Learning to lock pick can be hard! We always say the most important part of lock picking is learning the correct amount of tension to apply to a lock. This is where the tension wheel is simply an awesome must-have tool!
The Sparrows Tension wheel helps when teaching lock picking – tension control can be difficult to describe to a student. With a marked wheel, you can see the amount of tension being applied and recommend a Zone. This makes some of the initial learning a bit easier.
