This is a famous Ibaraki rod, the "Hinuma Rod." It's a natural bamboo rod, approximately 1.2m long, with a closed length of about 0.8m, and includes a reel seat. It's handmade by Wakao Kobo Yoshida. The guides are small, which I think makes it good for drop fishing. I think it would be useful for boat goby fishing, black sea bream hechi fishing, smelt, etc. I'm selling it because it's been sitting unused in my closet since I bought it.
