Limited Edition 40th Anniversary Paddle
Ten-Tec and Bencher are pleased to announce a limited edition iambic paddle manufactured to celebrate our 40th anniversary. A total of 200 units will be built. This paddle is based on the classic Bencher paddle design but features a spring tension adjustment not found on the classic design, blue finger paddles, the Ten-Tec 40th anniversary logo in aluminum on the top and each unit will be individually strike serial numbered. Ten-Tec’s last custom paddle project in 2003 was a near instant sellout; we are taking orders now for this paddle at $169.00, with initial shipments to begin in mid- to late- July. Of course, any order placed will not be charged to your credit card until the day the item ships and can be canceled prior to shipment.
