Custom lock picks by UKLOCKPICKA

[uklockpicka]

These are my new style picks, they are made from solid hardwood, then are shaped and varnished to give them the sheane, and really helps show the woods natural characteristics. The varnish also prevents dirty figure prints staining the wood and protects the wood. The hardwood I used is called Ash. The steel I use to fabricate my picks is hacksaw blades, ground down and shaped and then through the various sand paper grits to give a polished finish. The polished finish really helps the pick glide through the locks core for excellent feedback. The tips of the picks are made with straight and rounded ends.

The picks I make can also be made to order if anyone is intrested : )

Great looking picks. Very well finished. I like the lines where the round end of the handle meets the pick shaft at the bottom. How thick are the handles?

The pick altogether is 8mm thick including the steel buddy.
