Hey Fedi! I have the opportunity to work with @deviantollam and Red Team Tools to have my own lockpick designs and kit on their site! ๐Ÿคฏ

If there was a modular pick kit, based on my EDC, with a suitably "Alice-like vibe", at a flexible price-point, would you be interested in it?

Here are my initial thoughts:

Alice's minimal EDC:
[ ] double-sided turning tools (S/M/L)
[ ] slim, teardrop-tipped short hook x2
[ ] sturdy gem-tipped medium hook x1
[ ] double-hump w-rake x1
[ ] tiny case

Alice's expanded EDC:
[ ] warded pick set
[ ] traveler's hook
[ ] jiggler set
[ ] common keys (like TSA007, CH751, FEO-K1)
[ ] common bypass tools (shims, bypass drivers)
[ ] prybar turning tools
[ ] larger case for expanded kit

Extras:
[ ] Deviant's "Practical Lockpicking" Book
[ ] a interchangeable core padlock (w/ easy core)
[ ] spare cores (intermediate x1, difficult x1)
[ ] KiK cylinder holder (A-clip)
[ ] blank stock for DIY tools

(everything listed above is stuff I use *constantly*, in roughly descending order)

For the picks (and some of the extras), I'd like to do skeletonized handles with laser cut designs that folx associate with me (bunny silhouettes, heart-shaped love locks, etc), because I figured other companies I won't name already have the tacticool crowd's tastes covered.

This is, of course, subject to change/tweaking as it develops, but Deviant and I are both excited to make it happen. And of course, of course, y'all know I wouldn't put my recommendation on anything that I didn't test myself and *thoroughly* approve of.
