Dangerfield Praxis Dual-Gauge Complete Lock Pick Set Pro-Grade 21-Piece Lock Picking Kit | Dual Gauge Stainless Steel Picks & Tension Tools | Ideal for Beginners to Experts + Ebook

I bought this as a second set after getting a cheaper set for a Birthday present. The cheaper set was great and got me going but I soon found that over half of the padlocks I was buying to practice with I couldn't use because of the thickness of those picks. A bit of research got me to this set as a good one for beginners so I made the purchase. When the set arrived I have to admit I was a little disappointed in how flimsy they seemed, I don't know why but I expected the handles to be thicker. No reason for this, just my own thoughts on how they'd be. But, that said - I was soon into the padlocks I'd bought but couldn't practice with before - The picks, while they do feel flimsy, perform well and I actually begun to appreciate the "feedback" that they give (something I'd heard lockpickers talk about on their YouTube channels but hadn't really expereinced with my original kit but now can). I guess my thoughts about them being flimsy at first where a sign of my inexperience and not at all a reflection on the quality of the picks. The picks themselves are well thought out, I tend to use the hooks rather than the rakes and I like the choice of tension bars. I tend to use the Z bar more than anything else but I see the need for other options as well so I'm happy they are there. I had to email about the e-book - The link didn't come through with my order confirmation, this is more a problem with Amazon than the Seller. My email with the link for the e-book came through quickly with a polite message from Gayle apologising for the missing link - All good there. The e-book itself is very good in my (limited knowledge) opinion. It's written in a very easy to understand way. It's almost as though you've got a mate sat next to you explaining everything. It doesn't bog itself down with technical details and gives you all the information you need. Before this I'd learned everything from watching tutorial videos and not given any thought to things I maybe I should have; it's an excellent beginners resource. Overall I am very happy with this purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone whose made a first step in to the world of lock picking and now wants to do a little bit more.

i had a slight problem with my order which was quickly solved by gayle at ukbumpkeys within 2 minutes of me sending them a message!. now that is customer service that many companys sadly lack . these picks are very well made . no burrs or sharp edges that need to be filed down ect . the fact that they are dual gauge is a welcome bonus . the thinner ones fit all euro locks ( uk locks) and to be fair so do the slightly thickers picks . the cut outs on the handles are ok to hold for a while but like all picks will benefit from having a little shrink wrap added . a good polish and you will have one great set of picks. well done to ukbumpkeys . again many thanks to gayle at ukbumpkeys .

First off let me say that this is a brilliant pick set. There's a great variety of picks and tension wrenches. I'm very happy with it. Was it perfect? Absolutely not. My particular set was missing a city rake, instead I had two of the same thickness short hooks. This was sorted out by speaking to UKBumpKeys who were absolutely brilliant and sent me the pick in the post. I had to go out and buy some metal files and sandpaper because about 50% of the picks had a terrible finish to them, they were almost serrated. It's not the quality I would have expected for this price, but on the flip side it was nice to spend time making the picks nice and smooth. Hopefully I just received an item from a bad batch. I would say that the top of the keyway tension hooks are a little lacking. I ended up buying a Sparrow set and only use two of the tension wrenches from this set.

Love this set of picks. Very well made and only require a little bit of finishing with some sandpaper to make them truly useable. The only downside to this set is the thickness of the TOK tensioners, they are not much good with euro locks due to the thickness. Would've been nice to have a thinner TOK tensioner to go with the thinner gauge euro picks. Altogether a very nice set with that one flaw. Good for both beginners and advanced pickers.

The only pick set your gonna need. Great quality and works on most euro locks cylinder locks. I only use 5 of the picks with 100% each time. Don't waste your money on the cheap sets.

I did not get like I said I did not get book or ebook hand dall are small

A really first class product, well packaged and made from the finest 301 steel in two gauges .All the essential pick's to tackle most locks. Contained in a surprisingly strong sided case complete with quality tension tools. The 43 page e-book is very informative and a great addition to the kit. Instead of buying average picks many times buy these once.. Delivered on time in perfect condition. A very happy customer.

Great lock pick set I'm an amateur at lock sport, i started with a cheap chinese set that come with a practice lock..i bought a yale door lock and managed to open it once with the crap chinese ones they're much too thick for the keyway with this new set its way easier, they can be a bit much on your finger after an hour or 2 but I've bought some heatsshrink wrap for them...

La qualità degli strumenti sembra buona, permettono una buona sensibilità durante l'utilizzo. Non c'è però modo di ottenere l'ebook. Nonostante abbia richiesto via mail ad Amazon il link, mi dicono che, venendo il prodotto dall'UK, Amazon.it non può farci nulla, ma che se voglio posso fare il reso. La questione è piuttosto sgradevole sinceramente.

bonjour article recu , il me manque le livre que dois je faire? comme cest marque "ebook" faut il le telecharger?

That's a good set of high quality picks, that comes in two widhts to enable one to lockpick even very slim locks. I've purchased that set from UK bump keys, and there was some issue with customs. But the dealer did not give up, and finaly even payed extra for expedit shipping (voluntarily!), to make up for the inconvinience. Truly some problem solving guys, who deserve 5 stars!

Everything appears to be here that a beginner to lockpicking would need and are of great quality. I would have preferred a plain looking case but it's the contents that matter. Perhaps a disc detainer alignment tool would be a helpful addition but other than than a great set.
