Broken Pick ..

[mseifert]

Today I broke the first pick I ever made .. It has been my primary pick since I started picking (It did have shrink wrap on the handle) .. So I when about making 2 more out of a hardsaw blade...

Dispite the way it looks in the picture it is a short and medium hook.

Eulogy in the pick graveyard at 9. It's always sad to see a loved pick go.

It was a good pick. It lived a long life, and could always be counted on to do the job. And do it well. While we will miss it, we must keep in mind that...

Oops! Not 9 yet.

Anyway, looking forward to seein what you make as a replacement.

Replacements are in the picture .. They have red handles.

Despite the way it looks in the picture it is a short and medium hook.

I really like that handle design! Is that standard para-cord? If not, could I trouble you to ask what size the cord is, etc?

Did it bug you, much, losing your first pick? I get attached to some of my picks and would be devastated if one of my favorites broke!
(Of course, I don't tell the other picks "I have favorites!")

I have to admit I was a little sad when the pick broken .. But in the picks defense I was trying to bend the tip back into position with a pair of plyers..

Yes the Paracord is a standard paracord.. actually I kind of like it .. Is provides a little cushion ... makes the handle larger (I have big hands) .. I just need to get used to the new pick now.
