anyone had a pick at one of these yet?

[Eyes_Only]

Looking through that site but can't find any real internal operational details about it. Wonder whats so special about it?

[Rickthepick]

They had a stand at the icl show but i never got round to having a good look.

from what iv seen its an antisnap, antidrill dimple lock, not sure what else it has to offer

[loki-aka]

Doesn't it feature key control and a magnetic pin ?

[braddockpicker]

I agree with the other person I to believe it has a magnetic pin. Sorry i have no idea of its exact location.

[Rickthepick]

found some info:

-patented snap secure technology: Automatically locks cam against case when under attack

-magnetic pin and key technology

-10 pin

[Rickthepick]

il order one in as stock

[Rickthepick]

doesnt look too taxing.

notice how this chap magnetizes his pick to defeat the magnetic pins

Got it this morning and had picked it half hour later,

pretty easy once you sort the magnetic pin out.

I used a southord half diamiond as its stainless and doesnt pull the magnet out when your picking.

magnet i filed to size to fit perfectly over the front pin chamber

over-rated lock really but good in terms of destructive opening

[Rickthepick]

took me longer to get this pic off my phone than to pick the lock

[Rickthepick]

just realised i have the mk1.

the mk2 has the magnetic pin further back in the cylinder and looks to have an extra telescopic pin

[Rickthepick]

was having trouble picking it again, turns out i had the magnet in wrong pole round
