Falconry Hoods International

Welcome to my website

I have decided to only offer hoods when I have them available. For fall 2024 and the year 2025, I will be offering the following hood styles.

Anglo Indian and Indian Dutch hoods will be made available for tiercel peregrine to large female red tails My Rt Hawk hood is strictly for Red-tails and my slip on style hoods are for Harris Hawks, Goshawks, Red-tail hawks, and smaller hawk-eagle species, and hybrids.

When I have them available I will post them here for sale.

Sorry, but at this time I am no longer accepting orders or commissions.

I glued all of my hoods for the first five years when I started making hoods, it's surprising just how good a glued hood can be, providing you have the correct glue. Ken Hooke seems to have the knack his glued hoods look great

The hood you sent is a fine creation of your talent and the Khan hood is a perfect fit for this female Saker. As well the 10W Khan I received earlier is a good fit on the other Saker. Great job.

Scott Webster

Master Hoodmaker.

You have to be one of the most innovative hood makers in the world. What I love about your work is that you break all the rules of traditional style hoods. You make your own way through the hood makers world with style and a uniqueness that is all your own. I always look forward to see what you will come up with next. I think the ultimate compliment a hoodmaker can receive is praise from another hoodmaker. Good job Ken.

The fact that you went down a different road compared to many other hood makers that are making copies of copies puts you in a league of your own. I would have to say your work is something to be admired, at least you have my respect. Keep up the good work.

Your hoods are Beautiful, I've never seen such embossing. You are a true Craftsman, an Artist, keep up the good work.

Craig Culver

Your hoods are beyond incredible! I'm convinced that you're the best and most ingenious hood maker today and my collection - I'm proud to say - reflects the same. Now when I show other falconers my collection it shows not only standard hoods but the creative and well made hoods. The best part is that it's your hoods that are the standard, creative and most well made of all of them. Thank you for allowing me the ability to share, show and brag about your talent.

Tried the Moridian hood on my friends Gyr-Peregrine. Fit excellent. My friend loved it!

Alan Gates

Eagle Falconer

With every hood I am always impressed with Ken's attention to detail and fine craftsmanship. His interest in some of the diverse hood patterns from around the world is reflected in the exotic hood designs he creates. Coupled with a superb customer service he strives to make the best fitting hood for your hawk. His hoods are some of the finest made today.

I wanted to let you know that the male Red-tailed hood you sent me, size 11, fits perfect and looks great on my new hawk. Everyone who sees the hood is very impressed with it. I am proud to use it. THANKS!

Your hood fits her well as you can see. Size is right around the back and the beak opening is excellent. This next season I will try it for extended use.

As breeders we're dealing with about a dozen different species of raptors and are using many types of hoods crafted by Ken. Every time we receive a new hood from Mr. Hooke we find ourselves to be amazed by both: Quality and Beauty!

Gene Johnson

Master Hoodmaker

Ken, your hoods are truly unique and innovative. I can't wait to see what you do next.

Tony James

Historian and Hood Collector

There are some wonderful hood makers now coming through, but how satisfied must you be, to see that some of the best have obviously been inspired by you. Frankly, what greater compliment than to see talented artists having been influenced by your own work? I often look at hoods and think 'Yep", they’ve grown up looking at Ken’s hoods’!
