Fuji Titanium Framed Guides?
Posted by: Todd Theodore (---.fuse.net)

I've got a bunch of Fuji single foot, Y framed guides and small running guides that I want to sell. I think that most are titanium frames. But, I'm not sure.
Do all of Fuji's titanium framed guides have a T stamped on the foot? I have some that do and some that don't. I thought the T was for a different height guide of the same size. But, now I wonder if that doesn't stand for titanium. The small running guides which I'm almost certain are titanium, don't have a T. I did have one size 20 guide that was still in its package with TSYG written on it which is titanium. But, no T.
Fairly confused. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Todd

All of the recent model guides ( K-Series) will bear "T" for titanium as well as an "F" for Fuji on very small guides. However, older titanium may or may NOT have the designation. TSY should be Titanium.

Thanks guys.
I just don't want to charge somebody too much for guides. There's quite a price jump up to the titaniums. Don't want to cheat myself either. Maybe the Anglers Resource guys might know for sure.

If you have some guides of the same design and know what they are, weigh the questionable ones and compare. Some may know the weights of the guides you are questioning.
