Very good overall condition

The truncated Swiss-style ferrules have a perfect fit

For sale here is a 3 1/8" Hardy Perfect from the early 20's with ivorine handle and full length and unaltered smooth brass foot

The rod was custom built for a customer desiring one of Walt's rods in the classic Payne cosmetic style

I have produced many prototype or working examples that were cast and tested and then the customers' rods were made from these patterns
