Beautiful work as usual Steve! That handle is sharp. I've gotta get my wife into fly fishing so I can do a pink or purple rod one of these days.

I've heard lots of good things about the Tiger eye in lower weights, what are your thoughts on that 8wt blank?

They are nice blanks and can't beat the price. On the 8wt if you get one then get the Saltwater series of Tiger eye because the saltwater series have a smaller OD on the butt and they are bit crisper action than the freshwater series. And only cost a few bucks more.
