yeah I haven't really thought about their "lifespan", hopefully the handles don't wear off that fast, I've never heard of hamanaka hooks, will look it up!  Post time 2023-6-9 01:37

I have a set similar to these with the silicone handle and I love them. Much more comfortable.

I had to google it to find out, but I use a pencil grip or "underhand" grip (the other one is knife grip or "overhand" grip). I've never had a problem with the crochet hook slipping, but no idea why.
