A basic starter set of high quality, full size lockpicks and tension wrenches to get you well on your way to learning the art of lock picking or simply developing your existing skillset. The Lockpicking Starter Set contains: 5-piece Full Size Lockpick Set: Fully custom made for Tuff Possum Gear from 0.025″ thick tempered stainless steel. This is a selection of the five most useful profiles for “in the field” use and easy/medium skill level, based on my personal preference and the recommendations of many folks far more knowledgeable than I ever will be. Unlike the stubby handle picks in the Entry Kit, these have full length handles for an overall length of 4.68″. The five lockpick profiles are:– Short Hook w/ flat top (And essential for single pin picking.)– Half Diamond (Handy for single pin picking, zipping, etc.)– City Rake (looks like a jagged mountain range. Used for rocking and raking.)– Triple Peak, Large Wave Rake (AKA the popular triple peak Bogata pattern and perfect for “raking”. One of my personal favorites)– Five Peak, Small Wave Rake (a handy variation of the wave rake, popularized by TOOOL, The Open Organization Of Lockpickers) 3 Piece Tension Wrench Set: Getting a good tension on a lock is crucial to good picking. Each one of these three picks are a different thickness and double ended for a total of 6 different tension options to fit a multitude of keyway situations. The wide/long ends are for “bottom of the keyway” and the narrow/short ends are for “top of the keyway” tensioning. They are color coded: Red is .030” thick, White is .040” thick, and Blue is .050” thick. A sturdy plastic, telescoping “drill bit tube” storage case. All tools in the set are proudly Made In The USA!
