Hardy Perfect 4 1/4" fly reel - Dup. MKII check

VFT11992


For sale here is a 4 1/4" Hardy Perfect wide drum fly reel with Duplicated MKII check from the late 1920's. Full length ribbed brass foot. The reel is in excellent condition, with one notable repair recently. The tension regulator screw was seized and has now been replaced by Bill Archuleta. The original regulator screw was saved and will be included with the sale. Nicely aged ebonite handle spins freely. No line burns on frame or pillar. Professionally engraved initials on winding plate. Replacement spool screw but is shaped and aged perfectly. No cracks, dings or chips. I'm pretty certain I've not encountered a Hardy Perfect with as strong a check as this one, especially with the tensioner engaged. This will make someone very happy and is priced consistent with its unique attributes.

There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.

Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
