cheap lock pick set-HELP(im kinda new)

Postby pickonatic » 19 Apr 2004 16:23

I've been lock picking for about 2 weeks now and i am really enjoying it. Ive been getting pretty far with my paperclips and homemade tension wrenches. But now i have decided to get a lock pick set. So if any one knows where i can get a CHEAP 5 peice set for under $20 that would be great..


Any help appreciated,

I agree with Kung ....


http://www.lockpicks.com is a good place to get a lock pick set. I have ordered a few things from them and the things that I recived where good tools. Also the Processing Time was fast on my order. I had my tools in just a few days. Good people is all I can say :)

I bought my picks individually off southern ordinance. All you need for basic picking is a short hook for single pin picking, and a half diamond for raking, and a tension wrench. Each Item is between 1 and 2 dollars. Then tack on 5 dollars for shipping and you have a lock pick set.

You may also want to read around on the site and get another snake rake or possibly or double ball pick based on what kind of locks you want to pick, but that would only add another 3 dollars.
