Peterson Order/Review

Postby bumpit » 23 Apr 2007 0:37

I have finally made a long awaited order to Peterson to celebrate getting my first real job. To some people this order might seem ridiculous. To me going 6 months with an MPXS-14 set(2 rakes are broken due to excessive use and noob mistakes) has given me a big reason to make a large order. I have also ordered a few other things I have wanted to try. I have been encouraged by Schuyler to write a review and I thought it might help some people who are in the dark when it comes to buying Peterson products. I have ordered these items Sunday, April 22, 2007 at 10:01 PM:

Oriental Jiggler Pick: $38.00
PETERSON BUMP HAMMERS -- GRAY (BH-GY) $18.00
Adams Rite Slim Jim: $16.00
5 PC WARDED Rivet lock Picks: $22.00
KPS-15, Ken's Mid Range Pick Set: $85.00
(Flat 5 tension tools, Slender Gem,Saw Tip Extractor, 5 textured picks and deep cut access picks.
Peterson Pry Bar: $8.00
Three Serrated Tension Tools: $24.00
The Double Prong Pair: $11.00
0.6MM Diamond Pick- 2x Plastic
0.6MM Peterson Gem-2x Plastic
0.6MM Peterson Reach-2x Plastic
0.6MM Hook-2x Plastic
0.6MM Triple Rake-2x Plastic-1x Rubber
0.6MM Long Ripple-2x Plastic-1x Rubber
0.6MM Double Rake-2x Plastic-1x Rubber
0.6MM Half-Snowman-1x Plastic
Lifter Pick-$14.00
All individual picks $4.00 each
Final cost is around $333.00 USD which will cost me $392.00.(Canadian)


In this post I will discuss postage time, quality of products, and customer fulfillment when the order is complete. I will also give Peterson a rating out of 10 and post pictures for everyone to see. Thank you.

Bumpit,

Wow thats a big order. :shock: But I think you'll be pleased with Peterson. When I got mines I could immediately feel the difference and the feed back from inside the lock was amazing.

Looking forward to the photos.

Also curious as to what will happen when you get them. I'm wondering if you've gotten yourself to the level where better equipment will improve your picking performance. I know when I got my LN21's I was able to revisit locks that stymied me with my old tools and pop them without much trouble. That said? I've now gone back to those same locks and opened them with my junky mini picks. I like to think this is a positive commentary on the course of my picking ability. Good luck with them.

Well he said Ken's set so I don't think he got Allison's pick set.

That is apparently the same reason why that female locksmith requested a pink pick tool set according to the product discription on Petersons website.

Yes it gets the largest in the winter. 20 foot swells sometimes. A few people do tow in here on the big days.


Still waiting for picks, thanks for the input guys. :D

i had a friend who was moving and she got cardboard boxes from a store around here. She got a few boxes from cases of tampons and put her more valuble stuff on those.
