Blackfinger's Locks is a shop in Icemule Trace that sells locksmith supplies. It is located within Berrytoe's General Store, just south of the bank on Trader's Way. As with other town locksmiths, box picking services are available.

The proprietor is the merchant Blackfinger.
[Blackfinger's Locks] Room: 4043853, RNUM: 2425
The walls of this small room are lined with small, gold-framed cases holding some of Blackfinger's finer wares. Ranging from diamond-encrusted lockpicks to the simplest pick, the cases glow in the warm candlelight. A low oak workstand lines one wall of the room, on which Blackfinger cheerfully works his talents. You also see a scarred and scratched oak barrel, a sturdy steel door, the merchant Blackfinger, a polished wooden counter with a brass bell on it and a small sign.
