How Exacty Was A Hook A Good Replacement For A Hand In The Pirate Days?
12 Answers
I'm watching Peter pan (hook) and wondered what use was a hook? I would've thought if you lost your hand then the next best thing would be 5 hooks to replicate the lost hand? Why a singular hook? What use was that?

A hook was very basic and probably only used if there were no resources to make anything better, on a pirate ship for example.
It is as well to remember that until the introduction of antiseptic surgery around 1850 , over 80% of people who had to have an amputation died from infection or loss of blood.
