This lockpick is made of 0.025″ Government Steel and then pressed into a black plastic handle barrel. This is the thickest series of lock picks from Peterson.
Although 0.025″ is thicker, than the 0.015″ and 0.018″ picks from Peterson, they do have a “Euro” neck reduction. This neck reduction is made to form more room for movement in hard-to-reach keyholes.
These picks are very useful for locks with narrow keyholes that require more force than the 0.015″ and 0.018″ picks can provide.

Peterson manufactured its picks using the acid machining method for many years before starting to use laser cutting/marking to produce its picks in late 2019. The picks they had the least of were, of course, cut first. Laser cutting took several months. After their simultaneous tumbling and polishing work was completed, the lead time for the casting process and production was still several months, so they did not start the completed picks until March 2020. When the completed laser picks were received from the mold, Peterson’s existing CLASSIC pick inventories were replaced with the newer laser picks.

The result was a step-by-step addition of activity: individual picks were replaced immediately as they came in, and reluctantly, starting in March 2020, picksets were built (to keep products available on the shelf to meet demand) with an ever-increasing percentage of the newer laser picks. By the end of August 2020, Peterson had received all of their laser steel picks, so the entire stock of the picksets at that time was gone through and rebuilt with only laser picks.

While Peterson believes that their laser picks are better than their CLASSIC picks, they also note that CLASSIC picks are fully capable of picking. The only problem with CLASSIC picks can be observed if you bend the picks sideways at the handle. For example, the Peterson Reach is marked PR. The top and middle of the characters form 2 dashes (like the perforations at the top of a check in your checkbook). Normal lockpicking will not break these picks – but bending them sideways with the picks can cause them to break. But why would you do that?

In order to offer you a great bargain on Peterson picks that (based on the information above), you may have actually bought and enjoyed in the past, we have ordered an assortment of the Peterson CLASSIC Picks that they have removed from their stock and no longer offer for sale in stores.
