japanese picklock resoration,. worth it?

Post by R.H »

hi bill im thinkin of getting a Japanese picklock partially restored, the backspring is bent slightly, the blade is off center/loose opened,and the scales are kinda warped, is this something you could do ? I know a lot of people don't like work on Japanese switches but these picklocks seem built well. I think it deserves a restore.
