"Fighting butt" cork where to find

I do not have the equipment (yet) to glue up and turn my own cork so I am looking for some pre made cork grips designed to look like the fighting butt style. That is, ready to be reamed to fit the bottom of a split grip handle (both bass cast and spin). They need to be tapered toward the front, about 2.5-3.0 inches long and around 1.25 inches in diameter, with the composite ring on the bottom. Oh, I do not need but a few for now (6-8), in the middle of year-end close out and audit, rods will be slow for a while!

Bill,
I have some in stock that might be what you're looking for.
What is the dia. at reel seat end and butt end that you need?

Andy
