I do not know if that will vot. the warranty but it will not up the action of the rod if of the butt, I had to cut 6"off of rod because no one made a rod that was rite rod,all the rods close but no ciger, so I got a idea take it off the top and it tured into a very good match to the rod I was matching

was thinking about buying a carbon fiber handle kit from rileys, has any one of you used this. was wondering if you have any problems with the epoxy yellowing or flakeing off. also how does it preform in rod holders, will it dent the handle if put in a rod holder. if you have a better sugestion on epoxys would like to hear about it.
