Here's a link to this set:

Set includes:
The Tradecraft Pick Case
A Short Hook (.025")
A Medium Hook (.025")
A Quad Wave Rake (.025")
A Quint Wave Rake (.025")
Our three Precision 2 in 1 Turning Tools, which are labeled so you can quickly ascertain the thickness of the tool.
The turning tools are double sided for top and bottom of the keyway tensioning.
I love my CI Genesis. Very nice quality and great looking picks. They also use very good metal as well.
Yep, I have to agree. They're nice picks 👍🏻
Nice review. This really is a quality well priced beginner set. I love that they etched your logo on the handle.
Me too! 😍 Aside from that, it is a solid beginner set imho 😎👍🏻
Nice review and a good honest look at these picks from Covert Instruments.
Cheers Roy, it's a very nice pick set 😎👍🏻
Fantastic review and demo as always. Thanks for sharing mate and have a great weekend.
Cheers Gazz 🤘🏻😎
Definitely a nice set. I also bought the echelon set as well.
The tension tools in this set is my favorite. I had to go back and buy more.
They are good tensioners, especially for a starter set 👍🏻
@@Dmaclocksport yes. I started with only wiper style.
When I got my hands on these (as well as some TOK) I was instantly picking locks I was finding more difficult at the time.
I’ve been watching some of your older picking videos.. you are an animal.
Thanks for posting.
Thank you for the lesson, bruv!
😁👍🏻
I've just bought the eshelon and should get it in about 10 days. Looking forward to trying it out
To be honest, that set is a solid choice. I have that set too and a review is incoming 😎👍🏻
@@Dmaclocksport oh nice man, I was going to go for the covert companion but after speaking to Robert in DM he talked me out of it and told me to go for the eshelon at half the price doing ci out of money so fair play to them for that
@@AJlocksandlocks good choice mate. The covert companion is a good bypass tool but not a great picking tool
Nice review! I love this set! Ive picked my way up into purple belt locks with this set so far! I do prefer the ergo turners from ci for tok though. Nerve problems in my hands make using the z bar for tok in hand difficult. But i love them for bok!
Ah cool. Nice going 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Excellent review as ever. Great price point. I might consider using in place of a wallet 🤔 👍
Cheers mate. Yeah, not a bad Idea 😁👍🏻
Probably shouldn't do that if you use credit or debit cards. There are magnets in the case that could interfere with your card.
Unless you put on some kind of pouch that stop the magnets from reaching the card, I'm not sure you will have enough luck there bud.
Sweet review D 😎 as beginner's kits go that Anit a bad place to start 😁 personally I'd recommend the southord c801 over that kit 😁 but great review mate I wondered what they were like
Cheers Rob. I've not tried Southord myself, although I hear many folks like them 😎👍🏻
WHY didn't they make the opposite side a few mm deeper so you can fit additional picks in as opposed to just a card/shim?!?
Thanks for the review, I have yet to try any CI picks yet myself apart from the Covert Companion (which I had to use today at work as it happens 😀). I'm guessing they're en par with Multipick regarding quality etc...?
I put all my bok and tok turners on that side. Fit snug, magnet helps keep them from falling out. All picks, rakes, and a Bogota Set for the front.
@@SeeStuDo That makes sense 😀 💜
I'd say they are good quality picks and up there with the best of them. For a starter kit, it's perfect.
He wasn't criticizing the picks he was critiquing the pouch.
Watched the video. Having some decent TOK and BOK seems OK for 2 hooks and 2 Christina Palmer rakes, for a beginner set
It's a well balanced set for a beginner imho 👍🏻
Please where exactly get those opener
Its urgent
The link is in the description as always
Cool. The items included make me think of the Sparrows Spirit set. Would you say that CI picks are stronger than Sparrows? I have the Spirit set and I find them a little flimsy at times. Cheers for the review man. :)
This set is much better quality than sparrows tools. Nothing is indestructible but these are strong.
@@Downfal1 Cool. A supplementary question. The monkey's paw - cheating or not? ;)
@@Feenix102 I love the monkey paw (esp' for 1100s) not cheating at all
@@Dmaclocksport I love it too. :) Cheers, man.
@@Feenix102 not cheating at all. A lot of people really like the monkey paw. It can be very helpful getting your pick centered on the pins.
