Fishing reel handle fixing structure

Abstract

A fishing reel which prevents fingers against damage even if they accidentally touch a loosening preventive member (9) during the winding operation of a handle (5), prevents a bait, dust and the like from sticking to the loosening preventive member as much as possible, and prevents a fishline from getting twined around the loosening preventive member (9). The handle (5) is threadedly fixed to the end portion of a drive shaft (4) by a threaded member (35), and the loosening preventive member (9) for preventing the threaded member 35 from loosening is fixed to the handle (5). The surface of the loosening preventive member (9), which is to be mounted to the upper surface (5a) of the handle (5), extending from the peripheral edge portion of the member (9) to the central portion thereof is formed in a smooth surface (9a).
