It took them over three months to finish my grips.
I ordered a pair of MB-736 blanks on Aug 14th. Hopefully I get them before Thanksgiving.

Re: NFC shipping
It took a little over three months to get my grips. A few of the handles were uneven, not as carefully made as the CFX version. I've read some people received grips with no flaws.
Blanks arrive on time, sometimes sooner.

Re: Scrimless NFC
It seems opinions vary on the type of NFC blank. I've been very happy with the steelhead and salmon blanks. These blanks seem to have a good reputation. The opinions on the bass blanks vary. I'm open to using blanks from NFC, Point Blank, Rainshadow or any of the quality manufacturers. I wish Point ...

Gorgeous. Where did you purchase the grips? I don't see them listed on North Fork's site.

Re: What piece of cheap or tackle gear do you use and love?
I got a bunch for my friends and myself. It's pretty handy. http://anglersresource.net/Portals/anglersresource/new/speedthreader.jpg TW, Bass Pro, and Cabelas don’t carry them. Would appreciate advice on web stores. Thanks Fred I responded to your PM yesterday. I don't know if your PM inbox is full...

Re: Rod Geek, Rain Shadow, and more rod reviews
My first rod build was on a Rainshadow RX7 fly blank, in the old Olympic green color. The rod is a nice, medium fast action. I have a RS XST1085 blank for salmon I want to wrap in the next month. My order with Mudhole was placed today. I'm still waiting for in stock Curado K so I can static load the...

Their new website doesn't recognize my login username and password. I don't know if they kept the database for customer accounts.

North Fork Composites, another 50% off sale
North Fork Composites has another 50% off sale. NFC recently had the 50% off sale this past March and April, and July last year. They revamped their website and it looks nicer. I wonder what's going on with them :-k . In a previous thread someone mentioned they might be trying to raise capital. I re...

Re: NFC blanks
That's real clean looking. I'll eventually build the two steelhead blanks I got from the recent NFC sale.MardukFIN wrote:

Re: North Fork Composites
My first order was placed on the 5th and delivered on the 22nd. I placed another order on the 17th that I'm still waiting for.
I've never owned a blank from the old Loomis or NFC. The pair of steelhead blanks I got are pretty damn impressive.

Re: building your own rods/mhx
I was hooked after I built my first rod. Rod building is just another aspect of the sport or hobby, like fly tying or lure making. In general I like creating and making things, so rod building was a natural fit. I can customize the rod build to what I want. It's satisfying catching a fish with a rod...

Re: North Fork Composites
Damn, I couldn't resist. I bought two St 905-2 HM for salmon rods.
So do any of you know how often NFC has sales?
