Edwards Quadrate #40 Bamboo Fly Rod 7' 2/2 #4/5 [SALE PENDING]

3335


A nice Edwards Quadrate #40 bamboo fly rod, 7', 2-piece, 2-tip, for a #4 or #5 line. 3.1 ounces. Semi full flexing action. This rod has seen modest use with very little wear to the snake guides. It has suffered some bag-imprinting roughness though it is not bad enough to need a refinish. The cane has been lightly flamed with distinctively lighter nodes. The main wraps are brown with red edges and at the ferrules black with red edges. The stripper is a perfection and the snake guides are very high arch black H.S.S. The ferrules are squared to the rod shaft, oxidized jet black, and fit snugly. The grip is 6" long and squared at the front to the tenite black front cork check. Unfortunately, the grip and seat have been cleaned leaving them ridged. The seat is all cork and is flatted with a black cap and ring (the cap is slightly inletted). I suspect they are bakelite or a hard plastic. The rod bag is tan-colored poplin with “Edwards Quadrate” printed on it in maroon. The rod tube has a “W.E. Edwards + Son Mt. Carmel Conn.” data sticker, which is still legible but only about 70% intact.

Shipping Information

There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.
Other Terms
Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
