This is a hackle that was sold in Japan in the 1990s and is now extremely rare. It has been discontinued, and new ones are no longer available. It's recommended for collectors, as well as those starting to tie flies, especially in the badger color, given the recent price increases of genetic hackles for dry flies. It has been used slightly, but it's still a great item that can be used for a long time. The scale is not included in the listing. The outer bag has deteriorated, so it will be shipped in a different bag. Please check the images carefully and purchase only if you are satisfied.
