GUIDES & SILK:
As in our bamboo rods, all graphite rod guides are attached with pure silk thread. The beautifirl pure teal color surrounds the guide, and appears to float the guide's paws off the rod, just as elegantly as our bamboo rods. The single foot guides have a blued-black non reflective coating which wears to a patina as you use your rod. The stripping guides are the finest in long performance material, enhancing castablity for the life of the rod.
CORK & REEL SEAT:
All our 9' 3 piece saltwater fly rods in line weights 10 and 12 are fitted with a full wells grip. At the fore finger or thumb area of the cork, a section of burl cork, a Kane Klassics signature, is designed in. This burl cork is nicely colored and functionally more dense, providing a casting point which will remain functional for the life of the rod. The reel seat is up-locking aluminum blued gun metal with the same finish as a fine sporting weapon. The reel seat wood is elegant American black walnut burl.
The 9' 8 weight line rod uses a modified cigar cork grip still with the unique burl cork at fore finger position and a wonderful wood real seat of black walnut.
ROD ALIGNMENT MARKINGS:
All Kane Klassics rods have assembly markings at all ferrules. From the two piece rods to the multi section rods, all have these simple but important alignment aids. They allow quick rod assembly.
KANE KLASSICS HOOK KEEPER:
As with our bamboo rods, our graphite rod hook keeper is mounted one inch forward of the cork check, cosmetically pleasing and totally functional. Mounting the hook keeper away from the cork protects your finger from hook puncture while carrying the rod, another Kane Klassics signature feature.
LOGO:
Your rod is traditionally labeled using a rolled stamp Kane Klassics Logo into the butt cap of your rod. The rod's size, date of manufacture and serial number are hand labeled on every Kane Klassics rod with pride.
ROD CASE:
Every Kane Klassics rod comes with an aluminum rod case, with a functional and unique cap containing a breather hole. A burgundy rod cloth bag protects the rod in the case.
