I used this reel until a few years ago, and have kept it in storage since then. I took good care of it, so while the exterior has some scratches, I personally don't feel any grinding or roughness when reeling. The line roller also moves smoothly. Please understand that this is an older model. I am also listing this on other platforms, so please be sure to comment before purchasing. The knob has been replaced with an RCS knob. The original knob is not included. The line is, I believe, around a size 1 GOSEN line, but please consider it as a bonus. It can still be used for fishing and is a valuable, classic reel, so please consider it. Popular model: Certate #SeaBass #Rockfish #Bass #Lure #Eging
