Oh and the keys were somewhat uncopyable - they used six-segment keys instead of the usual 5 (iirc), plus they had "Do Not Copy" so reputable locksmiths wouldn't touch them.

The lock after the "Metal" is not a GEGE that's why nobody was able to identify the model. It's the "markenschutz" (i.e. trademarked, not patented, key profile) from WILKA in Germany.

Keys snap or bend when you try to mass produce these. Locks have to open first and foremost.

[@johncrowerdoe5527]

@Virtual Rooster Most quality keyway shapes are patented and/or trademarked to limit who can get key blanks for copying keys or making bump keys. The patent method suffers from the 20 years or less they last before companies etc. need to change all locks and keys to one that isn't available at every low morality key cutting shop. This is why many are now going for the trademark protection, which can be cheaply extended almost forever.

[@Scawtsauce]

Money

[@johncrowerdoe5527]

Also, if the lock company wsnts to guarantee that all locks have different keys, they have to make a new shape that won't fit before running out of combinations. If they offer master keying, they also need to skip thousands of combinations and invent keyways that will fit two or more key shapes.

How are you gonna do a video on nasty keyways without featuring all the nasty keys that go along with them (ESPECIALLY the Cisa)?

[@josuelservin2409]

Some of the high security locks out there, are not available to individuals. And can only be purchase second handed, often without the keys. And as a security "feature" the key blanks are restricted and difficult or even illegal to obtain.

[@voidofmind]

Can you give an example of a key that is illegal to hold in your hand? Since that sounds like bullshit

[@NoNameC68]

Josuel did say that it's the key blanks that are illegal to obtain, not the keys themselves. I'm not sure myself, but I wouldn't be surprised if what he said was true. It's something I'd have to look into. If true, it's likely a means to prevent people from obtaining blanks that can be made into bump keys. That's not to say I agree with any blank key prohibitions, but that would likely be the reasoning for such laws.

Video trick. If you want to light the inside of a lock like the Fradon. Put a piece of glass or plex between the camera and the subject, at a 45 degree angle. Point a light from the side so it reflects off the glass down into the lock. Then just put a black card (cloth is better) on the opposite side. A bug inside the lock looking out would see bright light, while the camera 'sees' a reflection of blackness, so it doesn't see the glass just down into the lock. I like these videos a lot. It's made me think differently about locks. I've learned so much from your videos, mostly out of pure curiosity. Thanks

An idea im curious about is a key with a twist. Id imagine that would be tough to pick (but still possible) but id also imagine it would be complex and feel kinda clunky to use

[@bobmurray3229]

Your the absolute best, I love your work 🇺🇸

[@darwintaylor3005]

If he can't pick it open, you can pick it up, we know you wanna buy it. Everyone is hoarding tissue paper. I'm waiting to get my hands on some *nasty locks*

[@VideoDotCam]

Man, here I thought my oldish Yale Y1 with really high cuts was difficult, those ones look like a damn nightmare... Thanks for showing them off!

[@ArtificiallyIdiotic]

Completely unrelated but numbering the videos is actually a marvelous way to organize your uploads and make it incredibly easier to search for videos. Wow.

[@123GoBrits]

There is something politely insane about LPL that makes watching these so enjoyable

[@patheddles4004]

Hey cool, now I know that my childhood home had /really/ good locks - we had the Lockwood MLA system that's #3 here, though I don't think ours were bitted so sadistically. I do remember thinking it was basically magical though, how we had some keys that'd open the house and the garage, and other keys that'd open the garage but not the house. (Australian btw)

[@TheGreatSeraphim]

If you havent opened #3 I'd say its the nastiest lock.

[@henreyeraser3402]

I was thinking the same thing, also did he have 13 locks in the top ten list, because he stated number 1 and then went to number 3. -_-

[@TheEmeraldTiger]

Not if he is focussing on other locks

[@valentinfranco6396]

He said the same of 6

[@TheMasterofreal]

He's judging keyways, not the locks themselves

[@Onlinowiec1]

I love that these videos are numbered, that's so neat and helpful!

[@MrTruckerf]

"IN FACT, I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO OPEN IT UP."..........I do not believe you. You just want us to figure them out on our own.

[@nobodydoesithalfasgoodasyou]

If a good keyway really frustrates picking, why isn't it the norn? I'm a complete layman, but it doesn't seem as though it should be more costly to manufacture. Is it to do with patents?

[@Gralysin]

i think its because they keys are more complicated that way and that makes it more expensive. most locks dont need to be pickproof anyway its easier to cut the chain / smash the window etc already just being more than trivial to open usually does the job

[@kerielwatson3197]

Some of those keys would be more fragile and prone to bending out of shape; making them impractical for the average user.

[@zegaskmask5659]

I would say it’s due to the keys. When you want to get a copy of a key for somebody else, possibly a family member, you could always go to a local store and get a copy made with ease with plenty of different looking keys to choose from. These locks that have very different keyholes to the norm explain themselves why people don’t bother with them in the first place, which is just how different they are compared to what’s being used.

[@boiledelephant]

Yeah, what these guys said. The average burglar doesn't bother with picking much any more; standard house door barrels are 6-pin with a couple of mushroom pins or more, which is enough that it's a pain in the arse and not reliable under pressure. Much easier to figure out a workaround or brute force method (see Deviant Ollam's talk on Pen Testing for examples of that).

[@filanfyretracker]

@@boiledelephant And of course many suburban homes have a skeleton key, Go around back and put a brick through the patio door.

[@ilikewaffles3689]

LPL: I've never been able to pick this lock Me: Write that down, write that down

[@Izbiski_]

I would love to see an update to this video with your expanded collection.

[@Robert-xp4ii]

Damn! I respect your complete honesty throughout this video and it actually makes me respect you that much more. Inevitably, some locks are just going to be impossible to pick but you are the boss! 👍

[@dirk4926]

I wonder how many of those Fradon locks end up with bugs making homes in that big round keyway!?!

[@johnfrancisdoe1563]

Dirk Easier to flush them out than in a narrow cosy one.

[@cheeko_914]

@SidtheKid That's how you jam the pins, seizing the lock for the owner and the locksmith

[@imthedarknight-8755]

Nick Ferrara hit it with a hose, an air compressor to clear water, and wd40 to ensure it doesn't rust, you'd be alright

[@adminscottj]

I have been looking at your store but am not sure what tools are needed to pick "Best" locks. I have not seen that nasty angle but I know an old locksmith buddy of mine said Best locks are pretty great so I wanted to give it a try. Any chance you can advise on what tools from your shop are needed to get started? Thank you!

[@Jerrybasel]

That's interesting. Thank you for another wonderful video. I wondert what the keys are looking for these locks...

[@erdnussflipper172]

Can you make a top 10 bike locks list?

[@tongmaa]

I've really enjoyed watching your videos. I was a reserve officer in the Army and assigned to the Intelligence Branch. We took a course on "Defense Against Methods of Entry (DAME)" and "Defense Against Sound Equipment (DASE)" and which taught lock picking and types of sound equipment which could be used against the Army/Government. I never managed to even pick one simple door lock; although the time we had to learn, feel and accomplish the effort was only about an hour from introduction to working on the lock. In that regard, I'm delighted with your skill(s) and have even more respect for the two times I had to have a "Master" open my door(s) for me after losing the keys. You all are expert skilled professionals ... and even if my locks both took less than a minute each to open :)

[@aatashiwadoremi]

That sounds like such a fun course to take! Is it something that you’d be able to share a bit of what you learned from the “Defense Against Methods of Entry” course?

[@AlbertDoes]

Would love to see these revisited!

[@lupyx4632]

Lockpicking lawyer : A lock that couldn't been opened by me Everyone : Doubt X

[@dutch_blades]

The keyway to the CISA lock looks like a microscope; that's pretty neat :')

[@AlbertLebel]

As I am a beginner picker, I get used locks and some without keys. I find some, but others I just dont know how to order them. While looking online I find there are so many different ones to chose from. Its tough. Even when they have pictures its hard to tell.

[@lockpickinglawyer]

I spent way too much time on eBay. ☺️

[@Hgamern]

I'm sat going through your videos in random order, thinking "Man, is there any lock he can't pick? Does a pick proof lock even exist?", Then I find this and all my questions were answered (Namely yes and potentially). Great video :D

[@borisvandruff7532]

Something I never thought of but makes perfect sense now: The weirder the keyway, the prettier the key.

[@user-vo9xo8hq9x]

you have as many locks as that bridge in Cologne

[@ramrot666]

“This hole was made for me!”

[@ChaossX77]

Anyone know if there was a follow-up video on these locks after his skills improved over the years? Just wondering if he managed to pick these eventually.

[@Kiyoone]

wow... i do not understand how or why but... this man videos are so satisfying

[@murrayjohnson3998]

If you think that the Master Locksmiths JA keyway is nasty, Look up their successor to the J series. The GP series. They've added another ward to it. Instead of ML shape it's more like NNL. Great Vid. Half the appeal of a lock is the keyway. Cheers

[@theK4b6]

Have you been able to pick the "Best WB Keyway" since this was uploaded?

[@ScireVolo]

I'd like to see LPL revisit these locks, some time has passed and I'm sure he has improved.

[@mathieu2109]

The comment above you said he picked it in 486

[@Cupsigaming]

Your locks will make a find addition to my collection

[@Dani-it5sy]

Would be cool to have a separate playlist for all the locks you never managed to pick ;-)
