"The only thing that has me warry of a Rattan wrap is that it looks like it's only glue that is holding the Rattan to the handle. so true durability over time would be a small concern of mine."


The only thing holding the handle on the rod is glue...what is the point?

I have made 4 rattan grips. I sealed mine with Helmsman's spar after gluing them to the cork. Two of them are 3 yrs old and no problems so far.
