Fantastic - from my perspective both versions look good - make two - one of each then you can get spoiled for choice !

The twin handled approach reminds me of the first time I saw that style of handle on a carp rod - actually a matched pair of brown fibatube blanks with split cork handles and fished by the good Mr Jim Gibbinson in the early 1970's .....happy days....

Thanks for your views :Thumb:
I think it will have to be the traditional look,truthfully once I had seen the mock ups my mind was made up but allways good to get the views of you chaps :Hat:
Now time to walk the dog,go pick up my new reading glasses and then get on with it.
There are three things that improve with age: wine, friendship and water sense, and there's no short cut.
