***New Flat Hook Style!***
*SOLD INDIVIDUALLY. Build your own set to get exactly the number you need!*
We made a very limited run of these awesome STAINLESS STEEL damascus steel stocking hooks for that extra *bling* factor. The flat style hooks create a very stable hold and have some added flair with a few extra twists and a sweet little curl. To showcase the incredible damascus pattern, we left the face clean and bright, with no stamps. These are a heirloom quality pieces, and will last generations!
The hooks sit just fine with a full stocking*, but if you're worried they'll leap off your mantle like reindeer off a roof, you can simply add something like a Command Strip for added security (and no holes in your mantle!)
Please note that each hook is individually hand made, so there will be slight differences with each one.
*bets are off if you get a ton of coal...
HOOK CARE:
Damascus Steel looks sweet, but may rust and stain if not taken care of properly. Please clean the hooks with a grease cutting soap before use, as they will arrive with a protective coating of oil. When you finally take down the holiday decor sometime in March, add a light coating of furniture oil or wax on them and put them in a ziplock bag. That will help keep them from rusting while in storage. IF they rust, try rust removing cream or WD-40, or even just a light polish with 0000 steel wool.

1085 high carbon and damascus steel will hold an edge very well, but they are not stainless steel. It may take on color with lots of use, and should be dried and oiled, if possible, to prevent rust. If you do get some rust, I prefer giving it a quick rub with a very fine (0000) steel wool and it usually easily takes care of it without scratching the metal.
You can use WD40 or rust remover, just be sure to clean the blade thoroughly before use, especially if using it for food.
The key is keeping it dry. Any moisture that sits on the metal will cause rust. That being said, I've had some in my drawer for years with no issues!
I wouldn't go chipping away at rocks, but they're pretty tough and should last you a long time!
Everything you see in the listings is in stock, but we may not have the quantity you need. Send me a note with any questions.
For large custom orders:
These are usually orders of 10+, and you can go full custom. We can do almost any amount given enough time.
You can engrave names or logos on the handles. You can replace my AIM logo with your own etched into the blade, or we can make a custom metal stamp of your logo for the leather sheaths.
Just remember, these are custom made and hand crafted, so we need months, not weeks. The more customized, the more time we need! They look ridiculously awesome, so bring it on!
Yes.
Oh, you want to know more? Just send me a note to discuss your ideas!
Notes:
-ENGRAVING goes on the wood handles. It's a laser engraver, so burning the image in. It can do fairly detailed images, even your drawn pictures and handwriting. Be creative! Engraving has a quick turn around.
-ETCHING goes on the metal. It looks great on the polished metal, but can be hard to see on the damascus. This needs to be less detailed. Think words, numbers, basic designs. WE ONLY DO THIS FOR LARGE ORDERS (10+). This takes time.
We will do full custom jobs for larger orders, including blade designs, handle materials, custom deep etched logos (instead of the AIM), custom leather stamps on the sheath, etc. Your gifts can be awesome!
I'm open to the discussion. Send me a note!

I really like how these look hanging from our mantle. I like that they are flat on top so I can put decorations over/around them (like garland); I did not want stocking holders that had anything sticking out on the top. We did place heavier decorations on top of them to make sure they held up the filled stockings overnight, but will use command strips as recommended in the future if we don't want to do that.

These are perfect for our mantle. We love them and look forward to using them every year.
