I have a 62 year old Bilateral trans radial Amputee . He has being
using special made split hooks for the 25-30 years . These hooks are
starting are wearing out (he had 10 pair made originally) and we are
looking for similar style . He has tried Hosmer , USMC and Steeper .
What we are looking for is stainless steel split hooks with serrated
grip , heavy duty . Steeper came closest to his type , but the canted
tip was to short . He is use to a longer tip ~ 1/2 longer .
Any information on pre made hooks that fit or someone who can
manufacture said hooks would be gratefully appreciated
Thank you
