I just had a quick look through my catalogues. The Abu 25 was introduced 1967.
 
Cheers, Mike.

They are a great tool. I have 3. Great while wading for flathead in the shallows & landing mulloway from tricky situations in the surf (have actually pulled a 48lb fish from the rocks which would not have been landed without it). There is always one in my beach haversack. They are also great for hanging on the wall.
