Used it (Mini Jim) for the first time Thursday, there was an attempted break in on a garage and they turned the handle so hard it just spun, mini Jim slid right in, I thought I got it stuck but the notch had just engaged the latch, tugged the paracord to pull it back and latch popped. It's a perfect size and just rigid enough to get the job done without being too bulky.

Cool thanks for the info man. I used to carry some mica in my wallet but i lost it somewhere in my journeys. I've thought about making my own from some feeler gauge but if Sparrows did em up right I might have to make a purchase. Can you tell me what the dimensions are if you got a minute? The website doesn't say

Sure thing! These work? (Caliper pictures for thickness are in Metric first, then Standard second shot) I think that's about 20 or 21 gauge?

With the lightning bolts? They call it a "mini knife" I believe (guessing, pure guessing) it's used for decoding combo wheels, like those found in a briefcase? Again, just a guess, haven't used it, just came with the set.
