Introducing the Achilleus/Achilles (previously known as the Scallon), the renowned hero of the Greeks during the Trojan War.  He was a fearsome warrior who chose a short, glorious life over a long and undistinguished one.  According to legend, he was ambushed and killed by an arrow to the heel shot by Paris (under the guidance of Apollo, who supported Troy against the Greeks), as this was the only part of him not invulnerable.  This versatile plectrum is one or our favorite models, as it strikes a perfect balance between size and thickness.  The material is UHMW-PE with superior wear quality, tactile feel, little deflection noise and a warm sounding tone.  When ordering please specify your preferences in the order notes section.  Achilles is available in Black, White, Purple, Blue and Green and the available thicknesses range from 6mm to 14mm.  The default (if details are not specified by the buyer) will be 9mm thick and the artisan’s choice of color.
