I did but have not had much time to mess with them. I will need to polish them up thought they were kinda rough on the edges. Maybe by the end of the week I will have time to play with my new toys.
ETA I am not very impressed with the 32 piece set I got from learnlockpicking and might order some individual picks from somewhere else |

Single pin is hard though even on cheaper locks. I had to start with 3 pins on my challenge lock and work my way up. Currently I am at all 5 pins, with a couple spools. Even then I can only get it part of the time. ETA: For SPP I found experimenting with different tension wrenches can really help. Feedback is key. |

I pick locks while I'm on conference calls. Most things can be handled with a good Bogota, a half Diamond or a Hook. The key (snicker) is having good tension wrenches that fit well. I like these if you can only have one:

With one of these and some pins you an easily repin to however many pins you want also i think learning the feel with out seeing will be more valuable as you will never be able to see into a real lock

Any Tennessee pickers have insight on this? Possibly illegal by statute; new laws targeting rogue or scammer locksmiths are broadly-written and criminalize possession of lockpicks by unlicensed persons. However, a common sense reading of the new statutes shows that they are targeting those who improperly seek to earn money by defrauding the public. Use and demonstration of lockpicks might be considered legal if not done for profit. TOOOL is writing to the Tennessee AG's office for clarification. |

Even with the cheapest locks, the average crook is still going to be cutting/smashing/breaking their way into a building. The lock on the door is usually the securest part of a residential home full of glass and weak doors. |

The weight might cut down on the feedback some you could use titanium or aluminum. I should add I used the end of one of the picks as a reamer after I drilled the hole by putting the pick in the vise and chucking the brass rod in the drill this made it fit very tight without wobble |

amateur. I worked as a security guard in college and spent a LOOOT of time picking locks to stay awake. I used to be good at it but now I suck. It's an amazingly useful hobby sometimes. We were working a KMart once and a water pipe cut loose inside, we called the cops and by the time they got there we were in and had it shut off.
Kmart gave us a 500$ bonus each cause we saved a LOT of damage from happening. It took the FD/Cops about 15 minutes to get there. |

Got my sparrows picks and they are very nice. I got the upgraded handles it would not take much to make the picks VERY polished.
The surprise of the lot was the octopus rake it is way bigger than the rest and actually seems to work great but needs a handle of some sort |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The serepicks are well made but I am much faster with my own favorites Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: http://shop.thetacticalmedic.com/Lock-Pick-Card-picks.htm Credit card sized for easy carry in your wallet. Six picks and four tension tools. I have this bookmarked for future purchases. SERE pick was mentioned on a defcon like talk I watched. The serepicks are well made but I am much faster with my own favorites I bought it for the form factor. I am sure using full size, handled picks, with my favorite tension wrench would get me into a lock much quicker. At Thanksgiving dinner, my very young niece mentioned she was a spy and opened locks with a bobby pin. She was floored when I showed her the card. Even asked to trace it in her spy journal! That alone was worth the cost. |
