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.
Can anyone direct me somewhere where I can find warded picks, but NOT the dinky little ones on the little keychain? I would prefer actual "pick" shaped ward picks so that they would fit into my case. Anyone seen or heard of a place where I might find a set like this? Or are the little ones the only ones around, and are they designed like that for a reason? Thanks in advance.
I've never seen anything like that. The key looking kind are what is "normal" because using them requires you generate some torque. The key shape is much better for this. What you essentially have with the warded picks is a pick AND a tensioner.
