That ideal jack knife looks interesting, but I'm not sure of the quality. Also, I don't think it works quite as fast as they would have you believe. Post a review when you get it. :)

Oh, for the DVD's etc., try eBay, there's hundreds.

The problem with something on Ebay that you are buying a Ebook most of the time so beware look that it is a DVD your buying....
You can DL alot of stuff from Emule and other programs for free...

The Ideal Creation mini jackknife pick set is very tiny (which is nice) but by the because it is so small, is really only an emergency pick set. The construction is sturdy but crude (I have seen better home-made here on LP101 :shock:). Still kinda cool, however, because it can really live on your keychain. For your next purchase, I would recommend a small set of Southords to get you into a 'real' pickset. Welcome, and good luck picking :D

Gotta love how repetitive the posts get. :lol:

Just do a search for: best AND buy AND picks

Should come up with at least 10 pages, all for different countries (although I see you're in the US).

A couple are Lockpicks.com, SouthOrd, there are many others.
