The retractor is incredibly light and fits perfectly in my gear. The pen clip attaches smoothly to my Simms pack without any punctures. I use it during long fishing trips and appreciate how it keeps my tools within easy reach.

After switching from the standard model, I noticed a real difference in weight. The carbon fiber construction makes a noticeable impact during long days on the water. The cord is durable and the clip stays secure.

It works well and is easy to use. The only minor issue is that the cord can slip slightly if not fully extended. Otherwise, it’s a solid upgrade for anglers who care about weight.
