Weighing exactly 1/4 oz (7 g), this compact blade bait from Cotton Cordell measures 1 1/2" (4 cm) and represents a classic piece of American terminal tackle. The profile is finished in a high-contrast black and silver pattern, complemented by a bold red forehead plate. This flat surface on the head is a key design element, engineered to produce a distinct frequency as it moves through the water. Two mounting holes on the top spine provide versatility; rigging to the forward hole decreases resistance for higher-speed retrieves. This specific specimen, identified by product code 8746, maintains its original golden eyes and dual treble hooks. The condition is rated 5/5, exhibiting some honest wear where the base metal is visible beneath the paint layers near the tail and line-tie areas. Originally manufactured in the USA, the construction highlights the durability of vintage blade designs.
