lock pick set

Tumbler manipulation instruments

A lock pick set is a collection of specialized tools designed to open locks without the original key.

The set typically includes picks of various shapes for manipulating internal pins and tension wrenches to apply rotational pressure.

Locksmiths use them professionally; others may use them for sport or illicit purposes.

Possession laws vary by jurisdiction.
