Thanks the last one is Morrisonite from Tony(Catmandewe). That pick was a special order for a fellow from England.
As for thickness, 1mm to 3mm.
I got a FRB of Original Owyhee and Amy sage from Tony that I will be slabbing in the spring after my work slows down. Can't wait to try the Amy, new material for me.

There guitar picks, 1-2 mm thick. The Belvade/Belvedere Jasper and the Amy Sage are new to me.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
