I'm really the wrong person to ask; this is something I play with on my desk while I'm thinking through a problem and I'm sure the picks I have would be considered trash by a real locksmith.

That said, the first set I had (which I loved) were things I made myself. After those got ruined by people coming into my office and squealing "LEMME TRY" which resulting in them bending them to the point of uselessness, I bought a set at a "spy" store in Phoenix; they seem to work just fine for my purposes.

Honestly, I wouldn't get too caught up in buying "nice" picks. They're incredibly simple tools and I doubt that you're going to notice any difference between a good set and a cheap set if you're doing what I'm doing.
