Ray, that sheffield stainless is tha shiznit! I made one of those hooks you gave me super slim and narrow for tight keyways, and it STILL doesn't bend under pressure. I couldn't ask for anything better, keep up the good work those picks look nice.

Well,thank you,Chip,
yeah,i agree its' the shizzle,and i find it quite reassuring that it was made to last a lifetime,as cutlery,(and in most cases already has)
so they should easily last another lifetime,if used properly,& well looked after.

Re: Some Fresh Home Made Picks

Damn!I have never seen better made picks!If you didn't tell anybody that you made them and they didn't have the cutlery insignia,they could pass of for LAB picks!

Re: Some Fresh Home Made Picks

Great job. It can be difficult to make detailed picks and still keep a uniform width. You have done so beautifully.

I'm looking forward to seeing more.
