The number of VMC hooks (4x) that i have had straighten out, and snap at the eye when cut (to avoid the split ring) is what led me to try the mustad 5x. They are very strong, easy to sharpen, and never straightened. They are comparable in size and strength to vmc 6x but much less expensive. I mainly use the 3/0 and 4/0 trebles . I dont use vmc hooks at all anymore... I even remove them right away on all my super strike plugs and put on the mustad 5x
