[IOS Factory] Cardinal Premium Wood Handle Knob (1 Piece) *HKWD

■Cardinal Premium Wood Knob



Popular ABU Cardinal
IOS has realized easy-care, bearing-less operation and precision rotation regardless of the season or weather by inserting a high-precision oil-impregnated resin liner into a newly shaped wood knob with improved fluidity, while respecting the shape of the original taste.


■Feature

1　Low & wide shape and just-fit

The wood knob has been machined to the limit, and its flowing three-dimensional shape fits the shape of the finger as perfectly as possible.
The wide area and ideal shape are ideal for naturally transmitting the power of the violent movements of minnowing, and as a result, it also has beauty as a functional beauty.








2　Natural wood that can be aged and enjoyed

The surface treatment is an oil finish that develops a distinctive flavor the more it is used.
Aging effects are also part of the fun.
The surface of the wood knob has a rough surface treatment to prevent slipping.
In addition, the surface can be easily sanded to any desired shape.
Daily maintenance can be performed by applying IOS Shirokuma grease to improve grip and keep the gloss moist and shiny forever.


3　Water-resistant! Non-slip all-weather real fishing principle knob




Oil-impregnated high-precision resin liner is inserted inside the wood knob.
The bearing-less design ensures easy care and comfortable retrieval even if the lure runs out of oil or is submerged in water.
It suppresses the variation in rotational accuracy that is common with wood knobs, resulting in comfortable rotation no matter what the season or weather conditions.
