does he cut his own blanks or buy them and grind them, nice looking lures, the pearly with orange dots has sold me

I think some of both, depending on material.

Nice looking hardware.

Does the single hook work any better for landing fish? And without jepardizing the hookset?

Yup, single hooks work well. Less damage to the fish too. Needlefish are set up the same way and I rarely miss a hookset with one of those lures.
If he's shaping, taping and rigging hooks on all those himself... he's not making much money. That's time consuming stuff...

I was wondering where my lure's went??? he he he...
