SHIMANO 13 Metanium Right High Gear - Model Name: Magnum - Handle Type: Right-handed Cleaned and maintained after each fishing trip, and stored with the mechanical brake and drag loosened. I believe there is almost no scratchiness or grinding feel. (Subjective and depends on usage) Cleaned and maintained. The handle knob has also been degreased and cleaned, so there is no stickiness. Please check the photos at the end for scratches. The last photo shows the oil and grease used. You can use it immediately after purchase. Oil and grease are not included. This is an auction for the main body only. Thank you for viewing.
