Armory 25 and Armory 35 Round Profile Level Wind Reels On the new larger models we have retained the same outstanding features that have proved so popular on the Armory 15 as well as ensuring the strength and durability of the heavy-duty level wind system. The most innovative design on the new Armory reels is the pa-tent-pending Maxel Karman System ( the Integrated Lever Drag System) , which is aimed at eliminating spool lock. What is KARMAN SYSTEM ? The Karman System enables the spool shaft to connect more effectively with the drag lever. When the drag lever is in the Free position, the drag plate disengages with the spool smoothly even after a lengthy fight. This means the reel goes to zero drag without any drag force , it’s a breakthrough when it comes to issues surrounding spool lock when a lure gets snagged between rocks. In addition the Karman System delivers more precise drag ad-justment as the setting position is more accurate. This is particularly useful when using ultra-thin braided line during slow pitch jigging and allows for more control and less breakages. The feel of the movement of the drag lever is greatly improved. Anglers can feel the suction when moving the drag lever from higher to the Free position. The movement is easier and faster.
