Sandmann Grafik Lockpick - Sparrows

Sandmann Grafic Lockpick - Sparrows

Laser Engraved SANDMAN Pick

Last year at a trade show we were talking with a few guys who used to attend Soldier of fortune Conventions at the Sahara in Las Vegas. The story went that in the 80's a guy would follow these conventions and sell lock picks out of a small booth. These sets were mostly HPC but he also had some home brew picks made by a different guy. Of the hand made picks what these guys really liked was one called the 'Sandman'.

So, out of interest we sent off a few emails to see what we could dig up.
It took a while but we slowly got a few details and then learned that the guy making the picks was a DJ in the 80's who used the handle of "DrDave"

Well we found DrDave, turns out he still lives in Vegas and has been picking since the 60's. Best part - he sent us a Sandman and what was really nice is that it is a different pick than anything else in the lineup. A few careful measurements, a little bit of Laser Art and here you have it. A truly New Pick.

The Sandman is a dual sided Rake and a Single Pin Pick for attacking radicle biting - direct from Vegas

The lock pick is manufactured by Sparrows out of American Made 301 Cold Max steel.
