Excellent multitool
I used to use Dunlop Jazz 3 picks and was pretty happy with them. The only problem I found was that they would tend to rotate around when I was playing and I would have to keep adjusting my grip. I found some of the DAVA picks in a local guitar store and decided to try them out as they have some grippy material to hold and they were pretty good, so I changed to them.
These rock control variants do not have that grippy rubberised material but instead are plastic with ribs. These ribs allow you to keep control of the pick when playing and helps you subconsciously keep the pick oriented to how you would play.
The ribs provide a couple of roles. First, orientation as said above. Second, control of flexibility. The closer you hold the pick to the tip, the more stiff it becomes. Great for single note passages and good control and articulation. They become a "thick" pick when you hold them this way. When you move your grip further back towards the logo, they become floppy and you can thrash out some rhythm parts with vigour, without worrying about snapping strings or catching a string on your pick.
These are essentially a 1.5mm pick with a .75 pick built in depending on how you hold it.
Now I have got used to these, it's pretty hard to go back to using "normal" ones.
The Delrin is quite soft though, so with a lot of palm muted metal rhythms the tip of it has worn away quite quickly. Your call if you like that or not.
I like 'em and I'll keep using them!

confused
I don't seem to get them
can't get any of that "Control"
also not really suited for speedpicking I think
because the tip is very wide

May feel a bit weird at first, but once you get used to them, you may start loving them
I first got into Dava picks by buying a metal tipped one in order to get some extra pick attack and a bit more solid feel.
These ones have basically a plastic tip and I mainly use them for playing my acoustics and the electrics that don't belong to me, as I am a bit afraid of scratching them up with the metal pick.
My friends often tell me when trying those at first that these picks feel quite weird. I however really love them, mainly because you can change the rigidity of the pick by the way you hold it.

My favorites
I've been using these for a few years now, I can't get used to any other type of pick. Something about the two different layers of thickness gives these plectrums a feel that no others have. I love em. They last very well too.... I think I managed to keep the same one for about 6 months before I lost it!

Good
I am always looking for the perfect pick and I think I have over 300 different brands. These picks will take a little time getting used to but they have a great grip and seem to be durable too.

My favourite picks
I really like those as based on the grip you can use them for both soloing and chords playing. Very comfortable.

my favorite ones!
I bought this a while ago, only to try it out, and these things absolutely rock. If you want a hard pick for heavy picking but also a thin pick for fast playing, these are the best picks you'll ever find, I guarantee it.
