I would probably also consider the price and reviews, if any.

I'm not sure I'd store a chain on that hook, let alone hook something to, or pull something by a chain attached to that hook.

Not a welder... What is it about that hook (other than the company) that's not good?
I got my hooks several years ago from Ken's Bolt On Hooks, and they are top quality. I highly recommend them.

Inconsistent bead size, substantial crater at the lower end of the weld, insufficient throat depth also at bottom. Will it break, maybe not, would I put my name on it...nope.

So it got galvanized after the weld?

It does look like he ran out of stick or stopped the weld right there for some reason, wouldn’t have used that side but it’s not like the average photographer would figure that out.
