Sure, I get that. But then why not sell hand sharpened only? The price difference isn't that big, even more so with the number of faulty hooks I throw away unused. I love their hooks though, don't get me wrong.

Not everyone wants a super sharp, one fish or one cast hook. If you fish on gravel pits those points are going over more often than not on some spots.
I still use the JHSS hooks and just tie plenty of rigs up, but I'm happy with a handful of fish a year. If you're fishing a heavy stocked day ticket you may have different priorities.
Lots of threads on here with people asking for sharp out the pack but not hand honed hooks.

Exactly this
@ Calabro, you say the price difference isn't that big but the JH Muggas are nearly twice the price of the standard Muggas.

Why is it the wrong thread. Hand sharpened hooks. Others are talking about different brands.

Well, that sounds logical. I never fish those (not from the UK either), so from that perspective I do get it.
@Yonny: the price difference is around 50% over here, but if I would count the chemically sharpened hooks i bin its quite a bit less - maybe I just justified buying myself the hand sharpened ones and giving them a chance then.
