	~~A '''lockpick''' (or '''pick''', '''pick lock''') is a tool used in [[lockpicking]] to manipulate components to their proper positions. The [[Lock~~#~~Lock_Designs\|type of lock]] being picked and the preferences of the lockpicker will determine which type and style of lockpick used. In most cases, a~~ [[~~Tension\|tension tool]] is used with the pick to successfully pick the lock. Picks that are specifically designed for [[Raking\|rake picking]] techniques as known as rakes.~~

	The possession of lockpicks is [[Legal Issues\|considered illegal]] in some parts of the world. Lockpicks are categorized as "burglary tools" in many places, but most laws do not consider them such until they are used with the intent to commit a crime.

	~~== Types of Picks ==~~

	The type and design of lockpicking tools varies greatly. Different [[Lock#Lock_designs\|lock designs]] require different types of picks and [[Tension\|tension tools]] to manipulate the internal components.

	~~; [[Pin-tumbler]] picks~~

	Pin-tumbler picks are typically flat, thin pieces of metal. The tip of the pick comes in various shapes designed to facilitate movement and feedback in the lock. Common handle materials are metal, heat shrink tubing, plastic, rubber, and wood.
