And my go to tension tool is the HPC TR-4. When picking American padlocks, my go to tension tool is the VV-6.

Classic choices that are not usually praised nowadays but are really good choices. You ever try LAB turning tools, too?

Re: Favorite /go to pick

beautiful picks out there! :)
FF that looks fantastic. Is the handle carbon or does it only looks like?

:???: ... ... Why wouldn't that work?

LOL :D

As for my go to: it's a simple HPC short pick polished up. I know not as fancy as many of those picks here but somehow it works for me :)
