Any ideas for EDC lock picks?

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.

Any ideas for EDC lock picks?

Postby Mr_Bones » 31 Dec 2015 1:33

Hey, I'm trying to come up with ideas for carrying lock picks everywhere with me, here are some of my ideas so far:

• In between phone and case
• In hat
• In shoe
• Maybe hollowing out arms of sunglasses and putting small picks in there?
• In wallet (I usually don't carry a wallet with me though)

Does anyone have other ideas?

I like the idea of keeping them in your phone. I have there 20 euro bill all the time, should test if there is also room for two picks :)

Keep in mind that depending on what state you live in .. EDC a set of lock picks can be considered a crime.. Luckily in Texas unless I am actually committing a crime they are legal to carry

Some phone cases also are designed with compartments to hold credit cards, that might be something to look into.

Why would a locksporter need to carry around concealed picksets?

Probably for the same reason that some of us EDC things like a pocket knife and flashlight everywhere we go.
