I would have opted for this one, has more picks jsut a few dollars more they look to have all metal handels, plus there color coated.


I actually decided against this just because I didn't like the colorcoding. =)

I have some money but I wouldn't spend three times what I am now. I'm a friggin collage student. =)

And btw the picks have arrived today, I have a shortage of locks so I've only picked a pair of yale mini locks [three pins] so far. I'm trying to break a bicycle lock I found but It's being evil and either false setting or its a security pin. I'll get it in time.

As for the actual picks it seems that quite a few of them are southord. The case itself is a pleasent size I was expecting a bigger one. It's HPC so I'm thinking that a few of the unmarked picks are as well. There are a few doubles a snake for example but it doesn't bother me much. The picks feel good, I don't have much experience of course. =) There is a good selection of tension tools including one double that I was glad to see. I thought I'd have trouble with the big locks but it's got that covered. =)

All in all the first impression is good. Maybe I'll do a real review when I've had it longer...
