All the night n' gails that I've seen have permasteel hooks. If you're looking for permasteel (grey) they are definitely out there. I think the stainless were discontinued due to all the problems. If you want stainless siwashes that large I would look at mustads but you will probably have to sharpen them. If there is a strong 7/o hook out there that doesn't need to be sharpened I'd like to know about it and where I can get them.
