This is the lock pick set that I ordered.


I want a top-of-the-keyway pry bar (tensioner) and a bogota rake, but other than those, I'm pretty happy with the set.

I have managed to open the lock in the video using 6 different picks and 3 or 4 different techniques. I have also managed to use a few picks and a few techniques on the kwikset door lock that I bought. Now I need more locks to get more practice.
