I would like to put my credibility on the line by stongly endorsing the Majestic set. These things are incredible. I have this Master 150 that's keyed all funny and has spools. In a month I have picked it a total of four times while weeping tears of humiliation. I started to experiment with the majestic and when I found the right one HOLY CRAP! :shock: The thing FLIES open now, with no problems. I'll admit it's cheesy but that's only because it's so fast. I'm now ready to go after the higher security models.

I've been saying that for awhile, SFGOON, the Majestic is dollar for dollar the better set, its more effective and its easier to use. Not to mention you get more tools for the the money. Glad to hear people are agreeing with me.

I had the HPC Set years ago, I'm sorry I sold it now. It was fairly interesting and when you could get the rather large pick profile into a keyway, they did work very well. It really was effective but had that drawback that the keyway had to be a bit large to get them in effectively or else the mere entry of the pick started doing things that you might not want them doing.

I guess I'll have to pick up another set eventually, as well as the Majestics to experiment with.
