For what its worth.....
I contacted Mizuno about "hook faced" irons question:

My question:

I own MP32 irons.
Is it true that irons are designed "hook faced" in that when properly soled, the shaft leans forward toward the target? If so, can you describe the reasoning why (I'm assuming it has to do with the golf club operating on an inclined plane) and what the hook angle specs are. Thanks

The response:

Thank you for contacting Mizuno USA. The MP 32 irons are designed as a neutral blade model and do not favor a hook or fade setup. This club will be one of the most workable options that we have available. Thanks again for your time and interest.

Best Regards,

Mizuno USA

I don't know if this response was from a clerk at customer support or a design engineer so use at your own risk. But its interesting nonetheless.
