Let me first introduce you to the several different types of Odyssey Crochet Hooks, before I get into the benefits of them. I have used Furls Crochet Hooks for a while now. And what I mean by that is that I have used almost every time of Furls Crochet Hook available. In fact, I even have written about them as well as their yarn bowls in this lengthy review.
The Black Furls Odyssey Crochet Hook
The black Furls Odyssey Crochet Hook is for sure the most well-known one. It was the first of its kind when it was first released in July 2015 and seen all over social media being used by so many crochet makers and designers. This hook has a nickel-plated pewter neck that is chrome-smooth.
The Purple Furls Odyssey Crochet Hook
The purple Odyssey hook was released with the pink one at the same time. It is the designed with the same nickel-plated pewter neck that is chrome-smooth as the black odyssey hook. Furthermore, as you can see in the picture below, the purple has some sparkles in it that will make you stand out in the crowd when using this amazing hook.
The Gold Furls Odyssey Crochet Hook
The gold Odyssey crochet hook was the first one I bought myself. As I love red so much, I felt compelled to buy this hook that is created with double plated 14K gold around the front of the crochet hook that will last a lifetime no matter which yarn type you are using. Even this gold crochet hooks red color on the back has some sparkles in it which are absolutely beautiful and are not distracting while crocheting.
The Rose Gold Furls Odyssey Crochet Hook
The rose gold Furls Odyssey crochet hook was just recently released to introduce the spring into the crochet world. This stunning crochet hook was created with a mixture of gold and copper to create this gorgeous rose gold color at the tip of the crochet hook. The white sparkly back of the crochet hook feel simple elegant and is like the cherry on top when it comes to the perfect match for the rose gold.
What makes the Furls Odyssey Crochet Hooks so amazing?
No matter which color, all the Odyssey hooks have certain things in common. Each of one of them was designed and created such that they all have the smoothes surface at the tip of the hooks to make each stitch easy and allow for great crocheting speed.
To provide improved mechanics Harrison, the Furls Crochet Hooks creator, made sure that the unique center of balance is towards the front or tip of the crochet hook which reduces hand strain and drives energy into crocheting momentum.
When crocheting with an Odyssey crochet hook, you will realize right away that it sits comfortably in your hand and relieves acute tension in knuckles, hands, and wrists. Furthermore, as they are no indents in the hooks, they are ideal for both left and right-hand crocheters alike.
Having such a smooth and rounded crochet hook tip makes it so much easier to insert your hook into your stitches, you will notice how much faster and efficient you can work using these crochet hooks. Unlike wooden hooks, Odyssey crochet hooks are designed for every crochet size available as they will not be any fear of breakage in sight.
In addition, instead of engraving the hooks with the crochet hook size, they all come with a very strong glued sticker on the back marking the crochet hook size. Having those stickers on the back allows you to display the crochet hooks nice and elegantly with having any writing to distract from its beauty.
Because the Odyssey crochet hooks have more weight purposefully put in the front of the hook they provide a huge amount of crocheting momentum. Also, they are sculpted such that the body of this hook sits perfectly in the MCP (metacarpophalangeal) joint of your hand and eliminates repetitive motion stress.
The Odyssey Crochet Hooks are incredible pieces of art that allow you to crochet longer and better than ever before. You will be surprised how fast you are getting your crochet projects finished when using them.

I have just one Furls Crochet Hook. It was a Christmas present. Everything you said about their hooks is the absolute truth. I felt the same way as soon as I started to use the hook.. When I look up patterns, I look up ones that use the same size hook as my furts hook. Thank you so much for this giveaway. What a prize this would be.
I have not used a Furls crochet hook yet. I have been searching for a true ergonomic hook to help with my arthritis in my hands. I have tried so many types, but none seem to be the right one yet. I cannot afford to buy many hooks, so winning one would be an answer to prayers! Thank you for this review! I am going to sav up to buy one at a time!
I really like the look of the black hook- would like to try one.
I’m really excited to try one of these hooks.
Omg! The rose gold hooks are so gorgeous! Definitely going on Momma’s wish list. ??
This hook appears to be helpful for hand related issues such as arthritis and lack of dexterity. Looking forward to trying out
I want one so bad. I have wanted one since they first came out with them. Maybe someday I will win one.
