Fine work. Love the shape and dimensions especially on your top handle. Very well done.
If this is your first attempt it is amazing.

Thanks! I've done two single handers, this is my first spey handle. Also the first one I've turned on the blank, which had me a bit nervous because there's no turning back!

For a first long spey handle turned on the blank trust me it is very brave. I have been a very low volume custom builder for too many years and I still sweat and stress when it comes to turning.
Your natural Cork looks very nice quality. Tough to find these days.

Thanks again for all who helped, I think I'm down shaping. Just need to decide if I want to urethane and cork seal or leave it natural.
