Abstract
In a fishing spinning reel, a cylinder is connected to the outer end of a handle lever adapted to rotate the main body of the reel, and one end of a handle stay is slidably inserted into the cylinder. This end is provided with an annular groove, a pair of 180.degree. apart axial notches connected to the groove and a key pin with a portion received in the groove. A spring is contained in the cylinder to urge outwardly the handle stay so as to cause either one of the notches to engage the key pin. To the outer end of the handle stay is rotatably connected a handle knob so that the knob can be folded inwardly or erected outwardly by forcing the handle stay into the cylinder and then rotating 180.degree..
