Amazing pick!
I don't usually do reviews for something so small and "unimportant" as a plectrum. I have always had problems with dropping my pick. I've tried to fix that by buying coarse picks to give better grip. I've even used picks that had actual sandpaper on the grip portion. Nothing works. So that's just the way it is. Recently picked up playing Blues lead guitar, both electric and acoustic. My instructor suggested I switch to a thick non flexible plectrum for better control. I've tried a few 1.0+ mm picks with some decent success but I always seem to misplace them. I don't know why. When I saw these, I thought, more expensive, but I'm still learning this whole thick plectrum thing, why not give it a try. I'm very glad I did. First off, I don't drop these picks ever. Not ever. Grip is amazing. But that's not the best part. It's the way the pick makes contact and release of the string. Smooth like glass, but very controllable. The attack is amazing! But I stress, VERY controllable!! There is no popping of strings ever. the pick makes contact with the string, plucks it and releases instantly. Literally like smooth glass! I highly recommend that everyone try these. They last forever, unlike celluloid or nylon or Delrin or whatever other synthetic pick material you can come up with. But it won't wear out your strings like steel or brass picks will. Just give it a chance. Buy one and give it a shot. They come in every normal pick size and shape you are used to from 351 to super thick tiny Jazz plectrums. Even big triangle heavy rock picks. Just buy one in your favorite size and shape, and try it out. Not so great for strumming acoustic guitars, at least for me, but killer for electric!!

Great tone
Bought this for trying something different from regular tortex picks. It makes the tone bassier which I quite enjoy. The pick wear our quick unfortunately, but would definitely buy again.

Good sounding pick, you can definitely hear the difference between this and normal cheap ones.

It could use a couple of holes for better grip, but that's not a killer. perfect weight and tone, perfect feel, my favourite for archtops and acoustics.

Dear but worth it
5 bucks for a pick - madness.
But I would buy another if I lost it. Grip is really good and there is something great about the way it grabs and releases the string. Just perfect for me. Top marks. Best pick I've ever used and I must have tried dozens over the decades.

Good sound. Odd shape.
I like the sound you get using horn, as it gets close to the sound I imagine I'd get if my fingernails were thicker and stronger than they are. The note attack is not as immediate as is the case with metal or stone picks, but not as soft as some of the wooden picks I tried. One gripe is the length of the pick; I would have preferred a slightly shorter, more rounded pick.

Seems Okay!
I only bought one on these so I'm not sure if it's the particular one that I got or if it's how they're made, but the tip was very square and was quite hard to move across the strings. Having said that, The material that it's made of sounds great and is VERY light.
Would recommend for flat pickers

Not for me
tone is okay, but I'm used to picks with a speed bevel. I can't go back to this kind of picks
