Who makes and sells ferrules out there besides the usual CSE, REC, and Golden Witch?  (Mike Fennell)

Other than the few dozen of us who make them out of bar stock (and in my case quite poorly) my research shows:

1.  Norman Agutters

2.  A guy in England who sells through Belvoirdale

3.  Tony Larson (a perennial favorite)

4.  The Jenkins' have a stash of Orvis ferrules

5.  Rick's Rods has NOS ferrules of various Mid-American makers' ferrules

6.  I think that list members Dave Henney and Dave Collyer have stashes that they sell from (pardon me guys if you don't)

7.  I've heard that you can beg them from Orvis  (Joe West)

Tony Larson - Rush River Rods

Very nice ferrules halfway between a standard and truncated length. Best price I know of.  (Jeff Fultz)

David LeClair...great quality and a super guy to deal with!  (Leo deMonbreun)

Tony Larson at Rush River Rods makes a real nice ferrule, both Super Z style, and step down.  (Mark Wendt)

AJ Thramer makes excellent ferrules.  I've been using them for the past 10-15 rods and am very happy!  (Bill Taylor)

I built two 7' Sir D's, used Golden Witch field grade on one and Tony Larsen's (Rush River) on the other. Tony's were easier to lap and fit. One note of caution, you need to clean the them out!  (Pete Van Schaack)

Has anyone tried the Field Grade Golden Witch ferrules? It seems Russ has stopped carrying my favorite Bellinger ferrules. I'd be interested in anyone's input.  (Shawn Pineo)

I have noticed that "Field Grade" ferrules seem harder to lap, that is require more elbow grease.  Is this because they are a lower % of nickel.  Anybody know?  (Darrol Groth)

I have had somewhat a similar experience with one of the name brand ferrules, however, I have not had any problems at all with Tony Larson's ferrules.  I have converted entirely over to Tony's ferrules.  (Joe Byrd)

Me too.  That is, almost exclusively.  The exception, of course, was this older set that I have had in the drawer.  You just can't beat Tony's stuff.  (Bill Harms)
