Open eye hooks such as Mustads are plated after they are cut, The 9650 ps is a x-strong hook , It however is not 4x strong ,Stick with the 9626 4 X which will be your best bang for your buck....

What Habs said is ABSOLUTELY true!!
The 2 ends where you cut the hook eye expose unplated raw carbon steel to air and saltwater. (a bad combination)
They will fail.
