T,
I can't really tell the difference - although a friend of mine showed me a really old (1960s) 7 inch model that did look and feel different than todays version. The real popular size was the 6 1/4 inch with hook hangers. The 7 inch screw eye model was Ok but the smaller one was hot during its time. Just didn't hold up well. I've heard of at least one needlefish manufacturer that will be releasing a skinny needlefish soon. About time - all the newer needles are fat and do have their applications. Those skinny models sure did the trick years ago.
