Pick Handles

[hozer2k]

Hopefully you guys will like this as much as I do.

The X-acto handles for x-acto blades work awesome. Obviously it is use to putting blades in so it works great for pics too. You will need to shorten your existing pic and remove some material from the top and bottom. Be sure to make it just smaller than the ID of the barrel so there is no wiggle room. After installing it, it has no play, real solid and has a great feel. As a test I picked up one of my more difficult locks and opened it twice within 30 seconds. Perhaps it was just lucks, but that thing really felt far better than the regular pic. Maybe there can be some further improvements...but the existing is pretty great.

Doh! I figured someone must have said that before...it works too good not to. Didnt see it though, oh well...at least I thought I was discovering something new,

Anyone else know of any good handles for pics?

hockey tape (fabric type), nothing beats it in my books. soft, absorbant, with good texture for grip.

hmmmm, sorry if that sounds like a toilet paper ad

heat shrink

Heat shrink is good because it comes in various colors (colours) so you can easily ID your tools.

Well i like plastic handles from peterson.
Good grip, good tacticle feed back and good size.

I prefer the Peterson plastic handles to their rubber handles. Not just for the feel, but because the darned rubber ones are too hard to remove from the case.

[Luke]

I get ur point - the peterson cases are well made, and i can imagine what a pain it would be to remove those rubber handles from the SNUG little pockets.

I found after a while, you can easily insert and remove picks after the leather stretches a bit. Definately the softest most luxurious case for picks I've ever seen/owned.
