Just one suggestion, Vince.

Standardize the hook size. One make's 3/0 is the same size as another's 4/0.

I think there may also be preferences for lighter wire or heavier wire octopus in the same hook size depending on the application.

Interested to see what you find, although I have an idea in my own mind which hook(s) might straighten/break easier.

Beyond sheer hook strength, another property to test is the resistance to curling of the hook point itself. I don't give a damn if I can straighten the hook by pulling too hard on a fish, but I can't even hook the bastage if the point is curled!
