Stamping "ITALY" directly onto the blade face marks this specific Panther Martin 6 as a piece of classic European craftsmanship. Featuring a vibrant contrast, the blade is finished in a bright orange on one side, while the inner face reveals a polished gold surface. This particular model, carrying Product Code 16013, measures 2" (5 cm) in length and tips the scales at 3/16 oz (6 g). The weighted teardrop body is painted in a traditional yellow with four distinct red dots, paired with a standard bronzed treble hook. As an unused specimen, it remains in pristine condition, showing the clean lines and original luster expected from a lure that has never seen water. The unique design employs a blade that mounts directly through the wire shaft rather than using a clevis, a signature feature that allows the hardware to sit closer to the body. This construction is highly favored by trout anglers for its ability to start spinning immediately upon retrieval in small streams.
