I was trying to work out the CI4 as a formula, and only looking into what Shimano were saying about there 'carbon interufusion'. Obviously they weren't made of CI4 (formula), as then they'd dissolve So I'm guessing the + in CI4+ is just a more tightly woven/ compressed construct of the standard CI4 composition material to increase density and therefore strength (or decrease weight depending on how you look at it) much like how rod blanks are made stronger by compressing them?

A mate of mine who ordered it for me sent me the photo. I won't actually get my hands on it until Friday when I see him next. I'm of the belief that its bigger than my 51E and smaller than a 201E. I think its a touch lighter than a 51E Chronarch too.

Comparison with a Chronarch 51E and how it looks on the Samurai 251.

I fished my chronarch ci4 for about 12 hrs on the weekend. Such a nice reel. Awesome casting drags super smooth. Would match up great with the samurai
