Nice work!

Not to sound like too much a critic, but you might want to re-wrap one of the black sections around the hook and leave a long tog end to attach to a wine cork. That way you've got your hook protector attached to the gaff. Another option is to run a piece of plastic hose under the wrap around the hook and bring that out to cover the hook point.

Looks killer though. I've been wanting a longer gaff for a while and might have to go this route. Much cheaper than buying a gaff blank! Thanks for the idea.

Hope you get to test it out soon!
