Odin was like that too, turned out the only way he was comfortable with being picked up was if you held him in exactly the right positon with total support, if one toe was off my hand he used to freak lol. Eventually after figuring out the right position he wanted(with his head facing my wrist and his back feet on my palm, and his tail had to be between my fingers or he didn't like it, he was very picky lol) it was easy from there, now he does fine with pretty much anyway he's picked up, but i usually still let him just climb onto my hand first.
