Name this rake

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.

Name this rake

Anybody have a clue what this rake is called? I have searched but unable to find anything. Image

It must be an S rake. I can only come to that conclusion because of its S shape

It bares a striking resemblance to the broken key extractor included in my
Southord set.... but since you asked me to name it, I say we call her Peggy.

I thought so too, but the bottom part is more flat than an S rake. From now on it will be called Peggy. :lol:

Always heard them called a batarang. They seem to be prone to breaking in the lock.

Why yes the other end does look like that. I see somebody else has the same Southard set. :D I use it for one purpose, to rake Brinks R70's.

I would call it a "W" rake ("M" in Australia)

I found the half-diamond end of Peggy great for raking. A couple of fast sweeps from bottom to front of lock opens many low security locks.
The half-diamond picks I´ve made have a similiar or a little curved slope like in Peggy.

I'd say more slender than curvy.

Best of both worlds: slender, but has all the right curves in all the right places
