NFC Blanks
I've got some NFC ~ North Fork Composite (Gary Loomis) blanks available for sale. NFC blanks are the same blanks used to build Edge rods. I ordered these awhile back with ambition of building these swimbait rods, but I've transitioned more into building saltwater rods.
Prefer to do local (Escondido or Poway) face to face deals due to the length of these. Also, I've got components if you need those to complete your builds on these blanks.
(3) SWB809 IM-LMX rated 6-16oz un-sanded with the following specs. These are on-sale currently for $125 online but I'm looking to get $100 each. I've got a complete rod built that you can pull on
(4) SWB 807 rated 1/2 -5oz These retail for $251 online, I'm looking to get $125 each
(2) SWB808 rated 1/2 -8oz These retail for $258 online, I'm looking to get $125 each
(2) MUH868 rated 3 -8oz These are on sale currently for $125 online but I'm looking for $100 each. I've got a complete rod built that you can pull on

Re: NFC Blanks
I've used their blanks a bit, and they're all a bit high on power and faster action than I was expecting. That said it's probably better for swimbaiters.

Re: NFC Blanks
Yeah, these are all designed for swimbaiting and most are parabolic and niche specific, except for the blank that is rated 8-16oz, it's a broomstick that can handle Hinkle trout or Roman Made Mother with ease.
I'm currently building a NFC MB 765-1(X-Ray NEO) 7'6" with the following specs and it feels pretty spot on. I'm planning to use it as a frogging and bigger top water baits.
length:7’6″
line: 12-25lb
lure: 5/8-2oz
pieces: 1
type: Carbon/Zentron
action: Mod-Fast
power: Med Heavy
Here's the handle configuration that I've got so far.
