[SmallieSmasher]

Wow, that's really nice, wish my Pixy was tuned by KTF...

Thanks everyone for the info! It fishes phenomenally, but there is only one problem with it.... its going to cause me to have to buy a rattle viper to pair it with

Well...at least you know what remedy is required in order to complete your fulfillment!

You might need to add a set of Megabass Hyper Corks or maybe even a set of original natural Daiwa Works corks to help set it off on the Rattle Viper - a perfect match for your amazing original KTF Pixy by the way!

Talk about misinformation!

The original KTF Pixy Dragboatdriver owns is in fact the real deal. They are extremely rare - very few, rumors of about 12 or so were ever built back in 2005. KTF manufactured a custom set of 6.4:1 gears and ported and tuned the stock spool as pictured. Rest assured that this is a genuine and extremely rare gem. Congrats on such a find!

As Gary and Ian have very eloquently said, the 2005 Red KTF Pixy is in fact very real. It was a modified and tuned 2005 Daiwa Airy Red. It has a tuned spool, upgraded bearings and a 6.4 gearset. I am not sure about the run size, but as I understand Daiwa was less than pleased with KTF's project. I hold two of these in my collection, both of which include the 5.8 gearset that was removed and the original KTF paperwork. I have modded the one I use regularly with a KTF carbon fiber handle, Steez anodized drag star, PX Type R cast cap, red levelwind screw, etc.

As has also been stated, in 2010, KTF released the KTF PX68 reels. These reels had upgraded bearings, some internal work and a special KTF spool. They were/are available in both RHD and LHD varieties and in limited quantities. The spool is wicked. I shot a pic of the RHD one that i have which is still unused. I have full KTF accessories (Swept handle, carbon fiber swept drag star, etc) on the LHD one I use regularly.

I also included a shot of my entire KTF family. It shows a pair of Alphas 105H (one blue and one purple), and a pair of T3 Air reels for which KTF makes the spool. These just arrived so I dont have feedback yet.

In any case, the KTF pixy varieties are among my favorite to fish! You will certainly enjoy yours.
Good Luck
Jay
