This rod both practical value, but also the value of collections,it is made by high-grade natural bamboo,
Though it seems the maker used epoxy in the pictures, he uses all body varnish in fact. Because epoxy is harmful for bamboo rod.
This bamboo species originally grew on only approximately 190 km2 (48,000 acres) up the Sui River in the Tonkin Gulf region of Guangdong Province in China. It is said to be one of the strongest bamboo species because of its high density of fibers. This high density is what the bamboo fly rod maker is after because this gives the rod its strength and flexibility. This, however, is not the only reason that bamboo rod builders use this species. It also is selected because of its straightness, and well-spaced nodes.
In order to make this type of fishing rod, the bamboo culms are split and then split again into smaller and smaller strips, which are then planed and glued together to form a blank. This process, together with the wrapping of the guides with very fine silk thread, varnishing and making of the cork grip and wooden-nickle silver reel seat,nickle silver ferrules, at least take over 60 hours to finish all the process.
