Just wondering what people's thoughts are on Korda Kranks?

In reply to Post #1
I quite like them on certain rigs.... Used them on the German rig to good effect

Size four Krank X is a great all round hook.

One of my 'go to's' using method now, braid hooklink, size 4 crank and 12mm or smaller bait!

I say now, been using them around 6/7 years, recent by my standards

Very useful hooks for certain rigs.

Sharp, very wide gape and also lightweight.....

Cheers guys, just started fishing a water that has a barbless hook only rule. So I thought the shape of the Krank would stay in better.

I have been using kranks almost exclusively for the past 3 months, pop-ups, noodle rigs, all sorts.

They have been excellent.

I dont bother with the kamakura as i sharpen hooks myself. They sharpen up really well and very easily, I have buried a sharpened hook into a stick before and the point was still in good nick

They look like re-badged Owner Tsuysohi to me.

Not quite. The krank don't have a straight point. Pics of it on the website you linked.

I've used those Owners on/off for years and the Krank is not the same at all.
