Dangerfield PRAXIS Dual-Gauge Complete Lock Pick Set
Description
Description
The biggest thing to happen in lock picking since lock picking began.
Dual-gauge picks. Top-and-bottom keyway tension. 301 fault-free stainless steel. Built on the input of working locksmiths, competition pickers, and government agencies. Skills in your hands, not in your tools.
Bosnian Bill reviews the Praxis
An independent walk-through of the Praxis from one of the most respected voices in locksport. Worth watching before you decide.
Who Carries the Praxis
Working Locksmiths
Daily-driver kit. Both gauges in every profile so you can adjust on the fly between tight European keyways and looser American pins. Holds an edge job after job.
Competition & Sport Pickers
Designed with input from world champions and competition winners. The dual-gauge system gives you tools to handle anything the bench throws at you, from security pins to spool stacks.
First Responders & EDC Pros
Tactical EDC and on-call professionals. Compact, reliable, and ready to go. Used by three-letter agencies and first responders who need tools that don't fail under pressure.
Why the Praxis Stands Out
Every feature was decided by working pickers, not marketers
The Difference You Feel Through the Pin
Single-thickness picks force compromises. Too thick for European keyways. Too thin to deliver kinetic feedback through American security pins. The Praxis solves it by giving you both gauges of every profile: 0.023" for full feedback on standard pins, 0.015" for the tightest keyways.
Same pick design. Two thicknesses. Marked on each pick so you grab the right one without thinking. Wider lock coverage than any single-gauge set can offer.
Built From the Bench, Not From Marketing
We consulted world champions, competition prize winners, government agencies, and working locksmiths. We asked one question: what would the perfect lock pick set actually look like?
We took their feedback, refined the prototypes, and went back and forth until every detail was sorted. The result is jam-packed with the kind of design choices you only make after picking thousands of locks across professional environments. This isn't a beginner set scaled up. It's a pro set built from the bench.

Before You Buy
What does "dual-gauge" actually mean and why does it matter?
Every pick profile in the Praxis comes in two thicknesses: 0.023" and 0.015". The 0.023" delivers strong kinetic feedback through standard pins; the 0.015" slips into tight European keyways where thicker picks bind. Same pick design, both gauges, marked clearly so you grab the right one without thinking. Single-gauge sets force a compromise. The Praxis doesn't.
Is this set for beginners?
"Pro" describes the build quality, not the audience. The Praxis is professional-grade, but the bundles with practice locks and our Visual Guide are designed exactly for serious beginners who want to learn on the same tools they'll use for the next twenty years. The Repinnable + Guide bundle is the most popular learning path.
How does it compare to the Multipick ELITE range?
Both are premium pro sets. Multipick ELITE has chunkier metal handles and more total pieces in the larger sets. The Praxis is lighter, dual-gauge across every profile, and has a strong following with competition pickers and EDC professionals. Many serious pickers own both. Different design philosophies, both excellent.
Will the Praxis hold up after years of use?
Yes. The 301 fault-free stainless is hardened to hold its tip job after job. Working locksmiths who bought their Praxis when it first launched are still using the same set today. With the Lambskin Pick Tip Protect case for EDC carry, the tips stay precision-sharp even in your pocket.
Is lock picking legal?
In the majority of US states, yes. Owning lock pick tools is legal for locksport hobbyists, locksmiths, security professionals, first responders, and educators. A handful of states (Tennessee, Ohio, Virginia, Nevada, Mississippi) require demonstrable lawful intent. We ship from our Florida warehouse to thousands of customers monthly. Always pick locks you own or have explicit permission to pick.
Another Take on the Praxis
Pair It With the Beginners Visual Guide
Even the best picks come with a learning curve. The Beginners Visual Guide is a 170-page color-illustrated reference book that walks through every technique your Praxis can deliver. Pin tumblers, security pins, spool stacks, dimples, tubulars, and rake patterns. Each explained with the kind of step-by-step illustrations that turn theory into muscle memory.
It's the single most-recommended learning resource we sell. Buyers who pair the Praxis with the Visual Guide compress months of trial-and-error into hours of focused practice. The two Praxis bundles that already include it (Repinnable + Guide at $129.99, Cutaway + Guide at $149.99) are the fastest-learning path the Praxis can take.
If you're buying a standalone Praxis configuration without the included guide, add the book separately:
Pick Better. Carry Better.
The most-popular pro pick set, designed with the people who actually use it.
