I myself have a set of Honjo hammered fenders I installed on my Kogswell
P/R in 2006. They're perfectly fine. I have never used VO hammered,
but in principle there's no difference: as Patrick says, you have to
install the fenders without stress. You can't pull them into line with
the stays the way you'd do with plastic fenders. You'll read that in
every article out there on installing metal fenders.

Honjo hammereds will break within a year or 18 months if you stress
them by using the mounting points to shape them, as I did -- expensive
lesson -- torque at the brake bridge; the fender cracked at the
attachment point. I expect that the shop did the same thing.

Welp...I will say a shop owner told me that the vo hammereds break
within a year at the mounting points. He said the non-hammereds
are fine.
I have only used honjo hammereds so i cannot comment from personal
use.
