    Fenwick is history,probally because of the blank quality and they are no comparsion to Harnell.

    Well we all sure have our own opinions,so I will leave it at that.As far as Harnell / Hornell, I have not heard of Hornell,but perhaps you looked at a mis-spelling there and the rods are actually Harnell...that would be nice...lol

    I have built a few rods on Fenwick blanks in the past. They are pretty tough but IMO no comparison to the lastest SEEKER or Calstar blanks.
