(968) Review: Dangerfield PRAXIS Dual-Gage Lock Pick Set

  • This is a review of the new Dangerfield PRAXIS Dual Gage Lock Pick Set. The kit includes TWO lock pick sets, one in 0.023" that are thick enough to take abuse, and a second identical set in 0.015" for narrow and paracentric locks. This is the IDEAL advanced kit, yet has everything a beginner needs too as long as you are careful with the thinner picks while learning. UK Bumpkeys has TWO warehouses, one in the UK and the other in the US. Both links as below so be sure to pick the one closest to save big on shipping!

    Bill, thank you sir from the very bottom of my heart for your fantastic knowledge and experience that you have freely shared for all these years. Thank you for your patient and kind voice that has at times in my life gotten me through anxious and sleepless nights, where I’ve queued up your videos and listened to your soothing voice and somehow got through. Thank you!
    I’ve returned to this video because after I watched this I bought this set and this is what started me off. It’s a fantastic kit that I still use for narrow keyways.
    I wish you the best sir, in your well earned retirement, and you are blessed to have a family to be able to share it with. Definitely the highest priority.
    Again, thank you!

    I just got this set. Prior to this I just had a beginner Southord set that didn't have a bogata and I broke 3 picks and a tension wrench out of it (my fault, not Southords!). These Praxis picks are very nice, and it didn't take much cleaning to make them very smooth. So far, I'm loving it.

You might also consider the Southord C2010 - but then you need to buy extra TOK-tensioners (btw - you can never have too many tensioners of any BOK or TOK kind; expect to modify them to fit a particular lock).

  • @ipick4fun27
    @ipick4fun27 3 роки тому

    When I started out and looking for picks, I look for "beginners" pick sets. I bought about 3 different sets trying to learn picking. The problem is that they are all too thick and don't have good tensioners. I ended up buying 3 sets tensioners from Sparrows to get everything shown here. 3 months into picking, I finally come to the conclusion that 70% of the "beginners" picks / rakes I owned are pretty useless. Had I start with this set, I would have saved so much money and have a great set of picks. I just compare my favorite picks / rakes / tensioners are all in this set and they come in two different thicknesses. This set is probably the next one for me to buy.
    My favorite picks are - Short hook, The GEM - medium hook, Deforest Diamond - deep hook. & 3 peak Bogota. .040" and .050" TOK tensioner + few L shape ones. I don't use anything else.

    What a lovely set!! Would love to win this kit. I bought a kit with my minimal knowledge and it was for the USA locks and I'm UK. So my bad. Shame really cause I'm really wanting to get ahead in this game and become a locksmith with a good business in the future after leaving the army not long ago. Only done 4 years so no leave package. However Bill gave me some great advice through email for a kit from Madbobs but with xmas coming up and the kids here then I'm just waiting to see how good santa is going to be to us all the kids. Hopefully some good deals can be had in the stores. All the best Bill!

    The pick slots are loose and there is a hole in the case underneath the zipper that allows picks to fall out of the case. I lost a pick before I discovered the problem. Dangerfield is aware of the problem but still shipping the set so you will need to get a different case for the picks.
