A classic silver 'S' finish defines this 3/32oz (2.5g) specimen, which remains unused and preserved in its original vintage packaging. Hand-crafted from balsa wood in Finland, this Rapala Original Floater F5 (Product Code 21629) measures 2" (5cm) and embodies the foundational design legacy of Lauri Rapala. The construction features a dark spine transitioning into a silver-scaled flank with a vibrant red accent at the throat and traditional yellow-and-black painted eyes. Its clear diving lip is engineered to reach depths between 2ft (0.6m) and 6ft (1.8m) when casting or trolling. This specific item is rated as condition 6, being unused and maintaining the factory-fresh appearance of its balsa body and original hardware. The lure is housed in its classic two-piece box alongside the original instructional leaflet that speaks to its hand-tuned and tank-tested heritage.
