I review tools on my youtube channel full time (by the same name), and I know Jimy personally, we/he figured out that 90% of his customer base were new pickers, and he couldnt make a beginner pick set, while 20 lock picks in sets of 4. SAINTCON requested he make some sets for their convention back in november, and he realized he needed a beginner lockpick set, with turning tools and a case, not just hook picks and nothing else. so he is recalibrating and restructuring his business to keep up with current demand, which is 90% new pickers. We both speculate he will then bring back old profiles in "seasons" and include new unseen profiles as limited runs, but the basics, and intermediate, and advanced pick sets will be considered mainstays while the other profiles will be limited runs. Hope that helps.
