    Titanium soldering picks are excellent and readily available. I do
    NOT want to do Karen out of any business, but for those who may be on
    a tighter budget, titanium solder picks can be had a little more
    cheaply. Mine cost me about 7 UKP and is comprised of a titanium pick
    screwed into a plastic handle (which obviously doesn't conduct heat).
    I think it's made by Pepe (if I remember rightly). It looks less
    substantial than Karen's titanium pick but still does the business
    without solder sticking to it.
