Shimano looking spool. Need a bigger pic for a closer look.

The best I can do is a zoom of the same picture and that doesn't reveal much.

looks like one of these cheap and nasty copies from China. Stay well clear, the handle folds over under a bit of pressure and the rear drag works for about 15 seconds until it breaks - been there, done that.
