Here is a set of picks I am working on for my youngest daughter. I have a half diamond I need to make and then it will be complete other than tension wrenches and the case. She enjoys lock picking so i made these to surprise her.

Nice. Maybe for Father's Day she'll ask you to buy some locks for her to use the picks on.

Very nice picks.

If you want to make them a little more comfortable. Wrap a few turns of tape around the handles before you put on the shrink wrap.

A thicker handle makes them a bit more comfortable to use.

What steel did you use?
