Photo Details
Russ Miller Registered: April 2005 Location: Southern California Posts: 85	The handle was made from Maple Burl and the reel seat insert from Cocobolo (mortised). I used gold cap/ring hardware for the reel seat and gold single foot guides with ceramic inserts all the way through the tip top. I also used a gold Fuji style folding hookeeper. I used Garnet NCP with Metallic Gold for the trim bands.
