My sentiments exactly. I find metal needles too slippery for me, which is
why I use bamboo for just about everything, but I need pointier tips for
lace. I'm really liking the Addi lace needles. Those k -more-than-2-tog
parts are a lot easier to handle. I do wish they made them in larger
sizes; one lace item in my queue is done on size 8s, and I'm not willing
to take the chance and sharpen my bamboos for fear that I'll ruin them
(I'm not exactly the most coordinated person on the planet).

And I bought mine from Yarn Lady, the source given for online purchases.
If anyone ever gets to So Cal this is the place to go.

Nobody ever accused me of being very coordinated either. :-) The ones I
sharpened were relatively inexpensive size 7 SPs from a Jo-Ann store so I
wasn't concerned about ruining them. I wasn't able to get the points
perfectly even but they did the job for me with no problem.
