Default Czech Nymph Hooks

Hello all i have been tying some Czech nymphs & used up the last of my Knapek size 8 hooks .I am looking for another 100 hooks but not Knapek as they have a lot of misshaped eyes .Anyone know any suppliers selling size 8 at a reasonable price. Cheers

For what it's worth, I think the best Czech Nymph hooks are by Hanak - H300BL, H360BL and their H400BL Jig Hook.

Also, hooks by Skalka - both their Barbless B and P - Both available from Jan Siman.

I've often found Knapek hooks to be a touch 'soft' in the wire.
