| Signature Series Titanium 8500 1.6 SOLD | ![]() |
SOLD | Judy Charlton’s SST, an 8500 1.6. This reel was the tenth titanium made, and Jack made it especially for Judy. The custom leather case bears Judy Charlton’s name. The reel itself features the Charlton crest on the drag knob. |
| Signature Series Titanium 8500 1.2, with Jack Charlton’s signature SOLD | ![]() |
SOLD | This is the first Signature Series Titanium reel ever produced, and Jack Charlton engraved his own signature on the drag knob and filled it with 18k gold—standard for all signatures applied to the titanium models. The reel has never been fished, and is in pristine condition. |
| 8500 1.6 Spool only SOLD | ![]() |
$695 SOLD | A very rare spool, looking for a home. We are hoping that someone who uses their 8500 1.6 might purchase this spare spool to use with or replace one that is being used. The price reflects our desire to have this in the hands of someone still fishing their 1.6. |
| Elite Series 8400 .8 SOLD | ![]() |
$2995 SOLD | The Elite Series was made to be a more affordable option instead of the Signature Series, and the two were produced at the same time. Most buyers, however, were not deterred by the slightly higher price for the Signature Series and as such the Elite Series was produced in very small quantities. |
| Signature Series 8400 .8 SOLD | ![]() |
$3495 SOLD | A very early 8400 .8, and one of the few reels in Jack and Judy’s collection of reels that is set up for left-hand wind. A perfect example of an unused 8400 .8 with the original cork drag. |
| Signature Series 8400 1.2, matte finish, two extra spools SOLD | ![]() |
$4495 SOLD | The 8400 .8 was produced in low numbers, and the 1.2 version of this reel was even rarer; perhaps only the 8400 1.6 was manufactured in lower quantities. |
| 8350C, matte finish, both spools, the first produced SOLD | ![]() |
$2995 SOLD | The first 8350C produced, after early prototypes, was this reel. It features the rare matte finish discussed above, and as such is doubly rare example of Charlton history. The 8350 was a very popular size, and this one comes with both the 1-5 and the 1-2 spools. |
| Signature Series 8550C, matte finish, with both the offshore and the Spey spools SOLD | ![]() |
$6495 SOLD | Another example of the matte finish, this time on the 8550C with both the offshore and the Spey spools. These two spools are the rarest and most sought after of the spools for the 8550C frame, and as a set they represent a unique example of a Charlton frame/spool set that was only produced in this finish and configuration once. |
| Signature Series 8600B, matte finish, with Judy Charlton’s signature SOLD | ![]() |
$6495 | Early on, Charlton Outdoor Technologies, Inc. offered the Thin-Line series of reels in a matte finish. The Thinn-Line Elite were made with a combination of matte and gloss finish, and the Signature Series (that became, along with the 8350C and 8450C, the heart of the Charlton line) were made with a gloss finish. |
| Signature Series 8550C with offshore spool, Judy Charlton’s signature SOLD | ![]() |
5495 USD SOLD | Judy’s personal 8550C, with the finned offshore spool. A perfect example of the 8550C, bearing Judy Charlton’s signature, never lined or fished. Ships with the original pouch. |
