I have sold a LOT OF RODS WITH RED FIR BARK AS THE GRIP. After over 3 years of hard use not one complaint or return. Just not as soft as cork that is about the only difference.
Steve and Kevin are both excellent builders. You can not go wrong with either one of them. After building a few hundred rods I would use either one of these guys to built me a rod.
One of the things I do before wrapping the rod is to grind the feet down to match the rod diamiter where the wrap will be placed or approximate location. the hair thingies that kevin uses are...
