Do you know if these parts, devices, etc. are made by the same manufacturer as Dino? I recently purchased the Dino Navigator set which was decent enough accept the chrome plating was already peeling off the pick blades when I got them. Also the pick handles look very similar to the Dino handles.

Not sure Bud,
Like I said they are kind of crappy, send some pics of the DINO brand. But another thing a friend of mine who deals with importing ans manufacture in Asia said the copying of each others products is rampant.

See this thread, I posted a link to my dino set,
viewtopic.php?t=15773
in that thread the discussion was about brockage navigator set and dino navigator set. I have the dino navigator set and it looks identical to the brockage. Turns out Rogan Ind was the manfg for both.
I see very similar styles on New Sparkling but of course if copying is so rampant, how could we be ever sure?
thx

Well funny, I have just got the set from Lockmasters and yes they are the same, I even think they are the manufacture for the both products.

Heh, did anyone notice that newsparkling's item numbers are exactly the same as Szhuang's... but the prices are much, much higher?
There may, in future, be a way for people to obtain reasonably small quantities from Szhuang. Don't expect anything soon, though.

Hello
ALSO, I forgot to add, squelchtone is asking about picks for KABA dimple locks. Are you aware of the 'metal tape' impressioning system? Works excellent for KABA locks.
