Just got a big batch of American rooster saddles in various colors in the shop.
$12.00 for a whole lot of feathers. Probably more then you need, but one will last a long time for most surfcasters.
The VMC "clawpoint" is the ultimate Siwash. It has been discontinued though, I believe.
It's the one on the back of many of the Hab's Elite. NO rust, and almost certainly the strongest siwash available.
