I can use them. I just don't have many places to use them. We only have a few Japanese and chinese resturants in my area and my friend, Helen, makes sushi a lot. I have a couple of sets of them. I agree with you on the slick plastic ones,TalnSG. You just can't get a good grip. I've seen the aluminum chopsticks on JBox. They look great but I'm not sure they'd be much be much better than the plastic ones if they don't have textured grips.
