Dutch Picks

Postby Striker » 6 Oct 2007 11:04

Hi there,

I'm new here and I've tried to create a pick and tension wrench from hairpins. I think both of them are not really good so I'm thinking of buying a set and then try again on creating them. So here comes my question to all the Dutch lockpickers out there. Is there any store in Holland that sells picks? Or do I have to order it via the Internet from some foreign site?

Cheers,
Andrew

By the way, I'm starting with an ABUS N 65/30 lock, is that a good starter lock?

Ok thanks, by the way about that buying question. I heard somewhere that in Holland you need a locksmith certificate to buy locks, can anyone confirm this? cause if that is so, does that also apply for locks bought over the Internet?

The site sponser and most other online stores do not require any sort of locksmith certification that im aware of. I think both the HPC and Falle picks may do however.
