I retrieved the packages from the trash and those are the Numbers of the hooks I bought, I had missed the Chemically sharpened label.
I bought a couple of packages of the barbed hooks at the same time. (the barb less were a pleasant mistake) the barbed are just as sharp and looking at them that barb is hard to see when its held in the hand. I will have to be extra careful to debarb them for catch and release only waters. Very nice hooks.
