The hook is impressivly sanded, you can see the curvature on the pick shaft. The hook with its little birds head with the rivet eye and pickshaft beak, Ratyoke does it again.
Wake up and smell the Kafka!!!

I received my two picks from ratyoke and the pictures do not do them justice. These are works of art. They will be getting their own customer leather case.
Thanks ratyoke!

Yep, I'm back in Korea now for at least another year, so I'm not taking any orders.
I have a couple wood handled picks I finished before I left that I plan to sell soon. Maybe next week after I get the internet in my apartment hooked up.
