SouthOrd was my first pick set purchase way back in the late 1970's when I was in the military. That is an amazing set, and your upgrades are perfect.
William Mancel I never even knew they made commercial picks back then.🤔🍺✌
Don'z Lockz You know, you are right. I must have bought it after getting out because they were established in 1989 and started making their own picks in 1991. Old age is getting to me I guess. 🤣 I was sure I had some picks when I was in the military. Well, I must have bought one of their earlier sets, as it didn't have a model number on the case.
I didn't know we HAD an organized military back in the 70s! What was it like wearing those heavy, long wool coats and funny hats? How heavy WERE those muskets? Did you get to ride a horse? 😃
Bosnianbill cheeky Bill! 😁 William must be civil war vintage.😅
William Mancel it's ok. I'm losing my mind too and I'm younger than you.... still over the hill though.😊
Nice additions to the kit. I especially like the spiral extractor. I keep one of those in my kit. Great for fishing out broken pick tips!
My first commercial pick set was the little five piece Southord set that came with the Easy Pickings booklet. Four picks and one wrench. Used them for 25 years. Still have the short hook, half diamond and snake rake.
Just want to thank you, sir, for your reviews and easy-to-understand videos. Like many others, I binge-watch all of your videos and try to learn something from every one. I took your advice and replaced my CHEAP Amazon-purchased pick kit by investing in this quality set. I even went so far as to purchase the recommended add ins. I look forward to my continued learning with BETTER tools. You said it...you get what you pay for. Keep up the great work. Stay safe.
It’s great you always tell what you like about a kit and also show ways to improve it as well
Love the idea of adding the ruler so we can get another reference point for the scale of the pics and the set.
Is it just me or was anyone else drooling over this kit 😊
That's a very nice kit, but wouldn't .022 still be a bit on the thick side for euro locks? The praxis kit has .023 for US locks and .015 for euro locks....
BuzzinsPetRock78 I agree, that’s pretty damn thick. Reminds me of what we would find on Walmart website. HA!!!
They are a bit thick, the slimline profile makes them good for quite a lot of euro locks though. I used to use SouthOrd picks a lot before I swapped for mostly Sparrows.
Like many people here, Southord were the first real picks I bought, back in 2002. They are the MPXS 11 and 32. They are still going strong today and not broken any so far.
Those two double-ended thin picks and some handle-less picks + twisted tensioner are in my EDC - a plastic Allen wrench handle that comes with some IKEA furniture kits, slightly modded, makes for a thin and light EDC kit.
Good review, Bill, and a spectacular and unique giveaway after you gave it a turbo boost! 👍
I would love something like this one day. I need to start building my tools up.
What no candy.. my first post here, it has been sed that is a vary large kit.. hope it go's to a good home. . And 5 hanks for all the information you have been so kind to show. .
Kiitos (thank you) to Matthew Hall he told me about your channel.
I have always like trying to pick locks, purely for fun and have made my own picks in the past.
I find it satisfying feeling when I get one open, started in school helping my friends when they forgot there keys, had one friend give me a lock to open because he wanted one that could not be picked :)
I'm not ashamed to say I'd cry if I got this kit. I've been looking to get a top of the keyway tensioner for a while but this would be a waste on me since I usually only use a hook or diamond pick. I don't even know where I'd start. Cool review!
You've just put together the perfect pick set, well done Bill
This kit would be a great set to own.
Bill your videos got me started in the hobby a couple months ago, with an order to Sparrows, and I'm having a good time learning.
Maybe it's just inexperience but for me the top of the key way tensioners are a little easier to use.
Great kit, then improved nicely.
Wow !! 🤤😲😮😯 ABSOLUTELY AWESOME KIT !! 👍
Thank you for the review !!
Wow. What a kit. Great review as usual.
Very nice set of tools!! I have a equal distribution of South Ord, Peterson, and mostly Sparrows.. Great to see the manufacturing industry shaped to our needs, wants, and desires..
I was given an older version of this set that included a set of jiggler keys that are handy.
I wish I had that set. Keep up the great work Sir
we've seen lock picking lawyer come to your place, now we'd like to see you show up at lock picking lawyer's place!
To shoot LPL in the ... other leg?
I really like the euro profile deforest and hooks. While it'd bet nice to win, especially the pimped version. Just too much that I'd probably never used in there.
Wow! That's a crazy kit!
This would be a great starter pick set. I like having options...great review Bill, keep up the great work!
Wow. I generally use a 12 piece set I put together with mostly sparrows picks. This is well....... wow. What more could you bloody well want?
dang, that is a badass kit. very cool upgrades you threw in. thanks
Beautiful set!
Even better with your additions!
That Windows 98 sample in the intro :D
Love it very nice kit thank you for showing
Always great to see you do your reviews of lock picking tools concise easy and very informative keep up the good work Bill. :)
Thank you, sir! I do my best while trying to remain neutral & fair.
You are always neutral and fair that is why I subscribed to you and a few others no bias just the facts and your honest opinions on all your vids. :)
I'd call the one at 2:55 a reverse half christmas tree.
You mentioned that someone could split the set up or could keep the set together so that if something bends you have a backup and do not have to go back to find the picks that you seperated out if the person is slightly heavy handed
that kit is stacked
While not considered as cool or refined as some other brands, SouthOrd makes a decent, durable product. Be sure to check their clearance section.
wow great set... someone got super blessed with this giveaway
Wow talk about adding on to the kit. :)
Crazy, some people just need a Papper clip haha
R.I.P locks
I'm just getting back into picking, so I'm gonna need some new picks :)
What a MASSIVE set? Probably everything you would ever need. 😎🍺🇦🇺
Except dimple picks.
Impressive set. Would be a dream to win it.
WOW that what I call a kit
Very, very nice piece of kit :-)
Such a large kit, yet they leave the boagi and top tension wrenches out. Other than that, it looks like a nice set.
Awesome as usual Bill!
That's an amazing kit!
02:55, SouthOrd calls it a "W-rake"
That's a good kit ty bill
just to let someone know that the weekend give away page still shows video #1316 rather than 1320 for this video.
also the 'You Won' page still shows this item as a "sneak peek".
Awesome bill!
Keep the great content rolling !:)
They need to put wheels on the case and a long handle so you don't hurt your back carrying it :)
Great kit!
Wow very nice kit
Southord was my very first kit nice review my friend👍😊👍😊😎✌
I need to get me one of these!
Wow, nice set!
Wow, what a giveaway!
Wow that is one heck of a give a way!!!
So no dimple picks in the Southord kit?
Nice kit!
What a huge kit!
Can't imagine having all this when I only have about 5 tools in my kit! Guess I'll have to keep my fingers crossed for the giveaway
Excellent review Bill..I would love to win this..or even the top of the key way tension tools..spot on..very Honest and great Review as normal..good job.
very nice kit with the additions have a nice weekend.
now that is a lot of picks O.O
Another great give away I always love the give away's you have you add more to make it better. Good luck everyone on wining .
Thank you for such a Sweet giveaway Mr.Bill
No TOK but nice kit thanks for all you do bill
Great review and giveaway.
No audio issues that I could hear this time either.
Nice looking kit, and nice upgrade Bill! Maybe I shouldn't be, but always find myself surprised that manufacturers don't often add the decoder knife to their kits, or a bypass knife for unshielded padlocks for that matter... basic tools yes, but VERY useful on everyday locks you run into. Maybe they just like to keep those in a separate "bypass kit"? Regardless, nice kit anyone would be happy with! Thanks Bill!
I agree, and if I'd had a knife to throw in I would have. Excellent suggestion & I'd much rather have the knife than the second extractor.
I see your audio has been fixed/improved. It sounds really good, w.e you did worked.
Nice vid, Bill - good kit upgrade
Bill those are some beautiful picks!
Love your channel Bill. I have just recently "picked" up the hobby and give you so many thanks for being as clear as you can be, especially for a noob such as myself, on your explanations of lock picking. I particularly learned a lot from your explanation on tensioning. With that being said I've recently acquired a Almont re-key (sorry if it brings up any bad memories) and this lock seems to be my crux that I've only been able to open it maybe half a dozen times in 4 months. The pins, regardless of light or heavy tension, won't stay down once passed the shear line. Any advice? And you never show yourself picking it, most likely since it fairly easy (for you anyway) think you could fit it in on an episode? Thanks once again. This hobby, and yourself have help me more than you could ever know.
Jose, because the Almonte contains only standard pins AND it is manufactured to fairly tight tolerances, it is very finicky about the binding order. If you pick a pin before its proper sequence in the binding order, it will pop back up and frustrate you. You MUST pick it in the proper binding order to be successful. Good luck! Oh, and welcome to the LockSport Tribe!
Nice set 🍻
That sure is a pretty set Mr.Bill buuut I think it would look sooo much better on my bench!
Hey is it just me or is there a problem with the website? When I try to enter it's still showing its for last weeks Kronos EPG kit.
Fixed. Sorry, but it takes a little time to change the website after posting the video.
Awesome......
I use a lot of southord picks.
Putting my name in the hat...LOL
Hey Bill, I just received my MadBob pick set. I thought they would make me a better lock picker. they didn't open any locks I had, must be a defective set. I'll practice anyway. Liking the videos 😎
Did you check the batteries in those picks? Some of them have cheap Chinese batteries so you need to put in some Duracells before they'll open locks.
Awesome giveaway!!!!
That's a very heavy set.
A lot to carry.
But nothing missing now at least.
Seems more like two sets in one case, doesn't it? If I wanted the handleless to carry about more lightly, wouldn't I want a smaller case for them, so I didn't carry around the full pound-o-steel? Nitpicky, but my first reaction. Thanks for the review, Bill!
Nice giveaway Bill. This was my first pickset. Except my wafer tension wrench was springy shutter wrench instead.
Thank you, sir! Always good to hear from someone that has been using the kit for a long time. My exposure to them is usually limited to a week or two before doing the video. Enough to find glaring deficiencies, but not the subtle ones.
I'd call the unamed pick, a sawblade pick.
Nice
Nice video
Yes, American shafts are always thicker than European shafts which are small and weak
I have a couple of sets for sale on uklocksport. The C2010 and PXS I really like the C2010. Its great quality
Ha I use the Goso crap picks... 8 of them have broken
Audio 100% perfect. Glad you got it fixed. What was the trick?
The ONLY change was to normalize the audio using the "normalize to maximum level" option instead of "normalize to EBU R128". YT actually RECOMMENDS the EBU R128 because it is the standard for broadcasting, but I read on some forums where others were having trouble with it and they recommended changing to max level instead. Must be a YT compression problem when converting to MP3.
I've never trusted R128. I always use the traditional Normalize. It's interesting that made the difference. I think you are probably correct about YT interacting strangely. Actually given your sound environment, you shouldn't really need to Normalize at all. I'm glad you got it going.
Are you going to sell picks? I got into lock picking because of your video's. I would love to buy a set of your picks and rakes
No, sorry. I will never sell picks or anything else. I have enough hassles in my life & don't want to complicate things with an Estore.
cool review would hate to see what you would cal a real all you need kit, more so if you include dimple and mortis and car and any others i forgot . Lol you would need a shopping cart to carry it instead of a coat pocket.
amazing giveaway ; )
I need those ................... :)
The UN-named pick is a "W rake" ..www.southord.com/collections/lock-picks-individual-replacement/products/w-rake-lock-pick-stainless-steel-handle-mp10
wow
