I’ll I can say is spectacular. Both the craftsmanship and the catch. I’d love to see a replica of this reel in a 4wt size.

Adam, big thanks for sharing this with us - what a great looking reel.
I bet it screams with a big fish on... man oh man.
Cool bearing design.

Is real Ebonite still a challenge to source ?
and while you are here, is a reel 4 in the works ?

What an absolutely deluxe post.
I ooze jeoulosy.

Very tasty reel. Enviable in every way. A few years ago I bought a supply of ebonite rod from Edmund (sp?) Scientific. Sold as educational prop for science classes, sparks. Do no recall if they were still selling cat skins! at the time. Handy for crank knobs.
