Sam Carlson Thomas Four Bamboo Rod 7'6" 2/2 #4/5 7 Weight Only very minuscules handling marksFor sale here is a Sam Carlson "Thomas Four" bamboo rod. Considered the holy grail by many cane rod enthusiasts, this rod feels best with a DT4 in my opinion. Medium fast action. Cork slide band reel seat. Burgundy silks tipped black. The rod weighs 4. 05 oz. and the ferrules are 12 64. Sam only made approximately 300 rods in his lifetime, very few of which bear the inscription "Thomas Four". This is a very rare and early Sam Carlson four sided rod
