Shimano doesn't but people have modified others to fit it. Pikemaster recommendrf against it though as the reel isn't designed for it and I can't remember what, but you can break something.

FWIW...
Daves Reel Service sells one. I have 2 D's and I have it on one and I have the stock handle on the other. I am sure there is some highly technical reason I should not have it on the reel that Pike Master understands that I do not but I have been using since Late May with no issue. Never had the handle engage and I have been nothing but happy with it...

I liked the reeling diameter/radius that the Calcutta D handle was set at so much that I set my Revo NaCL Power Handle to approximately that same length from center on that reel. If you're a guy that just wants a bigger beefier handle to hang on to when reeling I don't see the harm in having a powerhandle that is set to a comprable lenght to that of that of the stock handle, but I'm no expert.

I saw this Power Handle for the 300D and 400D
I will order some to see how they work out, I'm not a fan of Power Handles but I'll see how this handle works out.

This Power Handle is OK, it is balanced, H.D. won't bend, longer then the stock handle, has 2 ball Bearings in the foam Paddle. I will be stocking them for $49.95 installed. Fits any 300-400D Calcutta reels.
