As a dude who just picks for funsies I have no idea what locksmiths actually do in practice, so it's cool to see stuff like this. Thanks for the vid!

I do like seeing tools on this channel. It gives insight of the industry

This is a very clever picking tool. So well thought out. I enjoy seeing these locksmith specific tools as being a locksporter we would not get to see these tools at all let alone get a review of them. So I do appreciate you doing these type of reviews. I have a few locksmith mates that I mention tools like this to. They work full on and would never have come across a new tool like this without someone mentioning it to them, cheers

Great tools GJ makes, see a few comments about Locksmiths drilling locks, most Locksmiths would avoid drilling and definitely be a last resort. Warrant Locksmiths need to lock back up rather than replace. These tools are great for picking compared to a traditional flag pick and z bar, much more control. Picks up cam on thumb turns too no messing.

What a beautifully made tool

Excellent video, thanks for sharing 🙏

Looks like this tool mainly just saves time for a pro. For a hobbyist like me those locks look pickable with a set of dimple lock picks and a couple half-diamonds. Although to answer your question at the end: I think its useful to see what pro solutions are out there. It adds to the knowledge base.

GJ makes some incredible tools. Some of the best out there. Keep reviewing these Ash :)

Nice one mate, great bit of kit. 👍

Now that is a really nicely made tool, and I love seeing professional locksmith tool reviews. I have a lot of friends that are locksmiths, at my job they were just drilling cores, or worse using a crowbar on the door destroying everything. Sent them a link to I believe Bosnian Bill's core removal tool, now the locksmiths have 2, and security (the ones with crowbars) have 2 as well (no more destroyed doors). So yes these reviews are very helpful, thanks! Side note, the extra key pieces would work great, but I was thinking of some type of gummy sticker that is easily applied to the handle with index marks, just take it off and wash it then it's sticky again.

Good demo.

This has given me a great idea for a versatile tool that may even work on Lishi’s. Thanks for the video Ash - you might receive a prototype picking tool from me one day!

Anything that increases my lock skills. 🇺🇸

Like it.

Love your content! Thank you so much!

Fantastic pick buddy . I might of known he wouldn't sell to lock sport pickers Robbie from huyton Liverpool UK. 😢

very nice bit of kit Ash mate 🇬🇧😊😎👍👊

Nice

LockNoob: what kind of tools you want to see? KZfaq Community: yes! 😆 Looks like that tool has the potential to be a universal dimple lock "lishi", if only the scales would be replaceable, together with the tensioning blades. As the tool is, a bit "bulky" (not meant negatively), there still should be enough material left, if the scales could be removed/replaced, and maybe fixed with a little grubscrew or magnet. Then it's like: Everyone: what lock can I open with this tool easily? GJ: yes 😁😂

Looks like a really nice tool. I've wondered why a Lishi doesn't have a detachable tip like this to pick something like the finger pins of a Primus - guess it'd be similar to this.

Классная машинка, только не могу понять , почему со слайдерами такая проблема, обычно они за один проход набираются)))👍

Cool tool but that doesn’t seem to provide a significant assistance over a tensioner and dimple picks. The challenging bit of dimple locks is often to find the right tensioner / pick combo. If you encounter a specific model often as a locksmith, I assume you will take note of the matching pair and be able to pick as fast as with the tool.

I think you should review the professional tools. Personally, I find them very interesting.

Tbh it’s not a very hard lock to pick. As a locksmith I know People in the industry don’t want to put the effort or skill that why they would buy a pick like that. But cool vid bro.

so with these tools the real appeal to smiths is the decoding feature more than anything. Im wondering how hard it is to actually cut keys for these dimple + slider combination locks in the field. Im assuming it all comes down to the machine in the van and the blanks available

Tips for picking side bar pins?

Gj gears awesome have a look at fortress locksmith he has a case he had made up he calls his James bond case its Beautful it has every gj 2in1 in there 16 it's a thing of beauty and why not buy the best write it all off on tax so yes please

Hey LockNoob, are there any locks that can't be picked? I really enjoy your videos. Watching from WV USA.

So it does not line up what's the point, this tool is supposed to take the guess work out of it , why not just make the correct markings on the tool 🥴

First

Monkey paw= 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I can never remember which Yale is which with the Superior and Platinum. It should also work a treat with the Millenco Magnum. Thanks for the demo Ash and have a fantastic week mate.
