Guarantee Mfg Chicago Smoothie Spoon, 3/4oz brass fishing spoon #21668

Stamped clearly into the lower curve of the brass body, the "SMOOTHIE PAT. PEND." markings identify a fascinating piece of American tackle history from Guarantee Mfg Chicago. Weighing in at 3/4oz (21g), this 3" (7.5cm) specimen represents a rare dual-purpose design that functions as both a weedless spoon and a bottle opener. The solid brass construction features a central screw and a heavy-duty wire weed guard. This specific lure, listed under product code 21668, remains in an unused state, showing only minor signs of storage from its time in a collection. On the upper portion, near the line tie, the manufacturer’s mark "GUARANTEE MFG CO CHICAGO" remains legible. The integrated cutout that serves as the bottle opener is as crisp as the day it was manufactured in the USA.
