I have decided to use a hanked on jib rather than roller furling.

Now I need to decide what type of Hanks to put on the sail. It has been suggested that I use Wichard One Hand Sail Snap-Brass hanks.

Any thoughts? What type of hanks do all of you use?

Mine are the piston type, I just looked up the Wichard One Hand and I had a day sailer with this style of hanks-except the body was plastic. Never had a problem with them and they were easy to use, but the piston style aren't exactly hard to use either.
