A weight of just 1/16 oz (2 g) makes this specific Panther Martin 1 an ideal choice for delicate presentations in small trout streams. Manufactured in Italy, this piece features the brand's signature blade-through-shaft design, where the oval blade sits directly on the wire without the need for a clevis. On this specimen, the front of the blade displays a weathered green and white finish accented with small dark dots, while the reverse side retains a gold-tone appearance. The lead teardrop body shows a natural gray hue, sitting just above the weathered treble hook. Identified by product code 14493, this lure measures 1 inch (2.5 cm) and is rated at a condition of 3/5. Looking closely at the hardware, one of the points on the treble hook is broken off, indicating its history on the water. The wire shaft is finished with a tight, hand-wrapped eyelet typical of these classic Italian-made spinners.
