I'm the same way, I like em shiny! Especially in the summer time... gives it a little more flash.

I could design a tungsten condom if anyone needed real protection. Just a small balloon would work for that.

Might as well keep the hooks shiny too so that they will match the tungsten.

Once the tungsten is stored properly, its time to learn the FG Knot.

Give the guy a break lol, tungsten aint cheap and he wants to take care of them, mine are all pretty beat up also. Trokar used to make a box with some kind of foam padding with slits in it to keep all the hooks separate, I still use it and they are not all bunched up and tangles up, If you can find the older black trocar box they might fit in the slots.
