I think the picture tells the story.
yeah, deja vu all over again looking at that pic. I've had the same thing happen. that is NOT an issue with the heavy wire hooks.
I like the heavy wire hooks, but beads fit strangely on them.
I like that hook a lot but in larger sizes like that you do run the risk of the hook bending as it did. It was great when Skalka had a size 6 with the same profile.
