Orvis Wes Jordan Battenkills

What weights and lengths did Orvis produce in this model with the leather tube cover?

I want to seek a 3/2 - 7’ to 8’ - 5 or 6 weight. Don’t want to look for a rod that was not made.

All "Wes Jordan" rods were 2-piece. The leather tubes were also sold separately, so it may be possible to find a 7', 7 1/2', or 8' 3-piece rod in a leather tube, nut it won't be marked as a Wes Jordan...and it won't be cheap either, but it will be a very nice rod!
