klom picks

[jhl]

These KLOM sets are cheap (as long as you don't buy from newsparkling), and the quality is actually quite decent for such cheap picks. You get a wide range of picks; some are useless shapes, but most are good. The inclusion of a few dimple tools in most of their sets is nice. (Not just matadors, but twist lifters too).

The metal flexes reasonably well (these are hard to bend accidentally), and the handles are comfortable (textured rubber).


I'm a fan - keeping in mind they are budget picks, and I am not particularly laden with money.

Hey JHL, do ya remember where you got them from? was it apollo automotive in hong kong? and what price in AU$

Hey Rai,if you was to get them from apolo automotive they cost £15 thats roughly $30 in todays price's , why not e-mail them for a price list yourself

Mine came from the Chinese chaps who run szhuang.com; I don't think they do individual-sized orders, but they have roughly current prices on their website.
The KLOM sets are all 20-30 USD.

how did ya read that site, I don't read or translate the chinese script, but most of the site is in some kind of computer encoding.

the english scraps are enough to get by... check out the domestic & import locksmith tools sections on the left menu.

I own this pickset and as many people have said about half of the picks are useless. I am a great fan of the hook pick and this set has several of them and they are all different. It DOES have many auto picks, 2 dimple picks, 2 rake style picks, and several odd shaped picks that I will not use but I paid under $33 USD for the item and got free shipping. Everyone should check out www.dealextreme.com for this pick set and a few others made by KLOM. The DX base is in China so it takes about 2 weeks to receive items here in the US plus it has to go through Customs!

As far as the actual picks go, they are very cheap and well made. Im rough on picks and tend to bend picks that I use. These KLOM have held up very well. DX has a 100% satisfaction guarantee as far as the products are concerned. If you are dissatisfied with a product (if it breaks) within 30days they pay shipping and replace it. If its after 30 days then you pay shipping to their closest place of business (here in the US they have a base in Florida) and they send you another set FREE!
