Luhr Jensen KROCODILE or Gibbs CROC?

[Eazy]

Who was here first?.....One seems to have copied the other as the two names are almost the same? Maybe?, I dunno.

If you can find any of the original Delfin " Alligators " the true silver plated ones with the red stripe on one side, beg, borrow or even steal them, they are that good. This doesn't incude the knockoffs or other spoons manufactured under the same name.

Gibbs was out much before the Jensen. Both companies have distinguished pasts but I prefer the Rufus Gibbs story. Rufus was a dude from Peterborough who moved to Vancouver...interesting as to how the company eventually changed hands but always stayed in the family. OH well...almost as good as reading the bible on a Sunday morning.

Thanks for the input!

I've noticed tho that the Krocodile offers some of their spoons in different weights, but have the same physical size, eg; two spoons are 2.5", but one is 3/8oz and the other is 5/8oz, which makes them very versatile.....as well as landed me my personal best Speckie!
