I just want something to take apart most locks, nothing exotic. If not do you guys have any recommendations for a better set? Thanks in advance!

well, i guess thats what makes us different, lol.
I prefer hollow ones because some plugs have a smaller and extended tails that a solid plug follower just wont do the job proper, imo.

For Kwikset, Schlage, etc I normally just use plastic followers. I have that 4 piece set and it does come in handy. I also have a larger plastic follower for Corbin cylinders, and a custom made aluminum one for Sargent key in knobs (has a slot in it)

HLFlake has these in brass for 17 bucks, so I think I'll go for that. Thanks for the advice, guys!
