    Lighting or not, Mr. Kusse's rod shines thru as a master-piece!!! After messing about with blue collar rods for the past couple years, I truly enjoy seeing such skill evidenced in the pictures of this thread. Thank you both for sharing!

    Dloe, it is a "garnet" agate stipper. The cane it was built from is pre embargo and as you can see nearly flawless, I found one little water mark on the rod.
    To see the real beauty of the rod you should cast it.

    Buzz,
    I can only imagine how fine that rod must feel. The quads have a feel all their own and when you get one like that one, it has to be and feel very special. There is little of that pre-embargo cane left and what is left of it is precious. You have one to be very proud of there, and being made by a legend in the business adds that much more to it.
