You can even see where the plier marks are on the reel seat thread from trying to get it off.
I wonder which would be cheaper though? trying to get a custom replacement from st criox? or goin through a rod builder?

They must be the same reel seats then. I don't think st. croix would custom anything, just send you another factory mojo. You can strip the grip yourself to bare blank, I believe the reel seats are just glued or epoxied on, maybe a heat gun could coax it off? I would prefer no reel seat at all and just tape the bastard on. I'm sure it would be a quick remedy from a professional builder, can't imagine it costing you too much.
