Smooth rake
Sparrows Octo Rake, a gentle pattern that opens locks
The Octo is one of the most effective variations on the B-rake. Its gentler pattern feels smooth in the lock and is less likely to seize the pins than sharper rakes, so a simple rocking and raking technique often opens the lock almost on its own.

Why buy this
Buy this when sharper rakes seize the pins
Aggressive rakes can bind pins and stall, especially for newer pickers. The Octo’s gentle pattern moves pins smoothly, which makes it forgiving to learn on and reliable in everyday raking.
