  1. I love all the slight variations of Jacknife types and little nuances that's on offer. This one does look pretty cool I must say and it is nice to see 8 variations of picks. Agreed an extra BOK tension wrench would have really set this little kit off. I think the price is very reasonable too to be honest.
    Great review as always Lock Noob 🙂👍

  2. I like the pick profiles and also the aluminium body, but not the screw, which looks like it's super annoying. The fork-shaped side of the turning tool, is it useful for some kind of locks or us this just to keep it in place?

  3. Thanks for the review! As I suspected they did not "solve" the thumbscrew issue. I have one of the other ones in the wallet and, as you said, you don't get it out often but when you do the screw is always lost in the wallet somewhere. Is there something that holds it in? A rubber ring or something else? From what I can remeber only the Pocket Pick (by Martin Newton) comes with two tension tools and IIRC later versions of the SWIC (or maybe the earlier versions?). Also the SWIC features some fancy cool locking mechanism without the screw, maybe you can compare the three options.

  4. I like it.
    I guess I sorta collect EDC picks, pens and jackknives particularly, but not intentionally, I just keep buying new ones for some new feature I like.They all have their good points and shortcomings, and I've modified (customized) most of mine to my own personal taste.
    I agree with your assessment of snake rakes, one of my favorite rake profiles is a snake that is (bent? Offset? DeForest?) So the tip is like a small bump, buy in a pinch can be used as a shallow hook. I also often rake with it upside-down letting it act like a shallow double peak.
    One thing almost every EDC set share is a lack of turning tools, but I have one jackknife (I can never remember the name or who sells them) that has SIX different wipers, and 2 double ended pry bars of different thicknesses, for a total of TEN different tension options, as well as 12 pick/rake profiles.
    I will buy this set! But not until the price drops a bit to be on par with other jackknives.

  5. Out of the jackknifes you own & reviewed on your Channel what is the best to worst in your opinion
    Not including the ones direct from China even tho this looks to be made from there ?
    Thanks Noob

  6. They could have easily done away with the thumb screw and had a lever which would be much more flush with the body. Additionally once loosened the lever could come away to be another tension tool.

  7. Nice – Thanks for reviewing. My question is, if you weren't given one, would you have bought one for your EDC? Also, now you do have it, will you actually personally carry it around as your EDC? Cheers!

  8. The city rake and snake rake could use some work. The snake looks like a hollow half ball with a tail ..any how,
    Not saying they wouldn't open a lock but I think they could be done better

    Do you know if any picks from other manufacturers would fit it.

    Great video as always 👍

  9. It looks quite nice… except for the huge, curved DANGERFIELD written on the side. Why would they think we want that? It can probably be removed, but the name would have been much better if written less prominently in smaller print.

  10. So 7 and a half ish cm then? We don't need inches – it's only a tiny minority that uses inches so let them work it out. But it's a nice looking little tool. The amount of hooks are perfect for these types of tools (it's more than usual).

  11. Thanks for sharing.
    You have reviewed quiet some jackknife/edc picking tools so far.
    I'd love to see a kind of wrap up video showing the different jackknife pick sets available and some of your "homemade".
    I guess this would be helpful if someone really is considering buying one.

    Looking at this particular design. I like the length if the picks but I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the locking mechanism.
    I guess, with some high level of engineering skills one could incorporate one or two BOK tensioners in that set, too.

  12. Great review, as always. Just wondering, if you had a stop search (UK), would it be classed as a bladed article? Oh well, back to trying to pick my Master Lock M1 and Yale Y114B locks. Sprung cores, tried light, medium, heavy tension…no luck. Great fun though, even if a bit frustrating!

  13. I am waiting for mine to arrive. What drew me to it is the posiction and size of the screw. I have struggled a lot with the screws on other jacknife sets. Imbedded as they are, they can pinch. I also cannot tighten them enough with my fingers alone. I have had to use a small needle nose pliers, every time. Looking forward to trying it out.
