This is a standard 8500 1.2, made after the switch to the carbon fiber drag material and the ½ inch drive that accompanied the change. As a reel to use, this is a perfect one. It comes with a spare spool, also unused and in its own green Cordura case.

8450C, with all three spools SOLD $2995 SOLD

The 8450 was one of the most popular reels Charlton made, and this one was in the hands of the man himself.

Judy Charlton has included photograph of Jack fishing this reel, and it is as he left it.

Thinn Line 8500 .8 SOLD $2495 SOLD

This is a beautiful example of the Thinn Line series of reels. The drag knob and exterior of the spool is the matte finish for which the Thinn Line series is known, and it also features the standard cork drag and ¼ inch drive that’s standard on all Thinn Line and Thinn Line Elite models.
