They sound pretty good, but I have a hard time finding new ones. The last one I won in a poker game, have lost it, and am now back to those dumb tortex things.

this depends on more your guitar (bridge, saddles) and technique (how do you hit the string with the pick?) than the pick itself.

here you go. steel picks.

I like the brighter sound and sharper attack of a steel pick, and I enjoy the satisfying tactile shk of the pick against the roundwound strings. You can't get that with nylon.
