Thank you for viewing. I purchased this used several years ago. It's the Urushi (lacquer) version, so it was incredibly expensive. I remember it cost around 60,000 yen, though it was either used or an outlet item. It's a really good rod, and I used it for casting micro lures with ester lines, but my style changed and I no longer use it. The cork grip shows some deterioration. I hope someone can make use of it. I'm unsure of its value or current market price. Price negotiations are welcome. Rodio Craft Rob Lure ValkeIN Area Trout Major Craft Mukai Tiemco Wildcat
