Hardy Kenya Bamboo Fly Rod 8' 3/2 #6/7 8'9" and the nodes are twoA rare Hardy Palakona "Kenya" bamboo fly rod, 8', 3 piece, 2 tip, and while there is no line weight listed I'd try it with a #6 or #7. Serial "E84758" which dates the rod to approximately 1952. This is a scarce model, I've only seen a small handful of them over the years. The rod weighs 5. 1 ounces on my scale. Medium action, a bit faster than what I've normally found from older Hardy rods. Very good condition with some cosmetic wear that you'd expect
