Probably a bit unfair to say there is no recoil reduction in these linear-type brakes. Linears reduce recoil but they are not as efficient as more traditional designs that channel gasses out the side. There is surface area around the ports which the gasses push against. What you lose in recoil reduction efficiency however you gain in noise reduction.
I have used the Troy Medieval (linear) which is a similar design to the Kaw Valley. Great for light recoiling calibers with short barrels where noise reduction is more important than recoil.
