  • Cheers, I bought it because of its weight (17.5) and short(ish) length (57)*and its got a lovely taper to it and felt "right". I've had a new ferrule fitted by Bob Akers, I just didn't like the long ferrule phoenix use.

    I think the butts amboyna but cant swear on it ....

                              worked the first time

                              forget the attachment function in TSF as it is not the best
                              continue with a image site like imgur, photobucket, etc.
                              question - does your site give you the ability to copy the IMG code for your image? I use photobucket and for a selected image you get several options and obesity is IMG. If you copy this code into the post the image is displayed and not the url.
