Does anyone have a list of the thickness of picks by Brand?

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.

Does anyone have a list of the thickness of picks by Brand?

Many thanks, Storm

As a locksport hobbyist, I think you would enjoy acquiring more lockpicks and miking them out. You can never have enough tools.

Why limit yourself to just thickness? Why not compare composition, hardness, flexibility and other features related to the intended purpose of the pick?

How do you plan on objectively comparing composition, hardness, flexibility, and "other" features?

Thanks guys, but my thread was about thickness.. not composition, as i was wondering what the Brands identified as being the best thickness for EU (ie Slimline Picks).
