Brass coloring on the textured, scale-pattern blade offers a classic look for this French-made spinner. Stamped with 'SWISS SWING' and a size '5,' the blade rotates around a weighted, nickel-finished torpedo body. Identified by product code 16197, this specimen from Renosky Lures maintains the manufacturing standards of vintage European imports. A total weight of 1/3 oz (9 g) and a length of 3 1/4" (8 cm) provide the mass needed for accurate casting. The treble hook is finished with a hand-tied dressing of natural hair in a black and tan mix, creating a soft profile behind the metallic body. Hardware remains bright and the wire is straight, earning a condition rating of 5/5. The clevis allows the brass blade to spin freely around the nickel-plated central weight.
