Well you sold me. Ordered.
Current status: Eagerly Awaiting.
Sweet Jesus... I've been shopping for a decent dimple set for 2 months now, swapping out various kits in my shopping baskets on sites like banggood and dhgate, unable to make a decision... All of those kits sucked balls so my decision came down to trying to decide between the least shitty option. I'm aware that souber makes a fairly decent kit but they're like $60. They're also flat and not rounded. Same with Southord's.
So I figured if I was going to get a set, I'd get a cheap Chinese kit since I was going to have to heavily modify them anyways. I was going to finally pull the trigger this weekend, probably tonight. But then I stumble across this holy grail - my prayers are answered, this kit has everything I've been looking for with rounded shafts!
Quite a change of pace; normally my luck is such that I purchase the cheap Chinese kit first, then the very next day this gets released. I guess the bad luck gremlin that sits on my shoulder went to take a shit and got lost on the way back.
Edit: minor critique - don't much care for that plastic case. But I think anything else would have increased the price so I'm perfectly fine with it. I'm wondering if the Sparrow's ranger case could fit all those picks plus a couple tension wrenches. It seems to have some thickness to it and may accommodate the set's girth.
Thanks for the review, they look great and i cant wait to feel them crack their first lock. Did you do any finishing on your personal set?
Great video. I am wondering if the Sparrows dimple picks are ok for mul-t-locks or if the Souber Mul-t-lock picks (sold in Canada by lockpickcanada) would be better. I have purchased a number of dimple locks but I haven’t started trying to pick them yet, but I love the gear.
And I see that Sparrows is now shipping out of the US and prices on their site are now in US dollars. For those of us in Canada we are probably better off ordering from lockpickcanada website which appears to be the same as the Sparrows site anyway.
