TT opinion: Another very nice Hardy Perfect, large size in the 3 7/8″ diameter with unusual handle set towards the centre. I have seen these models a few times before with the offset handle. Long smooth brass foot, rim tensioner and 1905 internal check. Agate line guide with one hair line. Turns fine, no tight spots or drum rock. A good tight reel.
