Daiwa Nidaime Kare-houshi (Second Generation Kare-houshi) 8 shaku (2.4 meters), 4-piece Some modifications due to use Closed length: 72 cm Weight: 42g Paper-wrapped rod plug substitute Non-genuine rod bag included This is the popular second-generation Kare-houshi. It shows signs of use, and there is a modification that does not affect use, located at the tip below the ho-mochi (middle section of the rod). It is slightly thicker, like a protective coating. There is also paint chipping on the joint sections. The grip is also dirty. Please examine the photos carefully. There are no problems in actual use, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. The action is a slightly tip-dominant, mid-action. This is a popular rod, so how about it if you want to try it out? Recommended for those who are okay with it being usable.
