Stamped clearly into the nickel-plated metal is the REFLECTO name and size 1, identifying this vintage USA-made classic from Barracuda. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length and weighing 3/16 oz (4.5 g), the spoon features a series of parallel ridges along its curved surface. These grooves are designed to maximize light reflection from the bright nickel finish. A dressing of yellow feathers is bound to the single hook using a wrap of red thread at the shank. This specific specimen, cataloged as product code 18497, utilizes a mechanical screw-fastened hook assembly, a hallmark of Barracuda’s practical design for hardware maintenance. In 5/5 condition, the metal surfaces show a bright luster and the feathers remain full. A small, sturdy split ring is located at the nose for line connection.
