Hardy Perfect Seeking Information

[Troutnut4]

I have a narrow spool LHW Perfect with an agate line guard and ivory handle. I would be interested to know when this model was produced. All I see are reels with black handles and polished metal line guards. I purchased this reel new and un-fished with papers in 2014 and at the time it had been available back in 2012 at $930.00 usd. Any info would be appreciated.

Unfortunately I don't have any additional info to share, Troutnut, but I have a similar reel and am following this thread with interest.

I picked this up early this year for an embarrassingly small sum. No sign of having been lined or mounted on a rod, but I intend to change that. I haven't seen many with an agate line guard and this handle - a visually pleasing combination in my opinion.

Most likely your reels are the 2009 re-issue Hardy reels
