Lock Picking
November 29, 2006
Ah, I finally ordered a lock picking set. Southern Ordinance’s Outlet has blemished 14-piece (MPXS-14-O) set for just over US$30 after shipping.
Now I can stop screwing with bent paperclips, T-pins, and screwdrivers when playing with lock picking.
That set is way nicer than mine. But mine has more street cred because I bought it from a shady locksmith at a swap meet. He also copied keys that said “DO NOT COPY” on them. Wicked shafty.
Ha, nice. I think most places will, provided you act with enough authority, though.
There was a set I saw on eBay earlier with a bunch of tools, full sets of Quikset and Schlage bump keys, car stuff, everything. It was about $100 or so, but I just don’t need that much yet.
Need one
I need one of these…we locked ourself out of our house 3 weeks ago. If I had a set of these in my car life would easier and time wouldn’t be wasted :)
Re: Need one
Doh, yeah. The problem you’ll have is once you learn just how insecure house locks are, though. ;)
Re: Need one
Besides being locked out of our house 3 weeks ago I successfully picked a lock with some paper clips in the past.. probably a few years ago. But since we were locked outside there wasn’t any paper clips available on our lawn. I thought about going to my neighbor to borrow some paper clips but I don’t want to allude them to the fact that my wife lock us out and become the laughing stock of our subdivision. We were planning on relaxing that Sunday afternoon but instead we wasted 4 hours of the day :)
