Gamakatsu, Hyabusa and Owner all make some very nice hooks at a healthy price. Mustad also makes an awesome hook at a more fair price.
I buy the bulk packs of mustads which come with 50 to 100 hooks at the price of 5 to 8 hooks of Owner, Gamakatsu or Hyabusa.
I have had some of the more expensive hooks break on me and have had some of the lesser ones rust in my tackle box because I forgot to throw it away after using it on a trip.
I prefer to throw the hook away instead of resharpening it for the price that they are.
The more expensive hooks can be successfully resharpened a few times before they are no longer useful.
