A nice Chris Henshaw Brass Face Perfect Fly Reel, 2 5/8" diameter and set up for LHW. A very nice rendition of this early perfect with the caliper check design. Near mint condition with just a few of the tiniest traces of use, including some small mounting marks on the foot. The reel could not have been fished much at all. Spitfire finish. The brass winding plate sports a medallion which has "Chris Henshaw" and "Barnard Castle" lightly engraved in it. Tension adjuster and an ivorine handle. Pleasing click drag. Nice workmanship here which includes a coin-edge knurl on the frame. A great little trout reel for those who love British style reels. No bag.
