DeerhairTom 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2007 Could someone with a DynaKing Barracuda take a measurement for me please. I need the measurement of the arm from the point where the horizonal shaft makes the downward bend to the end of the jaws extended out. I have a renzetti, but I am considering the 'cuda for more clearance in the "v" section, for such steps as splitting tails for one example. The Renzetti at best is 1 3/4 inch. If not enough clearance on the 'cuda, I may opt for the Pro model. Thanks all, DeerhairTom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redwings1 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2007 If I understand you correctly, with the jaw fully extended the disatnace from the down turn in the arm to the tip of the jaws is 3.5" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeerhairTom 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2007 Thanks Redwings, that's what I was looking for. I may get to try one this weekend after all. With my master, I can push the jaws up, but then the rotation axis is out of wack. I will try a 'cuda and then choose 'cuda or Pro. Thanks again.

Guest Report post Posted February 5, 2007 I have a renzetti and a DK barracuda jr. trekker. There is a big difference in "left hand room" while tying. I love my Dk and only use my ren as a travel rig or if I am tying small stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted February 5, 2007 I'm with you Sawcat. That's the main reason I chose the Cuda over the Renzetti and the Peak. I just ordered an HMH Spartan with midge jaws for small hooks. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeerhairTom 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2007 Thanks guys, that is exactly what I was looking for. I like the term, "left hand room" Sawcat. That explains my concern better than my babbling did. DeerhairTom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
