I don't really understand you saying our hooks. We here in the US make no hooks. I will tell you this I do have a handsome collection of vintage English hooks and they are of finer diameter then the hooks used today, dry fly that is. They are also sized differently.
Most old timers, forty years used Mustads, made in Sweden. The only hooks made here in the States as far as I know are Eagle Claw and they are heavier.
