Great video. I got my Lishi key cutter today and first thing I noticed- - No Instructions, no nothing. This was really helpful. Also love the Schlage depth chart. Another thumbs up. Thanks!

It is fun to see what you come up with every week. I wondered what those Lishi cutters were like. Very cool to see in action. Impressioning is a whole skill set on its own. Learning and watching an expert at that skill, quickly helps you understand how to do it and make it work. I was taught by a boss who didn’t explain it very well and it was hard to do. I later met someone who excelled at it and my ability jumped remarkably. Good luck Fish! ✌🏻👏🏻

You my friend are an upcoming rock star in the world of lock picking! Always interesting videos with a nice twist to its content.

Well presented and timely. I notice more pickers are experimenting with the Lishi decoders lately so this should draw a lot of interest.

Great work!!!!! Fun to end up with a working key!!!!! Stay safe my friend 🐾🐈🐈‍⬛🐾😷🍻👏👏👏👏👏

Another wonderful Friday episode, Fish. Interesting to see the process played out and hear your thoughts behind each step. It's fun watching you gather and put to use the information you're learning.

Good, clear descriptions and well explained, easy to follow, well-paced presentation.

Another great video Fish. It's amazing what you can do with the RIGHT tools. Thanks for showing this.

Another great video very good job on the key decoding lots to learn thanks

Very good video, U amazed with what u did put metric and US measurements, so many just Say r show metric not all of us r metric people, me I don’t care for metric measurements. Thanks

Great video. Just got the lishi clipper myself. Duplicated a 6pin schlage with the clamping method first try. Nice piece of kit. Now I just need some of those space/depth keys.

I've always wondered how those hand cutters work! Nicely done sir 👌🏼

Great stuff- a subject I'm very interested in! Being only several months into the hobby- I've done the typical newbie thing of grabbing any locks I could with or without keys. I don't have any Lishi picks, but have everything else including hundreds of key blanks and can't wait to have a go- once work allows. Yes, I was again watching this whilst balancing on a ladder, painting a room!😁 Great video, thanks again- take care mate.👍

Very good video Fish! I’ve cut a key by hand with just a couple of files. It amazed me how much of a difference a couple strokes of a file can make. I was keying up an Abus lock I had bought to practice on. I used some pins I got from the locksmith I purchased the lock from as well as few blank keys. It was a fun project. But i did discover after a couple excessive key cuts that it’s best to go slow and check often.

Thanks for your sharing knowledge!

Great video, thanks! I used this key cutter for a challenge lock I've just completed, I could have used this video as I had to do a lot of corrective filing due to inaccurate cutting with the tool! I've a second challenge lock started, I'll use this method when constructing the key! 👍

Great video fish 👍👍👍

Excellent demonstration. New sub.

Judging from the color of the handle's coating I'm guessing it's a pair of GENUINE lishi clipper rather than the ORIGINAL, which somehow works slightly offset than it's supposed to do. From my (limitted) experience, Lishi clippers work better on "smaller" keys such as cam locks, and for normal residential locks, a more precise key machine, be it a hand-held model (pak-a-punch style) or a power-driven one, is always preferred. That said, this is real quality content as always. Thanks for the vid.

It’s funny, I JUST ordered one of these clippers a few days ago. Although I have a key cutting machine, it’s an automated motion copying machine, and using depth and space keys on it can be a challenge. I think you sorted out that disassembling the lock can make key making/finishing very easy, if that’s the only goal and you don’t have some of the extra information or tools handy. I’ve done that for a few locks, for which I never had the key in the first place and with uncommon enough blanks that depth and space keys would not be worth buying. I look forward to seeing how you like impressioning. I’ve enjoyed it, but it takes me more like 20-45 minutes (I’m slow at it). And that’s when I don’t break a key or go too deep on a cut and have to start over. A lesson I learned the hard way, is that some cheap locks will jam up when you try to impression them. I had that experience with several “GMS” cylinders, and they jammed hard enough that the original key would no longer work. I’ve had other cheap cylinders (Kenaurd, for example) that worked fine, though. Just keep that in mind, to avoid some potential frustration! Keep up the great work, and thanks for another fun video!

IMPRESSION THE LOCK!!!

LEGEND!

You don't need the Lishi Decoder to do this job. By using a black marker you should be able to use the depth & space keys to impression the lock. Then use keys and the dial caliper to fit the key.

You got all the good tools poor poor picture here I enjoy your Technique though

I only wish the lishi tool would work with euro keys. Had been fun being able to make keys for euro cylinders at home😊

nice

The digital caliper is overkill. Just use a flat key decoder gauge to determine whether the depths of the individual cuts are on point with the readings from the Lishi decoder.

Hi where can i buy the key reader

Algorithm has now placed me on the watchlist

I would hazard a guess that the cutter was originally designed to cut the slave keys for the auto versions of the Lishi , although when I bought mine I was unaware there where slave keys, I bought mine with the intention of making bumpkeys

Very good.. doesn’t yours have the key depths on the cutter?

I'm wondering what the approximate overall cost of re-creating a key would be..? (Including the lishi lockpick tool)

Awesome video mate. It takes time to get the hang of cutting to code like that. I've kinda got pretty good at it now. And can duplicate a working key using the lishi cutter pretty fast. But it doesn't replace a good machine. Cheers DALP 👍🤘🖖🍻

Its a cut away. You could sight read the bitting.

Great video, thanks a lot! Is the Lishi Decoder also available for European cylinders like Abus etc.?

Where I can find original lishi tools to buy?

You are turning into a lishi cowboy just like jason from SE lock and key. Go see that video if you haven’t yet, to fine tune your lishi skills :)

More Fish!

Do lishis work on European locks? Eg. ASSA .

What lishi works with euro cylinder lock? Thanks

What's the tool's name on 7:27 and where can I buy it, please? Thanks!

Impressions locks is a skill that requires a lot of practice. It is much more complicated than looking for marks and filling them. You have to be able to determine what the marks mean and what marks to file. I’ve seen a few you tube vids where they do it very quickly but I can say from years of impressioning locks, BS! They already know how to file it before they make the video and no one explains what the difference is between the marks and when to file them. I have no respect for those people at all! The lishi requires very little skill and is an excellent way to decode a lock. Much faster

Sir com me and price Mey lock master and key palas paflas

Please can you do how to do a filing cabinet?

Ahh so thats what you wanted keys for 😈

Bisogna avere le dime di ogni modello.

3:23 ew it wasnt de-burred. T-T

I have only one issue with your channel! It is rather a heavy grievance I need to express. You want me to spend even more money on stuff. I do want a lishi tool though. A KW1 is where I’m going to start. I work in property management/real estate. Kwikset is the most common lock I run into.
