Does anyone know of/own this pick?

When it comes down to it there is nothing better than manual tools for your Lock pick Set, whether they be retail, homebrew, macgyver style. DIY'ers look here.

This image is from the background of www.lockpicktools.net .

Look at the pick on the very bottom. It appears to be a sort of a rake with a sort of ball at the top and a half-diamond at the bottom. It isn't carried on their site (though, neither is the top pick). Has anyone seen or heard of this pick? I'm just wondering, as I have never seen it before.

Looks like someone took a sabana rake and added some really low lying waves to the middle part. It could be used to effectively rake locks where the center pins are low setting while the front and back set high. Of course this is all just an analysis of a crazy looking pick and may be wrong, but I think it is feasable.

I'm going to go with skold on this one. I think when the site was making the backround they just made some weird design up and called it a rake.
Lock picking is an art, not a means of entry.

yea, seems just an artist rendition, since if you look closely there is a 55 deg label on the arc over the double ball in the middle, and its definitely over 90...

Just taking a guess here but it kind of looks like a wierd key extractor.

I assure you, if that were a key exractor, they key hole would have to be over twice the size of a kwikset or similar brand.

Key extractor, you're been silly, maybe in the world of Jack and the bean stork.

Just wondering, what is a sabana rake? All I can find on the forum is that raimundo makes them, and Varjeal liked his. Google yields nothing as well.
