Kyoku (Extreme) Tenkawa 14.3 shaku (approx. 4.3 meters) 5-piece construction. The tip is made with two layers. The grip has maki-e (lacquer sprinkled with gold or silver). It's a stiff rod. Other details are the same as those for Tamasei's rod. Both the rod and the rod bag are beautiful. It was returned to me on September 21, 2021, after the fire-curing process.
