bogota HALL OF FAME!!!!!

When it comes down to it there is nothing better than manual tools for your Lock pick Set, whether they be retail, homebrew, macgyver style. DIY'ers look here.

Yeah, Vector's right, they are indeed from Ray. I just got them the other day, and WOW, what great craftsmanship!

Unfortunately I haven't had time to try them, as I just got back from a trip of rock climbing, rapelling, kayaking, caving, traversing and camping, so now I've got to catch up with school work....stupid a$$ calculus.

Great just hold like normal but rest the thumb on top of the bend and its great, really flexs to the pins w/o over seating them, my favorite is the varieation, my hand fits perfect in it and the small black grip keeps my thumb from slipping its good stuff :D

I used my babies today several times, popped open my 5 pin deadbolt practice locks without a problem, then did 3 lock outs, all simple knobs/deadbolts, but did it in a heartbeat! Can't wait to open more locks!

My favorite is the bogota rake with the ergo handle, I absolutely love the handle. It fits my hand perfectly, and impossible to drop (not that it's a problem :P).

Great picks Ray, it trulely is amazing to see what can be done with hand tools in the right hands.
