13 song’s tool

It is a funny company name, 13 song’s tool.

But these Korean people know what they are doing. Their website is
simple and basic, and I only recognized the quality of their tools
when I met them a couple of weeks ago in Las Vegas.

They developed some nice and elegant picktools for the most modern
‘laser track’ car locks. The tool on the images is for opening Opel locks.

I like their design of the hollow car key with the drilled holes. This
will prevent you from from slipping between the levers while picking.

All I need now is some Opel locks to start practising …

    André: Yes, I bought one. Unfortunately the Mercedes and BMW sold out
    at ALOA. As a collector of lock opening tools I am thinking of
    ordering them anyway…

    What type of Opel lock do you have (access to)?

    Hi! I have one Opel lock from a Opel Vectra A, this one: http://www.gallery.matuschek.org/index.php?album=Lockpick%2F&pic=Opel+T%FCre.jpg
    An my car is a Opel Vectra B, which has the same or a similar lock. Are you in Cologne (Köln Kalk) early in september? There we could try your tool.

    André: Yes, I will be in Cologne and bring the tool of course.
    Looking forward to finally pick a lock with it. See you there!

    Barry: I just returned from the junkyard. It took me two hours to screw off some car-locks: One Opel Astra, one Opel Vectra, one Opel Corsa, one mercedes E180, one BMW and two Ford. I’ll bring them to cologne!
