I have one, attack drop made from red UHMWPE, best sounding and easiest pick to use once you're used to the size. The thick round part means there is almost no scratching against the strings as you pick and very little resistance but the sharp point maintains the attack.

There was a tiny bit of wear from the direction of picking initially but that seems to have stopped.

First person I've come across who uses the same pick  :D

I didn't know about them until the pick shootout thread, and had just used regular Jazz IIIs.  The switch from your regular Jazz III to these 'stiffo' ones was something of a 'no-brainer' once I'd tried them.  Everything I like about the Jazz III (thickness, point shape) with none of the downsides from the material, and I was already used to the size.
