Omori Seisakusho Diamond Knight 666
Omori Seisakusho (also known as Omori Manufacturing Co.) was a Japanese company known for producing quality fishing reels, often branded as "Diamond" reels.
Diamond Knight 666. The number 666 likely indicates the size or a specific model line within the "Knight" series.
It is a spinning reel, as identified by its fixed spool design and bail arm mechanism.
Historical Context
The Golden Era (1960s–1970s): Omori Seisakusho was one of Japan’s premier spinning reel manufacturers during this period. They were famous for their "Diamond" brand, which was synonymous with durability and smooth mechanics.
The Manufacturer's Manufacturer: While they sold reels under their own name, Omori was a major Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). They built legendary reels for Western brands like Shakespeare, Pflueger, and Noris. If you find an old Shakespeare 2000 series reel from the early 70s, there is a high chance it was built in the Omori factory.
The Knight Series: The "Knight" line was a mid-to-high tier series within their catalog. The 666 designation typically refers to the reel's size—in this case, a medium-sized model suitable for general freshwater or light saltwater use.
Design and Build Quality
The Diamond Knight 666 is characterized by the "all-metal" philosophy of its time:
Durability: Unlike modern reels that rely heavily on graphite and plastic, the 666 features a die-cast metal body and a heavy-duty rotor.
Internal Gearing: It typically uses a classic worm gear or high-grade oscillation system, which many vintage collectors argue provides a more "connected" feel than modern, lightweight counterparts.
Aesthetics: Known for its classic silver and black finish, the reel often features a wooden or high-quality plastic handle knob and a robust bail arm that was designed to last decades rather than seasons.
Legacy and Rarity
Omori Seisakusho eventually ceased operations in the late 1980s or early 1990s as larger competitors like Shimano and Daiwa moved toward mass-market dominance and composite materials.
Today, the Diamond Knight 666 is a "cult classic" among vintage tackle enthusiasts. It is prized not just as a display piece, but as a "user" reel—anglers still fish with them because their simple, rugged design makes them easy to service and nearly impossible to break under normal conditions.
