custom cork

Hello all,

Does anyone know of a rod builder who would build custom cork handles?

I'm looked for some handles for a switch rod and cannot find anything I like in the retail market. I don't have access to a lathe or the equipment to make my own handles.

Thanks,
Tom.

JP's grips are definitely awesome and he's a nice guy to go with it. He can build you anything in cork that you could imagine.
Some of the stuff he had at the Expo.
