What do I do for smaller locks? I'm talking about the small ones that have smaller keys and keyholes and everything such as the ones on the back of master combination locks that can be opened with a master lock.
Just by looking at these I can see that my tension wrench wouldn't fit in there. Are tension wrenches made which fit these smaller locks? And I'm not sure if the picks would also be too large so are their smaller versions of those too?
thanks!

I'm not, but this isn't the only place you come accross these locks. It surprises me that they don't make smaller tools for smaller locks. How the hell would a locksmith open it unless he made the tools?! Doesn't make sense to me.

Lots of "standard" tools work well if you know just how to apply them. Besides, most of these smallish locks are "cut and throw away" items. Althogy, Rytan does make some smaller tools.

On some small padlocks with a tiny keyway like a luggage padlocks you can take a small half diamond using light pressure you can use it for pick and tension at the same time

I love it, true lock pickers logic:
hammer --> smash nail --> pick lock
as oposed to the 'average' persons' logic:
hammer --> smash lock
smashing metal is always a good way to improvise a quick and dirty pick

Hello all.
I hate those luggage locks. I pick mine, my sisters', and everyone else's i know with two paper clips. The common ones (that I've seen, at least) are way tooo cheap.
This doesn't apply to Master Locks ;p
Master Locks can be pick with normal gigantic american size picks and wrenches.
