The Raptor-X is a triple 3X hook, new from BKK for 2021, whose design is inspired by one of the best BKK hooks ever launched: the Raptor-Z.
The proportions of the anchor gap are maintained to endow the Raptor-X with excellent holding power, however, the hook tip is slightly straightened to improve penetration speed, which is further accentuated by the thinner wire profile and Hand-Ground technology machining.
Featuring a lighter wire and also being available in very small sizes, the Raptor-X can be suitable for rigging smaller baits without altering their swimming action.
The lightness of the structure of this new version is also increased by the Hand-Ground processing, through which the barb is manually sharpened by removing material around the tip.
The Bright-Tin coating of the Raptor-X aims to maximize its performance in terms of resistance to saltwater corrosion, thus being suitable even for harsh saltwater environments.
