Some of the Falle Safe products are also available from mbausa.com. for those located in the USA.
The set of lockpicks is $250 and the set of 4 tension tools can be bought for $70.

so whats so special about the falle-safe picks anyways? ive heard a lot about them, but i dont see how they differ so much from regular picks. why are they so expensive too? and how come noone else makes picks like thiers? 
It's ok guys, i have a really bad attention sp-wow look, a beach!

yeah, ive been wondering the same. what makes them so special? i mean, i have seen pics of them on matt blazes site, teh crypto one, but i mean, come on! i think raimundos bogotas are far more deserving of a reputation like that.

Ive jot a set of Falle picks... there just great ! and i use them on the job everyday.
There has been a lot of cleverness and thought put into the design of these picks and tension tools, but it is the adjustable tension tools that are the money shot with this set.
The set also contains lever picks which will open most simple 2 and 3 lever mortice locks. There are also some incredibly deep hooks and some nice rakes in the set.
But at the end of the day whatever picks you use is always a matter of personal preference

Great to here there working for you bud
I always liked those adjustables, if you could buy them seperate i would pay the price.
Quick question, the L-rake, or sawtooth variations, I like there design altough nothing new, i like how they diffrent high and low points, the question is what is there length, compared to a standad L-rake, the rake looks a bit shorter and more concentrated that an L-rake.

Indeed, the Falle picks are unrivaled. Good quality design. However, the biggest draw for me is the multitude of hook shapes and angles. I've described it before as "a hook for any occasion". Well well worth the money I spent, and safeventures was fantastic to deal with.
Cheers,
