Title: Gamakatsu 604
Post by: BareKnuckleJigs on 10/16/18 00:44 UTC

This hook is listed as "Nickel Silver" but I'm looking for Black Nickel.

Is this description just a typo/mistake or are these hooks actually Nickel Silver finished?

21 is correct, these are the hooks we distribute.  They do have a black tint to them.

Tanks Bou'Cou, Fellas.
I did not know that's what "NS" stood for.
Thanks for the time and effort!

It became more suspect when I saw the 474 V-eye listed as Nickel Silver as well, but I had to be certain.  Aside from the few stainless hooks I have, 100% of my hooks are finished in Black.  No Red, no Bronze, no Silver.
The only exception I'd be willing to make is Owner Wacky hooks that are Green.
