Hi :)

I have Pick handles like these:

Are they simply to strap onto a pick or do I have to do more with them, like heating them like shrink tube?

I have these on my HPC picks, they just slide onto the pick handle. they do not shrink onto the handle, you can remove them.

Take a look at top half diamond:

I'm 99% sure the ones on lockpicks.com are the same product.

Thank you :)

A question about the two picks left of the Medeco: Are these combined picks and tension wrenches?

Yes, and they are made as a set, so you bend them both as one so they nest together.

That is a pair of Bogota rakes by Raimundo. You must have heard of Bogota picks since you joined the forum in 2014...
