Jingles... did you heat some of the paper clips? I assume not to make them easier to bend, so that must mean you were trying to harden them, right? That's not going to hurt or help, because when push comes to shove they are still only paper clips. Try safety pins if you must. They are slighty less likely to bend and snap off in a lock.
They are nifty looking, and I don't doubt 3 of them might work once(s.hook, reach hook, and maybe the small peak rake) but mostly they are a good way to jam a lock with a paper clip. I think you know that, and that's why they are an "emergency" set.
You do have the finest set of Scooby Doo paper clip lock picks I have ever seen though, and if nothing else they are good for a grin. That's cool too.
