The blanks I have built in this series are extremely light with ultra thin ferrules. A parabolic action. One of my favorite rods is a 2 weight IV with a shortened butt (6' 2") throwing a 5 weight intermediate line. It feels exactly right.

Bill,

The Signature IV series is not one that we sell on a large basis. It was/is custom cut and usually only done for wholesale members. I do occasionally get in a few light weights (1wt, 2wt maybe a 3wt) That I offer but people need to call for availability.
Maybe you meant Signature V. The Signature V blanks are all 3pc 60 million modulus and medium fast action. Our catalog currently lists our FT blanks, Signature V, Signature III and the imported IM6 blanks.
Thanks,

Dan Craft
