(1407) Review: MORE Sparrows Gear!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 окт 2024
- Just two weeks ago Sparrows released a bunch of new gear, and now they've released some MORE, and I do a review of THREE of the items. This review is of the Scarab, Night Crawler and the new 0.012" SLIVER picks. Yes... there is STILL more to come in the next week or so - I just need to get some "training aids" to show it off.

I think we should start a kickstarter, to get Bill to ride to Canada on a bike. Who is with me?
GBatT - I Dunno... Bills had some pretty spectacular crashes on his bike...
Get PAID to ride my bike?!! I'm in! Especially if my objective is to get to the Sparrows warehouse. Rumor it, they secure their doors with a Kwikset...🙃
@@bosnianbill Oh.. I'm in.. Pick your way to Canadia. From bike to bike.. Legal of course. You would ask permission first. Attach a master-lock to every bike in turn.
edited.. misread your reply.
Not sure that they make a rocket powered bicycle that he could ride. Besides, don't you need a passport to get to Canada these days?
We’re going to miss you Bill! Thanks for all the years of sharing your knowledge.
I love sparrows picks. feel good work great and i can afford them. thank you Bill for turning me on to such a great company with awesome product right out the pack
I’ve helped a lot of people getting into there dial locks thanks to you and LPL and all your videos, tonight I’ve purchased my first pick set .. thanks guys.!!
LpL has some real skills .
Hey Bill, sometimes i'll use that cross hatching on those pry bars to remove sharp edges or burs from my picks after a lot of use. Idk if that's what it's there for, but it's nifty.
Was looking around for a small kit after doing some learning for a while now. I always watch your and LPL's vids. This kit was still around 2020 from UKlockpickers! Thanks alot for demoing the kit. Cheers
I finished my Sparrows Tuxedo picks with 150 grit sandpaper first, then I polish the edges with 800 grit emery cloth. It makes them very smooth.
They have come up again with some great items. Might need to order something for my own christmas stocking!
I remember Wizwazzle. Been playing with this hobby for about 13 years now.
Very interesting approach to an ergonomic handle. Can't wait to see what they think of next. Maybe next time they name their set after an invertebrate and have a jelly handle! Ha!
_Nice!_
I'm waiting on my Dark Shift set and Revolver to arrive from Sparrows, but I really want these to keep in my belt.
Might have to look into this to take on trips to family on the holidays so I can pick locks 🔒
I've found that a good tensioner is unbelievably important. A good top of the keyway tensioner has been a lifesaver.
Wow, they keep coming up with interesting stuff. Can't wait to see what is next from Sparrows.
I have to say im leary of the shortness of these but i know they put out superior products and i trust your judgement so am considering ordering a set. Thanks bb!
Great review my friend, The night crawler could use a deep hook also.
I was thinking that. I'm already using the comparable picks from Banggood (my starter set), and wish I had some flat bars or more hook diversity. I'd sooner get the Spirit or (more likely) Lawlock Valerian.
I call dibs on the Night Crawler giveaway!
Is that a new theme song at the end? Catchy...
Bill, thank you for all the wonderful videos. Recently started watching your tutorial vids, and love them. Thank you.
Sparrows always made impressive products! Thank you for your very informative video, Sir!
Just ordered the nightcrawler and a small set of Bogota picks from UKbumpkey. As one who carries a large assortment of edc, I needed a smaller set than my tuxedo. I tend to be a faithful customer to good companies. Olight and Sparrows seem to get lots of my dough.
I like how he sowed how to position tensioner hand on door frame.
I just got a night crawler and am very pleased with it, the spines on the handles may be a bit uncomfortable for long sessions
but they work really well. for some reason the short hook will zip a masterlock faster than any other short hook I have
and the other picks work as well.
Can't wait to try them out .... I love sparrows products
Hey bill.
If you remember I designed the Franken pick and sent you one.
I also sent it to Sparrows... it's now the Scarab.
Thanks for the good review
Love the videos Bill. I randomly discovered your channel about 3 weeks ago. I clicked on a video just for the hell of it. Next thing I knew I was subscribed and have watch too many of your videos to count. I'm definitely going to have to give this lock sport thing a try. It looks like so much fun.
Wow, Nice review. I didn't even know they came out with new stuff yet.
Nightcrawler looks great, I love the idea of short picks.
I really love the Sparrows design philosophy and that they take ergonomics serious- good for my old arthritic fingers.
Fantastic reviews Bill. So we'll forgive the wrench flying across the table. 😂
.012 picks... Now that's really thin.
Thanks for another great vid Bill. Can't wait to get my hands on some of those. 012 picks
Very cool set of picks n tools!!! Nice skinny little things..
Thank you for another great video Bill.
Leave it to Sparrows once again, to come to the table with some neat, new stuff to make me open my wallet! Excellent review of the new products, and very generous giveaway! Bill, you are sort of like the Santa Claus of locksport with you product giveaways! Thanks as always!
Good thing is you can make that money back easy when you rake into your neighbors house when they are on holiday and steal there cash they have lying around.
Ha! Around here, that's a good way to wind up with a new hole in you, courtesy of said neighbor!
very interesting little set
Great work, Sparrows. Loving these.
Awesome content Bill, I only see one flaw with the Nightcrawler and the sliver kit, no DeForest diamonds. As always, love your videos thank you Bill!
I have to wonder if anyone has suggested to Sparrows that a couple of the spined Nightcrawler Rakes' handles could be fashioned as comb picks. I know it cuts into their Comb 45 sales, but it might be an idea to look into.
The handles on the Nightcrawler set aren't uncomfortable? I'm really tempted to buy a set but it seems like it would be a bit uncomfortable. (And yeah, I realize they're not meant too be used for hours on end. 😏
I am tempted to buy the night crawler just for the case for my edc tension wrenches I carry more tension wrenches then picks 😄
Don't feel bad about liking what you do, as long as you're honest about it
That's a great tool..love it..Great Giveaway, Good Job Bill. Keep up the good work. 😉
I've been eyeing these up and waiting for weeks for the release. I found the listings hidden in their product index page a little bit back, and i even asked them about them. of course they were tight lipped and didnt get back to me on that at first lol. i thought maybe they were discontinued stuff i missed, until i saw the kwikset hex key listing and a picture to go with the slivers on the listing in index with new price. that was a few days ago. since then, i've just been waiting for release to pull the trigger.
sadly the scarabs werent available to me. idk if they sold out or arent in stock yet, but ill grab em soon enough. im loving/hating all these releases sparrows sure knows to to separate me from my cash.
really excited about the slivers, but worried as well lol
still waiting for their christmas ornament to release. hoping scarabs are in by then so i can do it in one order; already made two large orders recently now. cant keep doing that lol
I do like Sparrows stuff. The Praxis kit from ukbumpkeys is my day to day go to kit but I keep a sparrows bomba royale handy too and I’m pretty happy with the quality. Just wish they’d ditched the knife and added a worm...
Nice set of picks
Hi Bill. In this video, you made use of a wooden deadbolt lock holder display, to test the scarab pick, which I also see in mall hardwares? Is this something you make yourself or something you can buy commercially? Does it have a specific product name? Thanks!
Wish I could help, but I found it on eBay several years ago.
@@bosnianbill ah, ok. noted sir. Many thanks for your quick reply. Stay safe! : )
I think the spine thing is suppose to represent an actual spine in your body.
nah its a centipede
Awesome video! I'm going to have to pick up one of those edc kits!
12:30 UV paint does NOT mean they glow in the dark. It refers to the printing process.
"Fan Boy"? Why not! With such quality and a price that won't break the bank. Sparrow's.
Love the videos and get some great help and advice from them. Great giveaways also.
Keep up the good work👏👏
Awesome, I like you are a fanboy of Sparrow stuff and I am not ashamed to say this lol. Those new products look interesting I only wish I had some extra $$ to pick up a set. Good job sir.
another great offering from sparrows
Really like the knurled tensioners, but not really interested in the short picks. It'd be cool if Sparrows came out with a tensioner set that included these.
Really nice sets there Bill.
My opinion isn’t worth much but I have to say I really like the Sparrows rakes.
timbober1
Your opinion is just as important as anyone else's
Repeat after me - I am special. I am important. I am loved. I am part of a community of lockpickers who value my opinion.
Keep going until you believe it. It’s probably all true and, even if it isn’t, the world will seem nicer if *you* do.
Adam West absolutely true!
How do you like that pec black ruler? I love their satin finish ones and I've been eyeing up the black ones.
Fan Boi Bill... Has a nice ring to it 😂🤣👍
ive been very happy with my sparrows dark shift. i might have to look into these
Awsome video. I really want to try these
You are having fun fan boy :D Good tools. I'd love to try then :)
Great review Bill but I am questioning the name of the micro kit considering nightcrawlers are normally longer than regular worms I personally would’ve called it the red worm kit sense red worms are normally shorter than regular worms
I dig the new kit, looks funky and the size is handy.👍🏽The 12 thou kit... I'd just destroy. Lol. Getting super fancy now with the Scarab set! Super cool.🍺😎
Great review bill, the scarabs are interesting, did that shlague deadbolt have security pins?
That's a nice set
Sparrows do have excellent stuff, I also like Southord kits as well. I tend to mix & match from both companies, as my needs require. As a Paramedic, we often get called to places where doors are locked and we need to get access without breaking down doors. Great video Bill and thanks for your "trainer" vids as well, a few of us learned good techniques from you.
For reasons unknown to me I have never susses fully raked opens lock. Single pin never denied... What am I missing Bosnian bill
Since the 3 hump Bogota and worms work so well why do they make 1 and 2 hump picks? Are they just filler?
Interesting picks
About time they come out with 0.012 picks. I can’t afford multipick so sparrows is my go to 😢😢
Awesome giveaway wow! Cheers Bill 🍻
I have been wanting a set of .012 for a long time now! I have a set of .015 but sometimes you need something a lil thinner
The easiest way to get that is to grind them down a little .Keep cooling it to maintain integrity .
@@jinyow5581 sparrows has a set now!
@@Westhelockpicker Cool
Sparrows is in Pennsylvania now! 2 hrs down the road from me! In the last few years we got Kahr arms literally up the road 20 minutes, now Sparrows moving to PA it’s nice! Now if our governor could stop taxing the ever living shit out of us it’d be great!
Whauzers, those scareb ping-pong bat things are ehm fast but weird!
Really liking those night crawlers. Hope I win but if not I will be really tempted to save up a little and go buy this set... Oh, and the scarab is beautiful as well as effective.
scarab looks like fun
The scarab raking didn't actuate the bolt (13:20) even though the key did (12:50).
I think the lock was opened but further rotation was necessary to activate the bolt.
Scarabs and Nightcrawler, velly intellesting!
Those are a really nice set would love to have some I guess if I don't win I can always order from sparrows
Nice review, will be looking into them. Hope I get my name picked for the give away! :-)
What about the new smart key hex tool
Coming up! I went to Home Depot to pick up a new smartlock but they were temporarily sold out. I head over to Lowes and get one, then make a vid of the Hex tool. It looks like fun.
It's funny how every time I have a little bit of spare cash Sparrow's comes out with something awesome.
Damn thats a nice giveaway! I found your channel cause I want to start with lockpicking.
love the scarab
The handle on the scarab is kind of huge. I must have it but I think I will have to reshape that handle. Aesthetics don't grab my attention in tools. Sometimes they are just in the way.
Nice 1 bill 👍
nice centipede picks
These new sets are really awesome looking!
Would love to win one, I hope my name gets drawn this time!
Awesome sets
Great video
Nice review as always ; -)
Does anyone keep a database on suggestions for certain kinds of locks? I've just started picking. I started, because I own three padlocks with no keys. Two of my padlocks were locked to a very heavy chain. They're all three Masters. The loose one, a No. 3, is the first one I tried, and I can pick that one, the No. 5, which was attached to the chain, no problem. But, I have a No. 220, that I've been working on now for about three hours, and, no luck so far. Any suggestions?
Funny you should mention wizwazzle. I was just watching some of his vids and, yeah he doesn't take false set as a prisoner.
Dang, I may need to start playing the lottery.
Has Sparrows put out a product in the last year or so you haven't liked? All the stuff you've shown lately has been pretty cool.
Nice bunch of tools, never had any I haven't made myself, hmmmm
hoping for an in depth review of the sparrows christmas ornament when it comes out :p
As always, fantastic give away bonanza
really nice video and giveaway, Bill!!!!!
One has to wonder if the scarab is meant more for speed pickers.
MrRokashans' Meanderings and Misadventures - I dunno. They’re a bit unwieldy for someone in a hurry. More for a badass locksmith looking to make a positive impression on a customer before they get the invoice...
I like them both!
