Walt Carpenter


BROWNTONE
My rod making experiences
at both Payne and Leonard, and most importantly the desire to handcraft the
finest split bamboo rods, have given birth to a standard of rod excellence that
I'm now offering as the Carpenter "Browntone." These "classics" are made with the same
enthusiasm and integrity as the creations of my predecessors in this the "
The cane used to build your rod is from stock of butt cut "
The hard tungsten wire guides are wrapped with a rich mahogany brown, finely
tipped black to achieve the most striking coordination. All nickel silver
mountings are oxidized a deep black and are made of 18% alloy. These
"silver" mountings are made by me in my shop.
Each rod is finished with four coats of the finest tung-oil
spar varnish for years of trouble free service.
The rod is supplied with a hand sewn partitioned bag, and a heavy walled
aluminum case.
After 50 hours of dedicated, hand-work, the Carpenter "Browntone"
is ready to go fishing.
With this in mind, you can feel complete confidence in choosing a Carpenter
"Browntone" as your ideal.
