White Kabuto 7033 Finished
The White Kabuto 7ft 3wt 3pc is now finished. There are only a few photos that really show the "real" color of the wraps on this rod. It came out very well, I think the wraps are the same color as the blued nickel all metal seat (which is what the client wanted) and the "titanium" silk thread is light enough to show the black tipping as well. I am very pleased and I think Christopher will be as well.
Wraps are Clover brand silk, with black tipping. Reel seat is all metal blued nickel made by Joel Lemke. Blued Nickel silver winding check and stripper guide frame with a black and white agate stone. Titanium carbide snakes and tip top. Flor grade thin cigar grip. More photos on facebook. Also view this post to read more of how this rod came together.
