Good evening!
This is Kamimura from Hitotoki Works.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the shortage of parts for making trout handles <(_ _)>
We are working to resolve the shortage by the middle to end of this month!
Please wait a moment.
We received photos of the adjustable grip from a customer!
The rod building we will introduce this time is an interesting grip with a very creative structure!
What's more, it has a pretty cool grip.
↓Here is a picture of the finished grip↓
<Pattern 1>
<Pattern 2>
We use our own original grip joint system and reel seat parts that allow you to attach different rods, but the grip part is made by another company!
These are two unique and stylish cork grips.
This grip is an All Angle Grip from Scream Glide .
I thought they made two grips,
Wow!!!
It has a replaceable structure.
Original handle image
The original finished handle is an offset handle like this.
The grip part is fixed in place with bolts, making it an interesting handle that can be removed and attached.
There is a female screw embedded inside the grip.
Attach the removable grip to the Hitotoki Works reel seat
Is it possible to somehow attach this grip with an embedded female screw to the Hitotoki Works reel seat?
That's how they came to make interchangeable grips.
Therefore, a titanium bolt (M6 x 50 mm) was embedded inside the reel seat, leaving 15 mm exposed.
The reason for using titanium is to make it as lightweight as possible.
When gluing the titanium bolt, the gap between the titanium bolt and the carbon pipe inside the reel seat is filled by cutting a carbon pipe with an inner diameter of 6 mm into a ring and adjusting the gap before gluing the bolt.
The EVA ring under the reel seat also acts to prevent the grip from loosening!!
One of the fun things about rod building is that ideas like this open up endless possibilities for customization.
Thank you for teaching me a very interesting way to make grips <(_ _)>
I learned a lot.
This is a rod building challenge that I would definitely like to try!
