The triple peak, short hook, offset hybrid and city rake are the backbone of any professional set. The narrow profile from the handle to the tip of the picks makes them perfect for North American, European and Asian Locks. This set also includes six tension wrenches of various sizes. One of the most important skills you will learn is proper tension; it is the key to successful lockpicking. With this set, you will be able to learn how to pick a lock in a no time at all.

All of these tools are made of the same material as our full professional lines.

Once you have mastered this set of picks you can then move on to the expansion set. The Expansion Set includes an all-new set of picks and wrenches so you will not have any doubles in your kit.

Technical Descriptions of Lock Picks

The “Standard short hook” or lifter is the first “go-to” pick in the arsenal. This Pick is more versatile and is used more often than any other pick. It is designed to let the picker feel of the intricacies of the lock and manipulate pins individually. When the pick is used in a raking type technique it is also possible to work several pins at the same time. This pick is good for a wide range of keyway types, and pinning arrangements.

The “City Rake” is a standard rake that has proven to be indispensable over the years. This pick does a fantastic job of emulating the key bitings found among most common commercial and residential locks such as Kwickset, Weiser and master.

The “Offset Hybrid” is a combination of a shallow hook, and a rounded half diamond. The wedge-like point and specially rounded bottom edge slides through the keyway. With the pick acting as a centered fulcrum you will find that this pick has extremely smooth and controlled lifts. This is critical for locks like ASSA.

The “Triple-Peak” is used on the withdrawal stroke and is one of the most effective rakes available. It differs from a traditional rake in the way it functions by using a “ramping” effect similar to bumping. Similar to the double peak with different spacing.

All lock picks are manufactured by Sparrows out of American Made 301 Cold Max steel with average tension strength of 280,000 PSI.

This Set has changed over the time to improve its overall effectiveness.
As more information and new methods are developed it only makes sense to change the Kick start, Expansion Set and Grad to fulfill their rolls as steeping stones in developing a great picking set.
To do this the kick start needs to have the 4 most practical picks, then the expansion and grad must build on top of that set.
