Notched pick
Sparrows Monkey Paw, a low-profile notched everyday pick
The Monkey Paw is a subtle, low-profile notched pick designed for a broad range of keyways. Despite the playful name it is a genuinely useful daily pick rather than a one-off novelty, giving you a little extra grip on pins when feedback feels uncertain.

Why buy this
Buy this when you want surer pin contact
A notched tip can hold a pin a touch more securely than a plain hook, which helps when feedback is faint. The Monkey Paw works as a regular pick across many keyways, so it earns a place in everyday rotation.

A little extra purchase on the pins.
Low profile

Use route
Use it as your go-to hook
Pick single pins with light tension as you would any hook, letting the notch help where feedback is faint. Start with a practice lock. You'll learn faster and can experiment more freely.
