Crafted with a weight of 1/8 oz (4 g), this French-made spinner is a classic example of European engineering in tackle design. The brass finish on this Blue Fox Vibrax 1, carrying product code 13279, remains clear and even across the 2" (5 cm) body. A distinct "MADE IN FRANCE" stamp is visible on the reverse side of the blade, a hallmark of earlier production runs for this model. The outer blade surface features the iconic fox logo and is marked "SUPER VIBRAX 1," identifying its size for light-tackle applications. Structurally, the lure features the patented two-part bell body designed to emit low-frequency sound during the retrieve. The treble hook is securely attached to the wire shaft, which shows minimal signs of use. With a condition rating of 4/5, the brass surfaces are clean and well-preserved. The clevis allows the blade to rotate freely around the upper shaft, maintaining the mechanical integrity of the spinner.
