I have an F. T. Williams 'Craftsman Rod' "The Dorset Deluxe," a three section, 10ft 6in., all split cane which I bought retail. Pictures on my little website.

I know Loop Erminder has one too.

There are a couple of examples of their rods here :-

I'm not sure where they were before, but they seem to have ended up sharing the premises of Pegley-Davies on the Hersham Trading Estate, Robbi.
