![[703] Sparrows Black Flag Dimple Pick Set!](/img/n.gif)
Was I the only one praying that Bill would NOT demonstrate his zipper extension lanyard any further???? Excellent, thorough review as usual bill, and very generous giveaways. Seems Multipick is great at taking consumer feedback, and producing what the folks want, while Sparrows is great at coming up with innovative items we didn't know we wanted, until we saw them! Happy Thanksgiving Bill, and the LockLab Tribe!
That nub on the sandman pick seems to be an indicator from what I can tell. When the tip of the pick is on the 5th pin it is just touches the lock body. 🤷♂️
My guess on the tab on 1 side of the sandman is so you know you have the single hump up when in the lock vs. the 2 hump side since it's reversible.
Doug Masten that’s what I thought it was for too.
I would have thought sparrows would hide a handcuff key in the 'fly zipper cord'!!
Ik right !!! Same shape and everything
Thats a awesome idea
I hoped "NEW Stuff" was going to include the announcement that Bill and LPL had gone into business together and were making a 20mm Vulcan blank powered competitor to the Ramset.
Not all of Europe have the pins down. No idea how common but at least in Sweden (and I assume the other Nordic countries) pins are up. My guess is that it depends on the climate, freezing water and pins down doesn't seem like a good combo to me.
Rolf Karlsson Belgium and surrounding countries Netherlqnds,France,Germany and more, however i do wonder if like in the really cold parts off France and Germany they switch them upside down for your reason or whatever else 🤔
Thank you for your awesome content! Been binge watching from current video backwards. Made it all the way back to vid 863 so far and still love watching them! Just getting started in picking, so, I wanted to thank you for all of the hints and tricks! Keep up the entertaining and great work!
Zipper pull: I think it's a dog whistle. I mean not a literal one, but I have one of their patches on my work bag (office day job), every once in a while someone "in the know" notices it and I get to have a nice conversation about locksporting.
I purchased the kit in 2016. I missed top of keyway tensioners and a bogota. Today, I'd just buy a bogota with the kit, and get a perfect set of picks.
If that loop is slightly elastic, it wraps around a small bundle of objects, then the disk passes through the loop like a button/toggle to secure it.
Zipper pull should have a handcuff key inside it. Just saying
7:33 Bill, I might be a retired one of those "builders, that has no clue about lock "mithing", but I do know this, 99% of all residential exterior doors that I've installed swing inward. When an exterior door which swings inward is closed it's edge is tight against the door stop or door molding and there is no way ( from the exterior) to use your "shove-it tool" or a plain old knife blade to walk the live bolt over (even if the by-pass pin is not depressed), making this tool useless except possibly on commercial doors that occupancy codes require the door to swing outward.
The toggle is added to the back of the handle to make the handle longer, similar to putting a short lanyard on a knife handle
My EOD kit had one on the bypass already.made with 550 cord.
The sand man has that dimple to use as a lever point in gm auto locks. The sand man can be very versatile but the gm locks are a pain without that lever point.
Little bump or nudge is a pivot point. Changes the lift angle without making the whole pick wider.
My belief is that the notch on the shaft of the sandman is to help the user measure how deep they are in the key way
I use the logo loop thing to tie pull on the mini slim jim tool, it's easier on your fingers.
All nice kit's but the zipper dangly handle thingy is the best out of the lot, great for older people too. Lol.😁✌😎
I thought so....😉
You say "expansion pack" and all i can think of is DLC :))
Not sure if this is the case in the US, but here in Australia, most lockable doors open inwards, so the doorjamb would block any bypass tool.
when I got back into picking with my current qprk in Law Enforcement. I picked upbthe Mace kit with both expansions and I freaking love it. I carry it in an ITS SPIE pouch with the Southern specialties jack knife in th front elastic. I have an extremely capable kit in my pocket every day now my jack knife has slimline picks
Wouldn’t the string and fob be to loop thru the end of the by pass tool for added leverage when pulling it out?
Yes. You are correct. If you just order the MINI JIM, it comes with some paracord on the end.
I thought it might be a programmable RFID tag
If you are going ninja-level stealth, you may not have pockets big enough to hold the kit. Maybe it also has a loop, and the logo dot can go through a button hole to hang it inside you outfit. A little nutty, perhaps, but maybe a bit creative too.
I agree. I'm pretty sure it's included to be used on the Jim tool. But Bill IS correct that it is a zipper pull. It's the same as the one that is part of their small zippered case.
That was my thought...
That is NOT the strike plate. That is a square cornered face plate for the latch....
Michael Galligano Jr. yeah I kinda tilted my head on that one. Must not install much.
'this is the bolt for the deadbolt' no, it's a 6 way latch for a knob...
Jeff Moss or lever! 6 way??
that's what Kwikset calls it. 6WAL is the part.
www.doorlocksdirect.com/kwikset-knob-lever-latch-options.html
I never noticed about the strike plate on the Kwikset but I have a older house with square holes in the strike plates that hold the little slider down.
I think that the extra bump on the same man is so in a padlock you won't get stuck in the springs just past the end of the core.
Serations are called jimping same on a pocket knife also little nobble is for visual reference to how far in and out you are from lock face to help know what pin your on.
thanks for doing these reviews. i'm really new to picking and the cheap picks (and tensioners) i ordered aren't quite cutting it. now i have some direction as far as what to pick up to replace them.
There is not enough bleach for my eyes to get that close-up out of my head.
I don't know what you are talking about.. whoa!
On the Sandman, the little nubby serves to let you know when the tip of the pick is on the back pin. You can sort of use it as a depth stop. I'm not sure that it'd be terribly useful for an old pro but it is pretty helpful for us newbs.
Frankly I didn't really like the Sandman much (got one in my Vorax) until I tried it on a wafer lock...yeah, I'm sold now.
I wish I'd bought the Dark Shift instead of the Tuxedo but the Dark Shift isn't listed on the Sparrows website with the other pick sets. Over a year later, it's still hidden in the New Stuff corner of their website. List all of the pick kits on the same page, Sparrows
The quick strike is the exact pick design I made myself when I first started picking and is my go to pick for almost every lock you encounter in Canada I love it I am surprised that's new I just randomly made it from a wide bobby pin or street sweeper bristle now I use better metal but same design I use a fairly fat round chainsaw file and make em by hand pick sets don't even compare to hand made bespoke for self picks
You're putting that plate on the wrong side. It attaches on the *door*, not the jamb. It's just a decorative cover to hide the mounting ears for the bolt. It's a separate piece because there's an option of using one with square corners for a installation with a chiseled recess or with round corners for when the recess is cut with a router.
The strike plate that goes on the jamb has a bent overhanging flange to protect the jamb from the end of the bolt and to guide it over the corner.
Am I the only one who noticed that Bill did not get the two wafer lock picks set in the expansion pack, but instead got two copies of the same pick (only got 4 profiles, not the 8)? 4:59
I just received my expansion kit and the profile on the second one is completely different than the other.
Actually that zipper pull is right. Since this kit is made to be used with gloves grabbing a zipper can be a pain.
_that extra grip is called "jimping" in the knife world_
Bill, you keep talking about "down there", but I never expected you to show us 'head on' on camera! I mean, I know it was for review if the new Sparrows tool, but still...😮😜
The Zipper Pick, for On The Fly picking... That Multipick set sure was sweet. I'm definitely going to get in on that one. 👍
That was an entry latch for a kwikset knob or lever, not for a deadbolt. That also was not a strike plate that was a face plate for the latch with squared edges vs rounded edges
Some of these smaller kits like keychain type, cannot help but wonder ppl with bad intensions using them. Maybe not at houses but for cars like that ford one or whatever they can think off. Granted they can do that with large set aswell, as with everything, but i would think the smaller items they can hide better? Just a thought, as with everything made with good intensions there are people that want to misuse it i guess. Sorry for the rant! Btw love your videos!
Really nice sets. That pick gun would be great to have, and learn.
11:47 It looks like it could have one of their universal handcuff keys inside.
push forward and your knob pops out - i wont forget that haha
The tip of the Sparrows "Sandman" is way too huge to fit in the keyway of any lock I've tried so far. I've added a Dangerfield Praxis snake rake to my Dark Shift kit, sorted!
Call it brown-nosing if you want, but thank you for setting up these giveaways. I've been trying to sell off some of my prized and rare plants to purchase stuff like this, but some are too difficult to part with.
Bill, @ 7:28, that is not the strike plate for the frame. That piece is for the latch so you can have a square or round faceplate on your latch. Otherwise, good video.
That Slim jim will not work on any room in my home, or outside door. I love the concept, but the door "Stop" so to speak is in the way, either side. without taking it out... it just does not work for me. Correction... if you want to slip past "Under: the molding, it might work fin, depending on the molding on the other side of the door...
Have you moved review Saturday to Wednesdays? Nice stuff Mr Bill. 👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘🖖🍻🖖
8:04 - Then what is the purpose of the notch in the striker plate if it's apparently never used (or not SUPPOSED to be used)?
19:56 - Anal "attentiveness" lol, Bill! I think "retention" was what you were looking for...unless it was a Freudian slip. ;) Another great video, Bill! Thumbs up!
Assuming the "one lockset model house-wide" it would allow selective upfit of some doors to anti-bypass, leaving the rest as legacy style.
I think a universal 2 in 1 pick would be incredible to see
HAHAHA VERY FUNNY ABOUT THE ZIPPER PULLER ,Sparrows are way ahead of most in there design ,yet priced addordingly because of quality,i am jealous of not having mant of there tools,so far i am hobbying with whatever tools are cheeper,all the best MAL in BC
What a great stocking stuffer, I'm going to give the zipper pull to my wife to use, hopefully. LoL
Wow what a give away! I agree with Multipick tensioner, they are far better than some of the others. Happy Thanksgiving Bill.
Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving Bill! I'm thankful for all the skills you have taught me.
Of course I place an order last night and you give out discount codes this morning ;)
Too bad there's no Sparrows codes. :/
earthboundmisfit79 Southord is actually giving 30% off. I used it today. Use code SOHOLIDAY18
Sounds and looks like "The Ultimate" Xmas list.... Please Santa.... great video as always.
23:54 that's not how probability works Bill! 🙂
My lips were getting ahead of my brain! Sorry about that... Back to school.
Awesome giveaways! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. I must not be getting Sparrows newsletters. The first two Mace kits work very well for me. Will have to check out #3. Thanks!
Anything from Friday's or Saturday's give-a-way will be a BIG win for whoever the lucky winners are. I'm still hoping.
15:16 thats a handcuff shim.
Great video bill, I hope the new lock I send give you a better challenge than the last one
please do a demonstration of the quick strike rake. you said you would do one in the video
So THAT'S what those little dongle like things are for! LOL great video as always!
I'd second the comments on the Multipick TOK wrenches. Seriously good bit of kit.
WOW. Just amazing!! I cant wait for friday to jump on these amazing deals!! Thanks for the discount codes!!
You forgot to demonstrate the quick strike. I was wondering how to use one
Rolling on the Floor Laughing on the Zipper Pull! You made my day!
Is that little nub on the sandman to fit against your finger & help control the raking? It seems to fit exactly to your finger in this video.
Quick strike? I know a bat'leth when I see one!
Just send it all my way lol...love learning from your videos
Great Video. Very Informative and some great products reviewed. My Christmas list just got a little longer!
Can you show the quick strike pick in action?
Great stuff! And a lot great sales.
Gonna have to look around and see what’s out there.
Fantastic set of giveaways there Bill, all fingers and various other body parts firmly crossed... :-)
my nephew's would be taking a lot of those picks for swords 😊
How do you claim prizes won when you didn't get an email but lock lab show you won?
You will receive a notification email when you win. In your case, your name is similar to the winner, but his LAST name was Neal. I notified him, received confirmation, and shipped his kit on 11/13/18 as shown on the "You WON!" page of the website. Sorry.
So very Cool. Why has it taken me so long to find this?
Does anyone have an hypothesis of what the nudge could be in the sandman pick?
Orientation indicator for the hook on the end ?
Looks tot me like Both wafer picks are identical. Otherwise nice addition..
Yeah they are, but if you look on Sparrows site they clearly aren't supposed to be. Love it when shit like that happens.
Yes I noticed the same thing I have that expansion pack I got the 2 different ones not sure why he has 2 of the same.
Finally notifications are working! Love Sparrows stuff
I just wanted to say thank you! Your videos inspired me to PICK up a new hobby!
What a Great giveaway, thank you Bill. You have the best giveaways ever.
Awesome! I'm so tired of my friends fumbling for my zipper... #dontneednostinknkey
Just started learning and very glad I found you. Thank you for all the information!
The shim is just a handcuff shim
