Hardy Uniqua Reel 2 5/8" 8'6" some slight wear to theA nice Hardy Brothers Uniqua fly reel in a rare 2 5 8" size. RHW. Circa 1925 production. This little Uniqua was the smallest size of this model that Hardy made, and it has a smooth brass foot and the early horseshoe latch. It comes with the MKII check, and it is at least 95% of its original leading is intact. There is no spool wobble, and there are no line burns, dents, or scratches. A great little example of this collectible size.
