It wouldn't actually surprise me as some of the Korda guys use Graeme's nets when off camera.

Damian Clarke is also a big Dymag fan. Wouldn't surprise me if they put the Dymag net out under licence, The Knet.

It would surprise me. If you want to make any £££ profit the Korda RRP would be massive.

Well if it is it wont be graeme putting them together. And graeme never made the handles he just built them up. It could be true as i believe the handles are available to import if bought in bulk.Harrisons used to import the 2 piece handle but not for some years.

I've heard the new net is based on the old Don's of Edmonton springbow net. Tubular spreader block reverses taper handle. And if you watch the latest Neil Spooner vlog from Korda. The net floats without the need.of a net float.

Have you seen/handled one of the korda nets? As good (light and stiff) as the original dymags? I would imagine yes if they are using the exact same pole/arms
Never managed to get hold of a Dymag so excited at the prospect of getting my hands on one.

They are as light but not used one to say 100% as rigid but they're very well made.I nearly sold my mk3 dymag as was very tempted get the korda net when released

Interesting - any idea when they'll be released?
Would be curious to see the RRP - imagine they'll be cheaper than Dymag due to the buying power/mass produced nature or equally may be more expensive as there'll be advertising/consultants to pay. I don't think people will be willing to pay much more for a net though....
