very nice. I usually put the thread locker on the male side as I find it easier to get the right amount as well as cleanup any extra. That is a neat looking little tool!
It's often easier to put a couple of drops of threadlocker on a plastic bag or something, then dip the cocktail stick in it and use that to paint the threadlocker where you need it.
When the pick set is on a ring, though, can you use the picks? It looks like the design connects the two together, prohibiting you from selecting a single pick. That's a bit of a bummer. 🤔
Covert Instruments similar picks seem a better option. Slim Pickings, riv pick, rizz pick etc. No shade, I love to see new products, the more the better. But when they are lesser than other alternatives its interesting but only that.
Very cool. But in my country, New Zealand, if I was found with them on a keyring by police I would then be charged with carrying them to a burglary. I was pretty happy a couple of months ago to find that ownership and the importing of lockpicks isn't illegal. But carrying them with the intent of doing a burglary is. So now I am happily waiting until I have the money to order a quality set from Australia, and then I will finally fulfill a lifelong dream. Learning to pick locks
@Nudgeworth We have the same law here in the UK, it is called "going equipped" here. There usually needs to be a bit of history of trying to break into things before they would waste the courts time with it. I wouldn't worry about it. Unless you have history of house/car breaking.
@Nudgeworth PS. Don't spend a lot of money if you haven't done it before. Buy a cheap set of picks and a couple of see through locks before you spend big. It can get very expensive very quickly, and believe me when I say it is a thousand times harder than it looks in video like these. It took me 3 days to open my first lock.
Yes it's called "going equipped", and there has to be some intent to commit burglary or at least plausible suspicion of. That said, imho many lock picks could well be classed as an offensive weapon, so illegal to carry regardless of intent (in the UK). Non-locking _folding_ picks would be ok though.
@Aitch-Two-Oh Would need to be less than 2.5" too if they were going to try and accuse someone of carrying an offensive weapon. If they do go down that road, I reckon that you have done something to piss them off. Without previous convictions, I would expect that any court would at worst do anything worse than admonish you.
I want you to pick the hardest lock you have for not warning me about that file SCREECH before you done it. Ps, I'm not joking. Or am I? Either way, PICK YOUR HARDEST LOCK TO PICK WITH IT NOW!! ❤🙂
Lock Noob, we need a link to the vendor. Great looking tool. Very sleek.

Yes, the ring locks the picks in

I'm just wondering, does carrying a credit card pick, a screwdriver, a file, and a bottle of threadlock, count as "going equipped" ?

There's no short supply of gimmick picks. *NGL though, if I could afford it I'd buy em all just to collect em.*

Always, always, follow local laws. It’s not worth the consequences
