Ian
D. Martin
Handcrafted Bamboo Fly Rods
from the United Kingdom Anglers
Collectibles is pleased to announce our new partnership with Ian D. Martin in
representing his outstanding handcrafted bamboo fly rods. Our world wide
base of customers will appreciate his fine English hand craftsmanship
and we are now taking orders for his fine split cane fly rods.
All Ian's rods are built on the finest English cane and finished in Ian's small workshop in
the North East of England, an area rich in limestone spate rivers and
small streams. The
'signature' or 'trade mark' of these rods, are the exquisite reel seat
assemblies. Ian
selects, turns and polishes the wood components himself. These are made
from exotic species of timber from around the world. The most popular is
the 'Burr Jarrah' a native Australian hardwood, which has fabulous hues
and figuring from rich red to mellow brown in colour. The lacquer finish
is a high lustre durable finish, polished to perfection to give that added
touch of luxury and exclusivity. All
guide whipping is done by hand. No machinery is used to save time and
possibly compromise quality. Ian
has worked hard to build a reputation for supplying only the highest
quality products. He will not compromise that by rushing work just to get
it out of the workshop. In
addition to the range of rods shown, Ian offers a 'bespoke service' and
'limited editions' are available for corporate gift, (minimum numbers
apply).
