    Found on eBay, with bag attached. Again, Dutchman, what can you tell us about this swivel? Quality piece?

    Can't say that I have come across one of these, at least recently. It does look a little familiar. If it's the one I'm thinking of, it was on par with the AMF/Whitely ones

      Greetings Everyone, As we all know there is a ball hook swivel shortage going on currently. It’s really cool to see all the members who are taking it upon themselves to design swivels, thank you to those who are doing it. If anyone happens to be hunting for one, there is currently a vintage Porter 918 ball hook swivel

              It appears to have been through the wars, too bad.

                I got my Genesport about 10 years ago. You recommended it to me. Nice bag. Got it new from Genesport. Are they still around?

                  You ca also buy just the swivel for 9.99. Not sure if this is the same swivel as in the already posted link.

                  Canadian Swivel - DOESN'T SHIP TO CANADA!!!! WTF!! I may have to drink on Friday night because of this!

                    Unfortunately, no, they folded a few years ago. I had a chance to buy a couple years ago when I was visiting family in the Great White North, didn't do it, which I regret.

                      I have one Genesport swivel. The hook is so small and narrow that most speed bags won’t fit on it… Not worth $10 in my opinion.
