I believe that John Falle lives on one of the Channel Islands (Jersey or Gurnsey) and is considered British. Not sure of the pronunciation, but as another Brit, I'm with toomush on this one, 'fal' sounds reasonable to me.

Wouldn't it be nice to have the man join us and set the record straight?

Having John Falle join these forums would be like expecting the queen to chat with the boys over at the sun or some other similar nonsense.

I would love to see active contributions from John Falle, Marc Tobias, and Matt Blaze. Also a few others would be nice.

Sure, there are a lot of newbies on here, but I think there are a few people here that could at least be on a similar level with these gentlemen.

It would certainly make the site a bit more interesting.

Sure would mate. Yourself, Varj, the two Chucks, Pinky, Chris B, Prodigy, Cormu, would be on the list, to name but a few of the talented folk we have here.

interesting - we do have one user here registered as "falle" but they havn't posted ever - probably just some git pretending...

! never knew about the nut adjustment thing, isn't there also some kind of difference in design though? the ones i saw seem to look different in shape too

If you want to see the nut adjustment thingy, pop over to www.crypto.com and look at Matt Blaze's pics of Falles Torque-Variable wrenches.

but aren't there falle style picks, too? how are those different from standard lockpicks?

by **WhiteHat** » 1 Oct 2004 19:40

falle's probably mostly known for his "deep curve" picks - you could probably find them by searching - or looking on crypto.com

I'm sure there's other tools that are restricted to government etc..

Pronouncing "Falle"

just watching the H2k video with Bary Wells - Barry pronounces "Falle"
like:

"Fulla" or "falla" with both vowel sounds similar to the 'a' in 'hard'

there you go - we were all wrong...

by **WhiteHat** » 11 Oct 2004 8:47

oh - and that can be found when he introduces the Falle set at about 18 mins and 30 seconds into the vid.
