Wondering if there are any suppliers of Tonkin Cane laminations. The real stuff not Moso cane.

Aaron:
I think you will find, all of the cane laminations that are sold are Not Tonkin cane, for one simple reason. Tonkin rarily grows more than 1 1/2 in diameter at the base. I have a very good friend that imports Tonkin by the container load for making Fly rods. He told me its impossible to find it larger than that.
