I been looking at the vast collection of bump keys out there and they offer a lot of American brand bump keys but I am uk based so I was wondering if anyone can recommend a place to pick some ones up from.

Peterson's bump keys have worked best for me so far. I couldn't get my bump keys to work until I got a good bump hammer and figured out how to mete out a tiny amount of tension. Now that I got the hang of it, a bump hammer isn't entirely necessary but will look much more professional if I am ever hired on as a locksmith (fingers crossed.)

Good luck with getting hired I am just starting out and it isn't easy :) I decided to my own bump keys by hand in the end, I think this way I will hit the most used brands and expand as I go.

i know this is an old post. But, i recommend "probumpkeys.com" i bought a set from this site a couple weeks ago, their quality is great with a good selection of sets, and i haven't had any problems with any locks using their keys.
