I've recently received a new pick set from a popular brand, and I'm already encountering quality issues. This pick actually bent with extremely little effort during a live stream, witnessed by other experienced pickers.
I've contacted the company, and their initial reply seemed more focused on upselling their premium products rather than addressing the core quality concern.
I've since provided them with images and an explanation on how soft with no spring/return these really are. Now I am currently awaiting their second response. I'm giving them a chance for comment and explanation before I post my full review.
π₯ ODIN'S PICKS! A NEW SAGA BEGINS! π₯ Hail, fellow shield-brothers and shield-maidens of the lockpicking hall! π Prepare yourselves for a saga unlike any other, coming to your screens! You've witnessed the skill in the art of the pick, but now it's time to discover which tools are worthy of Valhalla!
Introducing: KING PICK! π Tournament In this new series, two mighty lockpicks will clash in a battle worthy of the gods! Only the strongest will survive!
Here's how I'll find the true King Pick: * Raid after Raid: Each episode, two new warriors will enter the fray. * Runes of Judgment: I shall judge each pick by the ancient runes: * πͺ Iron and Bone (Material Quality): How strong is its heart? * β The Grip of the Gods (Handles): Does it feel worthy in the hand? * π¨ Forged in Fire (Build Quality): Was it crafted by the finest smiths? * β¨ Shining Steel (Finish): Does it gleam like a treasure from a Viking hoard? * π° The Coin's Worth (Price/Value): Does its cost truly reflect its power? * π The Opening of the Gates (The Pick Off!): Can it unlock the secrets of the locks? * To Valhalla! (One Winner Advances): Only one pick will prove its worth, advancing to the next battle until a single King Pick is crowned!
This will be a journey worthy of the sagas! You'll see your favorite picks fight for glory, discover new weapons, and learn the secrets of a true warrior's tool.

Hello everyone. I am a bit late to the party on this one but I would like to hear everyone's thoughts on the McNally and Proven Industries drama that is ongoing. If you are not aware of what happened from what I can gather Proven Industries uploaded a video on how good their lock is, so in good old McNally fashion he opened it with a can (Low Skill Shim attack). Proven Industries have not taken this well and used the feedback to improve their product but instead to upsell their other cores and to file against McNally.
Personally, I think this is bad form from the company. I have included screenshots from some comments made by both parties. Apparently more details will be made public by the end of the month. What are your thoughts?

In this new series, two mighty lockpicks will clash in a battle worthy of the gods! Only the strongest will survive!
Here's how I'll find the true King Pick:
* Raid after Raid: Each episode, two new warriors will enter the fray.
* Runes of Judgment: I shall judge each pick by the ancient runes:
* πͺ Iron and Bone (Material Quality): How strong is its heart?
* β The Grip of the Gods (Handles): Does it feel worthy in the hand?
* π¨ Forged in Fire (Build Quality): Was it crafted by the finest smiths?
* β¨ Shining Steel (Finish): Does it gleam like a treasure from a Viking hoard?
* π° The Coin's Worth (Price/Value): Does its cost truly reflect its power?
* π The Opening of the Gates (The Pick Off!): Can it unlock the secrets of the locks?
* To Valhalla! (One Winner Advances): Only one pick will prove its worth, advancing to the next battle until a single King Pick is crowned!
