Titanium. not a cheap material and not an easy material to work with.

To be honest I don't think thats got anything to do with it... sure Titanium is pricey and not the easiest thing to work with.... I don't think these guys can, or should ever feel like they would need to try justify the cost of their products... its artwork, and hand crafted to the highest level.... If you can afford it, fantastic, I wish I could.... But I thinking trying to convince anyone that they should pay $1790 for a fly reel because its made out of Titanium is insulting our intelligence...Originally Posted by Korrie
I think you're better off stating the price and letting it be... those who appreciate it, recognise it for what it is, and most importantly can afford it, will be happy to pay... the rest of us will keep dreaming! :-)
