EVVA 3KS Plus - Pick & Gut

[@lockpickinglawyer]

Great job... never seen the insides before, which was great also. Thanks for sharing.

[@tumbl3r]

It's different, that's for sure! Pretty logical layout really, but there is so much milling in that core it's a little intimidating at first. Not having most things spring loaded helped a lot.

[@maratimus]

I also watch your channel man

MasterLock: “look at us, we innovate!” Evva: “awe, that’s adorable.”

[@chadderalleh8107]

haha your adrenaline was rushing after you picked it. mine would be too if i picked that sucker on camera. good job

[@blwngt1598]

Dear God man! There were 2 things running through my head for the whole gutting. 1. Whoever designs these has absolutely found their calling in life! 2. Those damn shaking hands! But only because I can feel your pain, my friend! Stupid adrenaline! hehe And the close up with the camera just magnifies it. First vid of yours that I've watched, & def not the last. Congrats & well done!

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks man! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video! The shaking hands and adrenaline dump are a big part of the fun for me. The excitement makes it all worthwhile. Hopefully it shares a little of how I'm feeling with my friends as well :)

[@blwngt1598]

tumbl3r Yeah, something that I have always found kinda funny/weird is that whenever you're working on a project, game, or challenge & we'll use picking locks for this example, your hands & everything else will be steady like a rock even though that is when the adrenaline is actually pumping. But as soon as you're done picking the lock, the second you stop concentrating is when the shaking instantly starts & will continue at least twice as long as it took to pick the lock! ("You" was a general term & not you specifically.) You are right though, the shaking really does convey your adrenaline & excitement a lot more to those of us watching.

[@tumbl3r]

That's very well said. I have found the same thing. I think this lock was actually the first one where I started getting that rush before I opened it. The reason was that this was the very first take on the camera and I assumed I'd not be able to get it so quickly. When I realized I was making progress and the lock was nearly going to open, I got really excited. It all just intensified after the plug turned. LOL :)

[@blwngt1598]

Well the next time that happens gently set the lock down in frame, stand up, then start throwing your picks, vice, etc... while screaming "Yeah Bitches!" Then go out for a beer & a smoke before you dissect it! LOL Just doooooon't get too ambitious & start flipping the table over! 😉😆

[@ReallyWemja]

Beta-blockers also help against shaky hands. its not ideal but it may work if it causes you trouble in making videos. Most doc's will give a script if you ask for one since its pretty safe and cant be used by junks.

[@mikaxms]

I've watched quite a few videos from the LockPickingLaywer, but this is in a league of its own. Well done and congrats!

[@evgeniykulivatskiy]

A master! I've changed my locks to EVVA and was told its the best locks, i asked the lockpicker how hard its to lockpick it, he told me its not possible, i was really sceptical about this statement. Im gonna send him a link to this vid, nothing is impossible. Great job!

[@videosuperhighway7655]

Well the key is how much time is required to defeat and how many average criminals are capable of defeating the lock. It will take way too much time and by then cops have arrived.

[@locksmithgossip6675]

I love the shaking hands, Shows just how much pride you put into your craft. man this is very impressive. One of only a few people that can tackle this lock. Ive got well over 20 hours and nothing, not even And not even a false set. What a very mean lock. You man it look like childsplay, nice video sir -LSG

[@k5ren]

DUDE! I was getting nervous just watching you disassemble that! You shake like a criminal!! A shot of whiskey before that lock might have been a good plan!! Great job though Bill. Very impressive picking!!

[@ArtemisPicks]

Amazing pick dude! That's extremely impressive.

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks very much, Artemis! Appreciate the kind words!

[@overlordghs1081]

[@maratimus]

Exactly

[@mannyman4103]

9:45 I think i can hear your heart beat!!! The rush of Adrenaline you got is just crazy!!! Great picking!

[@Bri-bn5kt]

Evva just makes NASTY locks. I wouldn't even dream of attempting to pick. Good on you for toughing it out.

[@robinloxley8732]

Goodness, I could feel ur excitement after picking it. This was amazing. And the lock is really a piece of art. Cheers

[@dusso4231]

Great pick man. Very impressive. When im picking high security locks i end up having to have a stiff drink first to keep my hands from shaking lol. Ive accidentally overset pins because i got too jittery.

[@FusionDeveloper]

Wow! You have videos of you successfully picking the least likely to be picked locks. In other words, you have "The rest of the locks" covered. Amazing work.

[@roncalabrese305]

I don't know if it was anxiety or adrenaline but like a true Scout you kept going. incredibly nice job.! awesome.!!!

[@rollbot]

absolutely beautiful work! with gutting it on cam .. amazing. I wish that I could have half of your skills here! I love this video!!

[@tumbl3r]

Thank you very much for your kind words, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. These days, lots of folks seem to be picking this lock, but back then it seemed darn near impossible to me. It sure was thrilling to get it open on camera! Thanks again for watching and I'm happy you enjoyed my video :)

[@jpmcpinning4255]

Nice! Black belt! I love how your hands shake. It shows passion for the sport:) well done sir!

[@Synthetica9]

Wow, my apparent complex uses these, and this definitely makes me sleep better at night! Great job!

[@AveragePicker]

Just got my hands on one of these. Nice to see it gutted. I kind of had the idea of what was going on but not quite grasping it. Thanks

[@DrSid42]

Who needs pick gun with hand shaking like that ! :-D Good job !

[@dirksecrets]

Wow. That's a impressive level of picking. I have made a Vid in June about a cutaway of those locks. Thanks for gutting and showing the inside.

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks +dirk! I saw your cutaway vid on this lock, and it is absolutely beautiful! Like all of your videos really, it was just beautiful! I actually learned a lot about this lock from that video.

[@dirksecrets]

Thank you for your kind words. Your picking of this lock is really fantastic. While my research about this lock I found not so much about picking of it. Again great job.

[@unrandomron]

Wow...what a good job sir, just looking at it made me shake!! Excellent.

[@scottyrye]

haha, I could FEEL the adrenaline in your voice and see it in your hands. congrats man that is one hell of a pick.

[@PapaGleb]

Very impressive work bud. Kudos. Can't be many pick videos of this lock.

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks +Papa Gleb! Yeah, not too many vids out there. I know Farmer Freak did one along with one or two others. It's a pretty darn tough lock!

[@AintBigAintClever]

I've got these on the house and garage (a keyed-alike set of four, soon to be expanded to six). I believe they read the key four times in a full rotation, so if you're picking it in a real-world scenario (i.e. a door) you'd pick it, but for every 90 degrees the key needs to rotate before the mechanism opens you'd have to pick it again.

[@tumbl3r]

Twice actually. The bottom bar groove at 90 degrees is not deep enough to disengage the sliders from he sidebar so the combination cannot really be scrambled at those points. It can be scrambled at the 180 degree points, but it's usually not because the sliders are not spring loaded. They tend to stay where they are after picking so long as you're careful not to disturb them. With a bit of care you can open the lock on a door with one picking. That doesn't mean the picking is easy though. It is not.

[@N0B0DY_SP3C14L]

I'm sure someone else answered the riddle, but I'm going to guess the answer is a piano. Very nice job picking a rather difficult lock. Respect.

[@a_rabid_raccoon]

hell yeah great video! that adrenaline rush after picking a tough lock in front of people is so relatable, hah! my hands shook like that after picking my first duracam in front of my friend.

[@bobbykeyz1263]

That was a great pick, that lock looks like it took a lot of concentration good job. Congrats RedEye I'm a little late.

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks Bobby! Yeah, I was working up to this pick for almost three weeks. It had really been taking pretty much all of my lock picking focus.

[@bobbykeyz1263]

+tumbl3r I'll bet, it looked like you were exhausted after that one. Again great job.

[@pkvalsvik]

Impressive work on that lock! And don't mind the handshake, we all get a rush sometimes ^_^

[@gordonwiessner6327]

Now the challenge is putting it back together.

[@eliasragnarsson24]

oh my god the shaking hands😂 adrenaline rush like a boss😄 nice pick and vid bro!

[@tumbl3r]

Hahaha... Yeah, this one had me shaking like a leaf! The adrenaline dump is part of what makes this stuff so fun! All that work culminating in that one second it takes the plug to turn. Just love it! It's even more pronounced for me when the camera is rolling :)

[@eliasragnarsson24]

tumbl3r just started picking finally and i got the same when i finally spp my titalium 80/50 the other day, that last pin and the sound of the schackle spring open is addicting af😊 same as landing a big fish lol

[@Steel-Pinnings]

Wow! Man ol man any time I am having trouble getting a lock to open. I just think about your pick or watch a video of you picking. Gives a sense of renewed hope with the chicken scratch I am working on. lmao. Seriously though, This is a very impressive pick and how you make it look so easy is a talent most don't possess.

[@Steel-Pinnings]

oh yeah, I forgot to mention something that I felt about the milling in the core and not alowing the core to slide out because the groves cut in the core housing ia very similar to the Emhart core expect in opposite. This one has the milling in the housing and the Emhart has the milling on the core. Very good review of the EVVA lock. Kudos

[@tumbl3r]

Very astute observation about the similarity to the Emhart. I'd not thought of it, but they really are very similar! I remember you mentioning in one of your videos that you are working on picking the Emhart. Did I understand that correctly? If so, I'm extremely interested to hear how it's going? I've got one that I'm a little afraid to pick because they are so difficult to get ahold of and I don't want to risk damaging it.

[@tumbl3r]

Dude! You are picking tough locks! I have no doubt whatsoever that you can pick any of the locks I have and more. It just takes time, effort and a structured approach. Develop a plan and work through it until the lock opens :)

[@Steel-Pinnings]

tumbl3r Thanks, I really appreciate your support. As I really look up to your picking. But yeah I have gotten my little Emhart KIK cylinder to open twice and of course never on camera for one reason or another. lol And now I have removed all the master wafers so it's even harder now. lol But I had an extremely lucky find in a box of manly scrap locks (cabinet and desk locks) But there were a few key finds and one was a beautiful Emhart mortise cylinder with key and the bitting is much easier and I probably could get it easier as well. But I can't bring myself to drill out the chamber plugs. No way!! So I haven't even put a pick in it yet. lol

[@tumbl3r]

WOW! That is a super lucky find! I had an eBay alert going for months before I finally saw one pop up. Turns out it was being sold by Mac, LOL. It was a totally fair price, but still pretty expensive given that they are not made anymore an pretty much as commonly seen as unicorns. As you have been picking yours, feel like you are damaging the pins much as you grab onto them a try to turn them? That's really my biggest worry. I think it's totally cool that you've taken on this project! The Corbin Emhart is one of my favorite locks! Please keep us updated on how the project is going :)

I'm really impressed. That looks really difficult. Nice picking! Piano.

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks +freakedu! It was a pretty tricky pick for sure! You're right on with the riddle, but +REDEYE Locksport beat you to it last night.

[@BronxLockPicker60Rodriguez]

No problem Sir! I just had to share my thoughts, OCD! Lol. Love your channel! Keep up the good work my friend!

[@user-wu7ug4ly3v]

Much better pickers than me have said it already, but man that was a brilliant pick!

[@giacomocasanova2893]

we have these locks at home. after seeing this i think it‘s safe to share this haha

[@TomKatona]

Great video, thanks for shaking!

[@tumbl3r]

Hahaha... I see what you did there!

[@huxleypig69]

Great picking man! Tough lock to pick.

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks dude! This one played mind games on me for sure. I'm really interested to learn more about the toothed pick you use on this lock.

[@huxleypig69]

tumbl3r I sent you a message over on Keypicking mate. It is pretty simple but could be calibrated so you know which slider you are on too.

[@tumbl3r]

It is simple, but the most brilliant designs usually are. I really like your design. I'm going to make one up and give it a go. Thanks a million!

[@NoctisMotus]

Wow. Wild looking and beautiful lock. Great pick. Sure looked like an adrenaline rush. If I tried that my brain would almost certainly explode. LOL Thank you for sharing.

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks +Noctis Motus! Yeah, I was actually shocked at how badly I was shaking as I started to gut it. I wanted to keep the intro, pick and gut all within the KZbin 15 min limit, so I was rushing on top of it. At times it looked as if I was having a seizure, LOL!

[@NoctisMotus]

Good god, as if the task wasn't crazy enough as it was. LOL Did you dance round the room like a madman afterwards? I would have. :)

[@forestnfren8146]

i've watched tons of your videos and never noticed shakey hands. hope your health was okay in this one

[@sl1mp1k1nz9]

wow! I mean really man, wow! thanks for taking the time and showing us that mad skill! piano right?

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks so much for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Your answer is correct, but that lock was claimed shortly after I published the video by REDEYE Locksport. I usually give away a lock at the end of each video though, so keep an eye out for the next one. Thanks again for watching!

[@DRMORSEgreekwellville]

Is there any lock that can't be picked?

[@tumbl3r]

Certainly there are some that haven't been picked. Although it's hard to imagine one that can't. I think something like the IKON Verso with a CLIQ in it would be about the closest thing I can think of to pick-proof.

[@DRMORSEgreekwellville]

Thanks, I appreciate your answer

[@ariesassistenza]

In questo video (e in altre demo) non si vedono il tipo di profilo chiave, il codice seriale per intero, viene utilizzata una testina e non un cilindro intero come esce dalla fabbrica, la testina al momento della manipolazione è rovesciata (quando mai una porta va montata al contrario), e soprattutto 3ks plus ed il suo successore, il 4ks, hanno, ad ogni quarti di giro, il controllo profilo, infatti il test di apertura non è valido perché lo sblocco dei cursori e la rotazione del rotore è meno del quarto di giro. Ad ogni quarto di giro, in un test vero, occorre estrarre il grimaldello ed il tensore e ripartire da zero, finché il test non è fatto secondo questi parametri non è valido. Tutti i clienti che hanno un 3ks o 3ks plus verifichino che quando girano la chiave nel cilindro ad ogni quarto di giro si sente il controllo profilo.

Thanks Mike! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Checked out your channel too and grabbed a sub. Looks like you have some great stuff up there.

[@BrianSu]

That was so much easier to pick than the EVVA MCS. I’m very impressed with EVVA but sadly their locks can’t be ordered keyed alike to specific keys that you already have :(

[@pausmth]

Wow as always. Also I think peterson sells c clip removers for like 3 dollars in the clearance section right now... If you don't already have one by now anyway....

[@Прохожий-ы8к]

Excellent pick Master 👍🔓🌐 What about 4ks ?))) If you pick 3 ks so four ks you will to pick too 👍🔓 I'm sure 😅 Difficult to pick this brand. But you make it very clear and effectively, Master !!! Good luck 👍

[@PickME1977]

AWESOME PICKING!! Amazing lock...Very cool :-)

[@tumbl3r]

What's the most difficult lock to pick?

What cylinder brand would you recommend using on a front home of a flat?

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks Jay! Glad you enjoyed it. This is really one of my favorite locks, and it was great to finally catch it on cam. This one was particularly camera shy.

[@Potti314]

Amazing picking - fantastic to see that lock picked in such a short time. How can you distinguish between false an true gates. How long did you try until it first opened? Cheers and thanks for that great video.

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks man! It's always hard to say how much time I put into these locks, but I can say with some confidence that I worked on it for at least a few hours a day for about a month. Within the last few weeks it's probably been more like three or four hours a day. It probably took upwards of 80 hours or so to get it opened for the first time. Even with all that work, I feel like I'm very far from being able to generalize the skill enough to just walk up to any old 3KS and pop it within a reasonable amount of time. As for the sliders and how to tell where you are with them, it's a pretty complex answer. In the most simple terms, I tap on them to see if they feel tightly bound or ever so slightly loose. This is one of those areas where theory diverges from practicality though, because the sliders are not sprung, making it much more difficult to tell if they jiggle or are tight. Still, it's a very good first indication and I used it a lot on this lock. Peering inside the keyway a visually confirming this was actually easier than doing it by feel. Other things to look for are how deeply or sharply it clicks as you move the sliders around. I found that I could usually get it to a point where the clicks and associated plug turn would be dramatic enough that I could "read" the sliders more easily. For example if I moved one of them, and it had a subtle click, I was pretty sure I was in a false or partial gate. If it snapped sharply, it was indication of a true gate. I would then go on to confirm this with tapping. Hopefully that helps a bit. I may make a video about my approach to this lock and the challenges it presented if there is enough interest.

[@Potti314]

Thanks for you comprehensive and open answer. You did an amazing job and I'm sure that I'm not the only one who is yearning to hear and see more about the background of picking this lock. I was impressed by the 80h of picking preparation - not that it takes that much time but that you have so much passion to stick to picking it until the final success (which was probably unclear). But then I thought about myself and had to laugh, because I'm actually the same crazy guy spending endless hours of feeling and hearing the feedback of a lock... Keep up the great work and please don't worry about a 15min limit; check out this: support.google.com/youtube/answer/71673?hl=en

[@NoctisMotus]

I'll put my hand up to register interest in seeing that. Not that I will ever see one of these but I think there will something to learn still.

[@tumbl3r]

My pleasure! I hope my explanation made sense. I totally know what you mean about the time we spend with these locks. For me at least, the time melts away and I'm often shocked at just how long I've spent picking, LOL! I always know it's time for me to take a break when my hands start going to sleep on me. I'm planning to do another video where I talk more about the lock and how I approached it. I've also been talking with +huxleypig69 about the approaches and tools he has used on the 3KS, so I'll probably include a bit about that as well. I'm far from an expert on picking this lock, but I will try to share the bit that I have learned. I always try to add more about technique when I'm picking, but it's hard for my mind to focus on picking and explaining at the same time.

[@MasterMindmars]

Very complex mechanism into. One more idea to get more secure the locks. Until now, the only lock unpicked is Yuema 750 series.

[@titolockpicking9246]

👏 great picking !

[@rjperkins365]

Wow very nice. Every once in awhile I go on Security Snobs (I think that's the name) and check their EVVA cutaway set they have for $1,300 and drool.

[@tumbl3r]

You and me both, my friend. You and me both! That is a really sweet setup, but the price is pretty astronomical!

[@gianluigijequinto]

Just curious with the shaking. Is it due to the physical fatigue of having to keep tension constantly for +6mins or the mental stress of knowing that you have to maintain focus or you risk having to restart? My best bet is a bit of both.

[@Aetohatir]

My parents house has an EVVA 3KS Plus in the front door and you've just convinced me of of completing a household insurance.

[@tumbl3r]

If you're worried about someone picking that lock, don't be. It's one of the most difficult locks in the world to pick. Nobody is just going to walk up to one of these and pick it. There are only a few of us who have ever managed to do it and that's under laboratory conditions. The 3KS is a fine lock. Nobody is going to be picking it.

[@jipslocksport7988]

amazing pick buddy well done *****

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks Tristan! Appreciate the kind words man!

[@drewestes2010]

Hey bud, would this be called a wafer lock of sorts or no? If not please tell me what this is called. Great picking! I'm so shaky when I open a high security lock and it seems to be how everyone else gets too.

[@tumbl3r]

Hey Drew! Thanks for watching man! This is really more of a "slider" lock than a "wafer" style.Admittedly though, the distinction can get a little blurry with locks like the SmartKey system. For me, the hands shaking are a visual indication of what makes picking these locks so much fun... Really exciting and a lot of adrenaline, LOL.

[@drewestes2010]

tumbl3r I agree with you that when you spp a high security lock the movement of the core triggers adrenaline big time. I am in love with that feeling.

[@JONSLOCKPICKING]

great picking. if ever want to trade it. I give you a MT5 with keys and card. once again great job

[@tumbl3r]

Thanks! I'm going to hang onto it for now. I am far from learning all its secrets, and I think spending more time with it would do me good in terms of learning to generalize what I have learned from this lock to others like it. I'll let you know though.

[@zacharyalvernaz7916]

Seriously, you need a dram ready to go for between pick and gut on a lock like this.

[@SighsInternally]

You ok dude? hands shakin like you got hypothermia

[@hagit33]

So what do you say about it? Is it an hard lock to pick by "ordinary" Thieves? Would you recommend it on homes? I mean you have to think about the situation of breaking on homes which is stressful from the very idea of it, considering puting it on my flat

[@tumbl3r]

It is among the hardest locks to pick in the entire world. Ordinary thieves stand virtually no chance of picking it. If you are considering this lock for your home, I think it would be a very very good choice. This one or the ASSA Twin series are probably the best locks going in my opinion. Stay away from the EVVA MCS. It has a lot of plastic inside it and its construction is far too complex to be a good, reliable lock system.

tumbl3r ASSA series? Its the same company as evva? Sorry i just heard about those locks today since my parents flat just broke in yesterday and im looking for a good lock. The guy that recommended evva locks have a series of the same locks like this one but this is the most expansive, can you recommend another from the same series so i can ask him? I guess he have an economical interest to sell me the most expansive one

EVVA is a company that is separate from the large ASSA Abloy conglomerate. It's actually noteworthy that they are not owned by ASSA Abloy since nearly every high security lock maker is. Anyhow, that's not really important for you and your decision making. Suffice to say that you generally get what you pay for in terms of locks. If your locksmith is suggesting you buy EVVA 3KS locks, it's a good recommendation. They are good locks that will keep your property safe. They are as good, and probably almost exactly as expensive as ASSA Twin locks, which use a different design. Often locksmiths will not cary all types of locks, so it's possible and even likely that your locksmith works with EVVA locks but not ASSA locks. This is fine and totally normal. Again, if he is selling EVVA 3KS or 4KS locks, don't think twice about buying them. They are among the best locks on Earth. I do suggest staying away from the MCS line from EVVA because of the amount of plastic inside the core and the overall complexity of the design. EVVVA makes a few different lines of locks (MCS, 3/4KS, ICS,etc). I believe the best lock they make is the 3KS (or 4KS). The 4KS is nearly identical to the 3KS, so don't worry too much about which one you go with. Does this help? The world of high-security locks is complicate and confusing. I've picked most of them, and I can honestly say that this lock (the EVVA 3KS) was one of the most difficult. It took me months to learn how to do it. A common thief has zero chance of doing it, realistically.

tumbl3r wow this is very helpful! Im from israel we have a local brand that sells doors and locks which are old generation apparently. Anyway not sure they sell every brand here but he did recommended this saying it take over 40 minutes to pick this one if he is really good and he probably will give up much faster. Thank again for your help

Ok i asked the guy with the locks, he have also FPS and ICS, the FPS is the cheapest the ICS is more expansive and the 3ks is more, of the other two what would you say about them if im low in cash? Thank u

oh... i was considering this lock, but seeing a veteran with shaky hands pick it easily...

[@tumbl3r]

If you like this lock buy it! There are only a few of us who are able to pick it. It's a very good lock.
