergarments
- Also Available in dual bladder configuration.
1. The valves and wings should be kept clean. Sea salt can cause effects.
2. Rinse thoroughly with clean water every time after the end of the dive. Inject the clean water into the BC by about 1/3 of the volume through the mouth valve of the valve, fill the BC, then flip and shake the BC to thoroughly rinse the inside, then drain the water inside the BC through the mouthpiece. After repeating the above steps 2 to 3 times, finally fully inflate the BC, store it in a cool, dry place, and avoid direct sunlight.
