Museum Archive: Vintage Len Thompson Northern King NK 2 D, 2/5oz Nickel / Red fishing spoon #12484

Weighing in at 2/5 oz (11 g), this brass spoon features the classic Northern King profile that first hit the water back in 1984. The Nickel / Red color pattern is applied over a high-quality brass body, with a silver-toned finish designed for visibility in deeper water. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, this specimen carries the product code 12484 and represents Len Thompson's Canadian manufacturing legacy. This specific lure is in 5/5 condition, showing no signs of wear on its polished surfaces or the single hook assembly. Anglers often reach for these when trolling for salmon, steelhead, or lake trout, relying on the heavy brass construction to reach the desired depths. The front of the spoon is stamped with the NK 2 D designation, while the back side is finished with a clean, reflective silver plating.
