Question about Penn 24-56 handles

[foakes]

Sorry, Mike -- I do not have that handle...

Keep trying this site, ebay, and CL.  You may find a complete reel with the handle you want -- as cheaply as buying the handle by itself.

Also try Randy on our site at Vintage Offshore, or Berinson's.

Randy will treat you very fairly -- Berinson's will be higher, and they will make a good profit (nothing wrong with them doing that, if you get the hard to find item you need).  

Or try one of Alan's handles --

Or find the red knob you like -- and another 24-56 in a different color -- and just switch out the grips.

Good luck -- if I run across one -- I will get it for you.

Best,

Fred

The ones I have are the same way ,what I end up doing is I put the handle on a vice and use a drift punch smack theThe press in fitting it tightens it up , just use kroll oil on it or corrosionx it works great.
