I have absolutely no interest in taking up the hobby of lockpicking but I enjoy every second of every one of your videos. You're great

LPL is like that one friend who can just talk about his incredibly niche interests and still entertain the whole group

3:00 "I find myself using these more than almost anything in this whole package" I like to believe that includes his actual keys.

Riveting together the Tool emergency picks allowing for a better grip yet still keeping them compact was sheer genius.

In case anyone wanted an itemized list: 1) Diodrio leather pocket pouch 2) Fisher space pen 3) Cigarette package lighter 4) Olight flashlight 5) Key holder/organizer with bypass tools: - Bent music wire for slipping latches - Comb pick - Bypass knife - Decoding shim 6) Wafer jigglers (set, .025" thick) 7) 2x Bobby pins 8) Thin piece of plastic for slipping latches on in-ward opening doors 9) lockpicks (from Toool emergency card) - 2x wave rakes - short hook - medium hook 10) 4x Turning tool set (southern specialties longhorn lockpicking set) 11) Metal collar stay

LWL uses the term "fairly often" fairly often

"packed a lot of capability in a fairly small package" same man, same

This video made me realize I would be very interested in a video about how you utilize the Bobby pins to improvise tools, and seeing you pick a couple locks with them!

Southern Specialties about to release a LPL EDC set.

"I keep these in my front left pocket..." In my front right pocket I have the blue prints to Fort Knox, the guard schedule for the Louvre, and of course the Hope Diamond.

2:59 He says he uses the jigglers more than anything in the package... Which means when he's out and about he picks locks more than he uses a flashlight, lighter, or pen...

Me: I don't care about locks KZfaq Algorithm: Watch this video about locks Me: I'm addicted to lock videos

Quick question; why do you bother carrying your keys

I don’t smoke, but I find myself using this often. Arsonist, confirmed.

Until this very moment, I was never concerned about people around me casually seeing my keybit-ing. Now, I'm paranoid. Thanks LPL.

As a construction contractor, my EDC includes a cordless grinder, sawzall and a variety of large pry bars, all I've ever needed... BUT, thanks to finding your channel I now carry lock picks too :) I worked for a towing company years ago, so I keep lockout (auto) tools in my truck as well...

“This goes in my left front pocket every morning...” *The Pickpocketing Lawyer has entered the chat*

LPL's daily carry doesn't include a magnet. I must concede that there are probably at least 3 other pockets available. More like 15.

The collar stay tip has been one of the most useful things I've ever seen in a KZfaq video. The number of times I've been cooking and didn't feel like going and getting a screwdriver to tighten a loose handle on a pot or pan, but was wearing a collared shirt with metal stays has made that tip come up fast more than I'd ever expect.

The fact that he hides from view the bittings on his own personal keys, says a lot about him. He probably figures, since he could just glance at somebody's keys and create a usable copy, he cautiously figures there might be others out there who can also do the same.

I have to say, I'm impressed at the peak efficiency you've manged to pack into that.

"I don't smoke but I find myself using this [lighter] very often." _Suspicious_

Normal People: I need to get my bills paid tonight. LPL: I need to hide my keys so no one can see the bitting on them.

I found this very interesting to revisit now, after the release of the Covert Companion. You can see a lot of the inspiration in the customizations of existing picking tools on display here. I'm curious if the Covert Companion has caused you to retire this leather case and replace with something different (to continue to hold the pen/flashlight/etc, or if you did something like add a belt clip onto something to hang off of the side of the case?

Oh hey! I'm part of the Longhorn Lockpicking club, which I only joined because I was inspired by your videos. Didn't know they actually designed products though- that's nice to learn!

I just want to say that I have never had an interest in locks or locksmithing until I came across your KZfaq page a month or two ago. At this point I've watched at least a hundred plus videos of yours and I prefer to watch you pick locks than many other subjects on KZfaq that I actually have a direct interest in. You are a phenomenal narrator and truly passionate about what you do which attracts many people to your channel that may not even have an interest in locks. As a result of watching so many of your videos I have a Bowley 543 in stainless steel sitting on my desk as a paperweight. $250 (shipped) spent on a lock that I have no real use for but I had to have it considering I think it's the only lock I did not see you or anybody else online pick. You've created a weird fascination for me and I appreciate it because watching your videos is extremely entertaining. Thank you!

There’s something super satisfying about having such a compact collection of tools like this that you can carry anywhere with ease

Interesting how you took the time to protect the brand and shape of your keys. LPL knows what malicious actors would look for.

So the LockPickingLawyer needs keys? This is a legitimate plot twist.

The watch pocket is reserved for the tool Bosnian Bill and him made.

With some of your new sets, I'd love to see your updated EDC and/or this EDC load-out updated with what you'd suggest buying today to recreate this

Brings a date home. Opens the door, nothing on one, click out of two...

0:15 this is what I told my girlfriend on our first date

The street is now his desk

I love that I'm getting into edc and this pops up. Love to see what my favorite youtubers carry

The bit about the collar stay at 5:06 was my main takeaway from this. Very clever! It’s multi-purpose, and very sleek too. I think I’m going to add one to my EDC. Thank you. Very cool video on the whole.

"... also by Southern Specialties" Me, thinking: "Seems like he has a lot of their stuff in there" LPL: "Seems like I have a lot of their stuff in here" But seriously, very nice EDC. My picking EDC consists of: nothing at all. I used to carry picks around years ago and there wasn't a single occasion I actually needed them - which is a good thing because somehow I managed to lose the picks I was carrying somewhere, which included a very nice SSDeV set, which made me incredibly sad

I'm 66 years old. Got locked out of the house once in my life. Other than that, I never have needed to pick a lock. But I do enjoy the videos.

Never needed lockpicks.. Why am I thinking “I have to get some lockpicks”?

I'm very new to locksport,I picked my first lock do to necessity. I want to be good like you, Thank you for the awesome content and Knowledge

"Oh no! The robbers have put us all in this giant chain-link cage, padlocked it shut, and set the building on fire! WE'RE GOING TO DIE" *LPL yawns and reaches for his pocket*

I love the Space Pen, things are great! Great video as always! I loved this one a lot!

Learning how to pick locks on KZfaq many years ago has been a blessing and a curse.

This channel is part of the reason why I don't trust locks for security anymore. Now I simply see locks as a little sign that says, "in here is something that someone doesn't want you to take," which is why I am much more strategic about where I use locks now.

You thought this was a leather organizer, but it was me: Diodrio

He must get interesting looks from the guards at the courthouse when he takes this out of his pocket before going through the metal detector.

Bro I need literally everything in this video (or at least the non-lockpicking stuff). I've been using a similar key holder for the past few years and I love it but this would absolutely solve all my pocket organization problems. I wish there was a link in the description for these items on amazon

So I live in vegas and because of my job installing smart home devices like the kwikset 888 smart code locks and occasionally I have to replace the lock cylinder because 10% of the time the cylinder gets frozen when re keying the lock. And now I know how to reset the pins and get the lock re keyed by watching your videos absolutely fantastic.

Great video. If it’s not too much to ask, could you share an example of a situation in which you would use these thing on a day-to-day basis? I wouldn’t think that a given person gets many opportunities to pick locks outside of having locks at home specifically for that.

The funniest thing is it takes him longer to explain what tools he has than it takes him to open most locks with them.

I think it was this video. This video is the one where I realised how much of an og he is. He is a survivor of his kind. I feel admiration honestly.

Your videos are very good for learing english. You speak and pronounce very clearly. Thanks!

Gotta say, I have mad respect for you, LPL. I find myself wildly entertained by your videos. Keep up the great work!

That's only the front left pocket, I'm sure somewhere in the back right pocket or somewhere there is a ramset hidden, you know just in case ;)

Ive got the same organizer. Love it. Lives in my back pocket all the time. I also had that same olight till i upgraded to a copper one.

I've never felt this kind of inadequacy before but I now need to up my level of "stuff i have in my pockets".

Where's the big hammer...

I started picking when I was around 15 years old. Did it for a few years but have only done it here and there once in a while. Originally just ordered a cheap set from china, but your videos have inspired me to order some new higher quality ones. Great video!

Minus the key holder ( I use a Leatherman Skeletool in its place) I've been using this leather holder for a year now after seeing this video. Seriously works great and works for dress pants at work

That leather case actually looks like it would be a nice edition to most EDC setups regardless of what you put in it.

Imagine a life where u r like "imma just go in here"

1:54 - While screwing the flashlight cap back on, your muscle memory put your left hand straight into tensioning mode, didn't it? ;)

This is the best ad Energizer could have asked for

LPL, our kits are similar. But organizers are too bulky for ultralight EDC. I carry my light, lighter, and space pen in other pockets and it leaves my pocket space more balanced and doesn't bug me when I'm moving/sitting. Look at the tiny leather pick holders from southern specialties. Perfect for holding 4-5 mini-picks and a pair of TOK tensioners. That's my EDC for most days. Disappears in a pocket. 2 hooks and 2-3 rakes will get you into practically anything with your skill. For bypass tool inclusion, grab a Sparrows nightcrawler mini set for the case and add in some cut-down southern specialties hooks and bypass stuff. This kit is better for carrying that longhorn tensioner set, also.

Oh no, you’ve now showed people how to enter or leave any place in the world.

The science doesn't start until the Fisher Space Pen shows up. Part of my EDC as well.

I HAD absolutely no interest in taking up the hobby of lockpicking, but I'm getting convinced that it would be very interesting to learn how. Thanks for all of your videos.

Words I never thought I would hear associated with each other; lawyer’s EDC lock picks...

Plot twist: He never uses the keys; they're decoys. He made custom locks for his home with no keys and the only way to get in is by picking it.

Dude you should set up an Amazon affiliates link for this stuff...honestly especially not sponsored id use the link if it's something I want

Just love how you make so many tools fit tightly in such a small (and nice looking) container!

That is amazing the way you organized your tools. Just wow.

I’m left pondering what the hell kind of lawyering you do.

question one: why do you need to carry lock pick equipment everyday? question 2: if you don't smoke, why does a lighter come handy often?

wish i knew about this channel back when the soda truck stopped near my house everyday with a fat lock on it

I'm going through a binge of your channel contemplating your obsession with security and I had the epiphany when you said you like hiding your key bidding: Being broke af and not having anything valuable is way cheaper than obsessing over the right tools And locks to protect your junk. Want my 07 Vue? Yeah, didn't think so. But it is unlocked 🤣

So, legit question, what parts of your daily job as a lawyer requires you to have lock picking tools on you at all times?

pretty cool, i've always wondered if you carried some tools for every day. just one question though, how often are you picking locks "out in the field"?

I always smirk on people who bought "small, advertised as useful, but ultimately useless" gadgets like these. But yours looks extremely useful and very compact, especially combined with your lockpick skill.

I carry some similar things, but due to my situation my edc kit has to be much more capable. I would suggest taking a close look at some of Sparrows tools. A truly innovative company making high quality picks and bypass equipment at very reasonable prices. (No, I am not employed by them nor do I represent them in any fashion. I simply appreciate their quality and workmanship) Thanks for all of the fantastic content that you post, you are not only fascinating but you have become an invaluable online resource!

Batman is watching LPL thinking, "I need this set for MY belt!"

Don't need a Swiss army knife when you have this

I absolutely love Olight flashlights. That thing has been a lifesaver

Very cool 😎 nice to see 👀 your tools are so organized 👍and neatly kept in that leather pouch 👝

I honestly wasn't expecting the bobbypins. I thought that was just a old wives tale of some sort.

"You thought it was a normal/flying type but it was I, Diodrio!"

hey! I had been shopping for one of those holsters that hold a multitool and pocket knife on my belt; and every single other carrier I had found was no less than $69-$120... I found the SAME brand, Didro, or whatever... and I had paid $15 for the exact same product almost that others were charging a lot more for. Still holds up to using it every single day, even to this day.

It's actually pretty entertaining to me that searching the very first mentioned item on Amazon shows "frequently purchased together" and includes the next two items on his list, the fisher space pen and Olight flashlight. I love y'all, I've never ever cared or trusted at all if that part of Amazon recommendations worked correctly, but I'd be willing to bet in this case it's accurate.

I was at the gym (pre-quarantine days) and there was a really attractive girl who was very angry. I asked if there was anything I could do to help, she rolled her eyes and said "not unless you can pick locks. I left my locker key at home". Well. I told her to make sure the women's locker room was empty and she escorted me in. I had her locker opened in 30 seconds. Just a two pin tumbler that is loose as a bucket. Very poorly made. She has since become a good friend with possibilities for...more? I never thought my lock picking skills would get me a hook up, but life is like a box of chocolates, you leave them in the sun and the melt together. That has nothing to do with this story, I just thought it would sound like wisdom. And I am a very armature picker. If I had LPL skills, perhaps I could really score with the ladies. Or, just help a buddy...

Annnnnnd an important thing to remember is that carrying lock picking tools in public is illegal in many places unless you are a licensed locksmith. Laws vary, make sure you know for where you are.

Anyone else notice how this man is so serious about security, he made sure not to even show his own keys?

So this guy is every kid's dream uncle. Basically he's got all sorts of cool stuff in his pockets, he's got a wide range of handywork skills and he is knowledgable and works as a lawyer, meaning he's got insight into how people and the system at large works. He's also successful, respected and seems to have a healthy work-life balance. He has networked and experienced life to an impressive extent. Basically, comparing yourself to him is going to cause some inferiority issues.

I'm sad the Ramset never made it into his front-left pocket :(

So he has a full picking set in his pocket everytime he goes in a courtroom, definitely one of the strangest lawyer on the planet lol

Suprised no bosian bill disc decoder, but your such a pro you can prob decode a disc core lock by feel, inspired me to pick up the hobby!

I graduate from Law School in May and I just picked my first test lock. I'm .00001% on my way to earning your title :P

Any chance we get a shop tour of where you make your tools?

Oh no! He leaves the house with lockpicks

Glad I found this video cause I’ve never seen that type of lighter and want to add it to my collection. Thanks

That's so much stuff for such a small carry profile, it's pretty damn amazing.
