Another solid video Sandman! You got Sparrowed 😂That's some proper shade! The "exact replica of his set..." should come with a (Your experience may vary).
Thank you though for being very fair to Kilimaru (not to say you weren't with Sparrows). When I first saw this set get released my thoughts were that they seemed neat but niche. Look and presentation was interesting but the two pictures Sparrows put out for them were very poor quality and hard to tell what was going on with them in detail. Seeing them here I get why!
Like you said, a $20 curio set maybe, but $120 cdn!?! One could get all of Jimy Long's flat, round, and diamond/gem 4 pick sets (12 great picks), and still have enough left for a CI Genesis or turning tool bundle!
Thanks for all you are doing. I feel like some of these are PSA's for the lock picking community. The last thing I'd want is some new pickers grabbing these only to get frustrated and give up a cool hobby/skill they might otherwise found great fun.
Sandman. Thanks for paving the way with your funds and steering us clear of the hot garbage.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the review, I bought the turning tools a few months back and I thought I was just dumb. I am just starting, but I just couldn't get them to work on locks I've already picked. They look cool, but just don't work like they should. Thank you for all that you do, keep it up.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video. Sparrows unfortunately missed the mark with these and did no service to the original design creator. I have unfortunately also seen a recently new lock sport community member with these. I could only imagine how frustrated I would have been learning on these, and would have likely given up because they are so large i would be oversetting pins, not able to feel anything in the lock and would have probably been stumped at the white or yellow belt level.
Thanks for watching!
Ive got a couple of kileramu tensioners and without them I'd never have opened the master lock 19, but then i did have it in a vice.😊
Thanks for watching!
THX for the kind words and obviously u know u re a friend,
And Also u got my respect 😊
I know that set doesen't "Shine" on USA locks unfortunately... 🥲
I sent to Sparrow a lot of other cncepts to works on, i'm still trying to innovate and offer Always Something "new and fresh" to play with...
Something we win sometimes not...
Anyway i will be glad to send u a bonespick set to play with and see a nice "SHOWTIME!"
Keep up the good work! 😉🤜
Woah. The master himself. So awesome. You’re a true innovator man. All the legends in the world like you took time to perfect things. I can’t wait to see what you come up with in the future. I think these picks are so awesome and ingenious. You have a beautiful mind.
This is insane. I saw this set and thought it looked ridiculous, but never noticed the size of the tips, and all the other failures. Thanks Sandman
Thanks for watching!
Hello Sandman, I also first used the killermaru set on a master lock similar to the one you've used. What I had found was that the tension tools are so thin they wedge themselves in a way that makes it difficult to turn properly by creating friction when applying tension. I had to use a different tension tool in order to fit the rake with the most teeth in the set to pick the lock.
Also, in terms of quality assurance; the two hook lockpicks you received are actually not in the images shown in sparrows kirigami lockpick set page, but rather, an additional rake. Maybe sparrows should update the images, considering some customers may base their decision solely on what they see in the images on their page; and maybe a list of the contents included in the description.
The positive side to this; at least sparrows has this set on the advanced section of their website. But they should go on further to note that killermaru is from italy, therefore, these lockpicks are primarily inspired by UK/EU locks that killermaru sees from day-to-day; making it a bit challenging for North American Locks.
Very good points. I agree entirely. Thank you very much for watching.
When I saw this come out my first reaction was "who the hell is this for?" None of the tools looked practical in any way, and this just confirms that suspicion. Good job as always
Thank you!
I was very curious about them but then I saw how the reddit community always cite them as the example of the least useful kit there is. People mention the look, but I never see them used in "opens" photos or videos. And then your video came out and explains why.
I have them and really dont mind them not my go to tools but very pretty and interesting. As for sparrows products i honestly really like them for the price. I have petersen moki and southord but my sparrows are always the ones i reach for. Currently in locksmithing school and set the record for most picks and rekeys in an hour using sparrows. This is a collectors set not meant for hard use.
Lol I found this video 20 minutes after placing my order for the tension wrenches. Guess I'll think to look here first!
I completely agree with you about the quality of the set. I bought just the tension tools and can't get them to work for me. I do think the tensioners are designed to be used while the lock is fixed in a door or a vice. Otherwise, I can't imagine how the springs work.
Thanks for watching!
LMAO I’ve only used the tensioners and had the same experience. I wasn’t sure if his concepts didn’t come through with sparrows production or what but they were definitely subpar in every way.
Becoming one of the best channels
According to wikipedia the briolette is a style of gemstone cut - an elongated, faceted pear shape. I guess the handles resemble this style. Thanx for the review.
I got these as I was intrigued about rhe tensioners (this was before they sold them separately) and also don't quite get it. I read somewhere that they were designed to prevent overtensioning. I'm glad I got them to add to my collection and the case is cool but I wouldn't recommend them. Killermaru's picks are works of art. I see Sparrows sells 1 of his picks with 1 wrench for $225, a big difference to this set!
"That's just like, your opinion, man" and I for one, agree with your opinion. I remember seeing these come out and thought long and hard about pulling the trigger. Glad I didn't buy them. $20 would be a good deal but then too many people would get suckered into buying them and never be able to pick a lock. Once again, Sparrows nails it with awesome aesthetics and the cool factor but drops the ball with the thing that matters... usability. Now what I really want to know is did you blow your money on the Thunderbird set and if so I NEEEED to see that review! Thanks again and keep up the good work.
I haven’t pulled the trigger on the thunderbird yet, they are replicas of Ratyoke picks and I have about 15 or more of those already. I can tell you those thunderbirds they are hot garbage from the few that have bought them.
Yup, have had this set for about 6 months also and Sandman is correct on all points. However, it does look cool. LOL
Thanks for watching!
I am wish I would have found this channel sooner. I didn’t buy this set, but I have bought some other Sparrow’s stuff that I wasn’t super impressed with, and I could have come here first to see if it’s been reviewed. Thank you!
Welcome aboard!
I would call that a coil spring.
Thanks for watching!
I did buy these cause they looked super cool, but I am finding the picks I reach for are probably the simplest ones I have. Anyway I have some cool picks to show off now
Thanks for watching!
I'm glad you did this review. I have the tension tools and don't use them, I want to like them. Maybe Sparrows did (face palm) their thing to them.
Thanks for watching!
I finally get ittt!! It's so u and a partner can pick a lock together ❤️ 😂one holds the other squeezes the tips w plastic lol 😆
the world may never know! Thanks for watching!
Yeah this was a Great review. Honest and presice.
He got Sparrowed alright! 😂
It looks like they made the pieces of this set 150% to 200% the size they should have been. Anybody got a shrink ray?
😂
"Honey! I shrunk the picks!"
Hey Sandman, I'm waiting your 'poker's and 'scrubby set design LOL Keep on keeping on
I've added you to the waiting list! thanks for watching!
Always with the facts 💯 like it or don't lol 🤷
Thanks for watching!
I've been unhappy with sparrows for a while, poorly made tensioners and picks that need tons of polishing. Southord too, had a set of those and they bent easily like they were made of aluminum.
They both seem like companies that were some of the biggest game around in 2000's - early 2010's and then let themselves go (Southord) or fell into their own marketing BS (Sparrows).
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching!
Get well again Devil Dog. I agree with the picks being trash. Someone sent me them as a gift. I hate sparrows. Like you, Ive been picking locks for over a decade. Hell we met (I think) on Keypicking years ago. Im mr sour. Stay true to yourself.
Hey Mr. Sour! Hope all is well. I interviewed hallis chalmers a while back. there is now a keypicking discord channel. but it is just as dead as the website.
@@sandman_locksport unfortunate. It was the mecca back in the day.
I love comments. I got the turning tools of these and I think I will try and use on bigger locks. I have a master no. 19 and I will let you know the results.
Thanks for watching!
Everything i have gotten from sparrows is total cheap junk. The mini gutting mats with the plug follower and tweezers is about the only thing i would recommend from them. One question, is the sparrows disc detainer pick worth getting? Thats one thing i havent gotten from them, but i am nervous since of my other experiences with sparrows
I honestly don’t know. I own it and a few other disc detainer picks. But I do not pick those types of locks because they are not common here in America. It’s still something I’m trying to learn.
All over FB. When I got mine I opened it and was like damn. Damn I’m embarrassed to say I got sparrowed. -Go Army!
I know the feeling! Go Navy!!
I really wish I had found your channel before I got sparrowed. 😐
Sorry, English is not my mother tongue… do you recommend this set? 😂
Joke apart, this one has been a very easy pass for me. I always use the thickest tension tool and picks possible to get maximum feedback, I will definitely never buy tension bars / picks with springs everywhere. For sure it look cool but I just don’t get it. No I don’t want lamp bulbs painted black, I don’t want sticky pans, and I don’t want spingy picking tools!
Agree!
Well this is the set I WAS gonna get let's see what verdict the sandman give it!
I'm guessing stay away unless getting them for a collection and not for picking locks. For $100+ you could do way better going somewhere else /IMO
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching!
Another odd and weirdly marketed pick set I'd like to see your views on is Southern Specialties' The Force & Sith set. They also have only one or two garbage pictures that seem to obfuscate the quality of the picks, which I felt was somewhat the case with these from Sparrows (Scale and the Black on black).
Someday! Thanks for watching!
I guess the tension tools are for door locks. You are holding a lock. If you are picking a door lock then you would be able to use the tension tools as they where designed for. One hand for pick the othe for tensioning Just my two cents. I will not by of use that set
That is possible. Thanks for watching!
To be honest, the only tip I would give you is to look at other UA-camrs and then you'll understand how the tensioners work.
It's just different than the Covert tool.
Thanks for watching!
This is great. Thank you 👍🏻👍🏻🤣🤣
Thanks for watching!
I’ve loads from sparrows and main picks and loads multi pick sets
Thanks for watching!
I bought this set from sparrows for like $95 but I would much rather have his real handmade picks & not something that sparrows had made cheap like everything else they put out anymore
Where do you buy your kw1, sc1 & sc4 colored padlocks?
I really enjoy your hot garbage reviews. You could create a persona like Angry Video Game Nerd, but for poorly designed pick tools and locks. That kind of thing makes me laugh. And you are doing real community service with those reviews.👍How does Sparrow respond publicly for being called out for their travesties?
They never respond, they don’t return emails, they steel other companies designs, and they have their comments turned off on their UA-cam channel.
I've told UA-cam repeatedly that certain ads are unwanted or inappropriate, and yet they continue.
Thanks for the review. Don't let the hate give you an ulcer. 🤘
Thanks for watching!
We're gonna need a bigger boat!

Theyre called coil springs.
Thanks for watching!
Hey sandman 👋
Thanks for watching!
It’s always me
Thanks for watching!
The turners are crap. And it seems like the pick handles have no purpose, I thought they might have been a mix of pick and manual pick gun, you know like squeeze the handle and it makes the rakes jump up. I have bought a lot of Sparrows but was never in a rush for this set as it was too odd looking.
Thanks for watching!
Covert Instruments. ALL. DAY. LONG. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
You could have taken two minutes to shave your chest, which would have stopped the issue with the bandages. I guess you'd just rather not, so you'd have something to whine about.
I was waiting for your mom to shave it for me!
I like the larger handles on them
Thanks for watching!
