If I buy one I gotta sell one …that’s the deal with wifey
Pre war ..FAT handle
Long brass foot
Excellent internals and cosmetics/patina
Two blemishes in the form of line burns shown in pics ..otherwise it’s as it should be ..no cracks anywhere ..maybe 1mm or less of drum play ..the sound/growl alone is worth the price..they just don’t make them like this anymore
PayPal, Venmo or personal check
725.00 shipped to USA ..international add $25

Wow. Those line burns look epic! That reel has some stories to tell.

Bump with a price reduction..this reel would balance a long spey rod very well

Do you know the weight of the reel without backing?

 

[davidstrout]

I do not know exactly but will weigh when I get home later

I would imagine around 20-22oz based upon experience

Do you know the weight of the reel without backing?

If it helps my 1946-66 4 1/4" weighs 17 oz empty and 19.8 oz with fly line and backing

Interesting. 17oz is too light for my application. 20+ oz is preferred (17' rod).

 

[davidstrout]

No time to take off teh backing

Weight is 22.75 oz with 250 yards dacron 30lb

Is this left or right hand retrieve?

 

[davidstrout]

right hand although the pawls can be flipped for an adequate swap..not as intended tho

 

[whale pass-AK-kris]

Thanks, right hand is what I am interested in. I need to give it some thought though,I have purchased a # of items lately and I need to stay within my budget.
Thanks,
Kris
