Have the Lishi 2-in-1 Picks Been Debunked?

- We enjoy the healthy amount of skepticism that can come with our products and videos, particularly with revolutionary ones. However, when there are multiple comments in our Lishi Pick videos that the lock used is somehow “rigged” or “zero-bitted,” it’s time to put those myths to rest.

Behold! A “one-shot” video proof with no cuts, movie magic, or makeup! In this video, you’ll see a pin and tumbler lock broken down into its individual pieces, then witness the process of it being assembled into a fully functional lock.
After that, the Lishi gets to “show its stuff” and makes quick work of the lock, continually opening it without issue. From the beginning, we’ve been trying to highlight that these revolutionary tools not only make picking fast, but repeatable and reliable. So if you’re in the doubter camp, watch our video above and then click the link to get some Lishi Picks of your own!

i had an employee lock a cabinet that has a Best lock on it. No one would make a key for me from the number on the lock . I am a total novice and received the Lishi BE2-6 today. it took ten minutes (I had to figure out tension) this was my first lock pick. I got to the control sheer line, took out the lock and opened with a screwdriver. YES this tool works as advertised
All I kept thinking at the beginning of the video was Bill O'Reilly saying, "Eff it! We'll do it live!" Lol. Great explanation of the toolset.Thanks for sharing.
Used these several times in real world applications. Works like a dream.
Never even touched any locksmith tools and had less than 2 hours of study, all from watching LPL vids. Received a SC1 Lishi tool and within 5 minutes had opened my sliding door. The apartment complex charges $25 for a lockout, I let my neighbors in for free. As it should be.
Did anyone what to hear "click out of one, nothing on 2, nice click on 3, 4 is binding,.. " etc?
I appreciate how you made the video without edits. A lot of lockpock stuff I've seen on YT has some cheats in it
eg: "look how fast I can pick this"
@@lukeburkett5645 It's all well and good to use your fastest take of a video to show off speed, but I think people need to understand it's just a way for us to communicate the "whoa" of these picks in a short amount of time. The speed ain't nothing to the reliability. I've been able to pick open SC1 and KW1 locks every time that I struggle single-pin-picking frequently for whatever reason. ~ Rob
At 3:25, your hand and wrist conceal the entire lock and the space between the lock and your "practice stand". An accomplice could have easily swapped the lock for another with "unusual bitting". The difficulty with removing the key at 5:47 is indicative of a lock that is not functioning properly and calls into question the debunking of the debunkers.
Just kidding! Those Lishi's look amazing, and nice video. I enjoyed the lock assembly portion too. I had no idea how much easier those Lishi's make opening the lock.
As a door guy this is an amazing tool.
I'm more of a window man myself, but I agree they're super amazing tools. ~ Rob
And a robber too
Lock Picking Lawyer, get out of that body!
Great for decoding
Great video, thanks for walking through the process
.
Anyone saying that is either just trollin' ya', or is an inbasul and just doesn't know how the Lishi picks work.
TLPL has plenty of videos on these as well.

They're legit tools for sure. ~ Rob
Who is an "imbecile?" Wow. 🙄🙄
@@crookedtool
Too shay. :)
My question is how can you know what picks are for what kind of locks.
Lishi tools are keyway-specific, so eg the SC1 only works for that specific Schlage keyway. They only have a few non-automotive keyways, though
By the shape of the keyway. Look up the shape of SC1 versus KW1, which are both 5 pins. The 6 pin keyway shapes are the same for SC4 and KW5, respectively. A SC4 Lishi can be used in a SC1 keyway.
Standard pin with standard driver pin so easy ! 🎉
Anybody says that has never used one. I have the kw1 and have popped every kwikset and defiant lock I have.
Is there a way to know what kind of key the lock is using? Let's say I bought the KW1, how would I know for sure if it's the right one for the lock that I'm trying to open?
well youd use it on a kwikset keyway
I thought this video was "debunking lishi's" i was like, "Dont they work super well and are used very often?"
Then i watched and understood.
I sure needed one of these last week.... My son locked himself out of his house
And he had secured it well to prevent burglaries. Luckily, his ex-girlfriend had kept a copy of his door key
love the lishi
These are the new how notness, buy the 6pin and you can use it on the 5 but without the old model like I have I don't know how you would get in tight spots...
i learned how to pick a copy keys in lima penitentiary in the 90s . this is amazing.
yes they work great... they dont work on smart key quickset types though.
They do work on smartkey. Smartkey is the only lock I've found them to be worth the cost on, in fact. If you're talking about the reverse side bar introduced in gen 3, they still work but are a bit more difficult, but still work. But judging by the blanket statement you made, I don't think you've ever picked a smartkey let alone knew there were different gens
@@Erplane Lock picking lawyer is my basis for my statement. applying tension to the core binds up the square edged transfer bar therefore preventing you from applying pressure to the pins. If you are certain try it with the tool and post video.
@@renaissanceman5847 LPL picked a gen 3 himself; look for the video he posted June 14, 2019. You have to insert a shim on the side of the core to tension it, but you can still use the lishi
@@Erplane Yeah I saw the shim... I think he made extra room on the core to enable a thick enough shim that had sufficient spring force to apply pressure to the bar... new locks... there isnt enough room to get anything thicker than a sliver of spring steel about 0.010 inch thick, which doesntt apply enough force across the entire bar. once the lock is significantly worn (the bar recess in the body and the entrance gap) it works better. the lishi tool here is only used to decode using the wiggle test
they will work on smart locks, the only difference is as you are picking the pin slightly release tension as your picking each pin and reapply the tension once it is set and move on to the next one.timing is everything though as you are likely to have pins fall as you move to the next 1
The tool works to pick a lock but it doesn't give you the correct cut numbers to have a locksmith cut a new key. I bought a Master Lock version with only 4 pins and it gave me incorrect cut numbers.
If you say so. You're the expert, apparently.
I worked for a locksmith and he made thousands of dollars a day off these things. Lock your keys in your car? Give him literally 60 seconds tops. None of that squeezing through the window BS
how do you look at it and know its cut at 7,6,4,3,2 , zero explanation given.
if you do it long enough a quick glance is all you need to guess the depth of cut. That is actually one way criminals get access without force. If a person hangs their keys on their belt loop with keys exposed they take a picture and can then go home and cut or file a new key out of a blank.
Is that works on doorknob and padlocks?
they make different models for the different keyway/brand types. if you are wanting to open a MasterLock padlock and a Kwikset door you would need 2 different models of this tool.
cool, but what are u debunking?
Does this work for kwikset smart key double cylinder dead bolts? Both sides have key inserts?
It does but you need an additional tool to shim the sides of the smartkey internal bar. There are other videos on YT that show this.
This is because those people don't know how locks work that's why they say that it's faked or whatever
Gotta be camera tricks. Can't just be that those locks are super vulnerable to picking. ~ Rob
@@ITStactical lol all keyed locks are vulnerable to picking if the person has the knowledge and equipment to do the job people think to much of there $40 home depot deadbolt
@@newhouselockandkey I have seen the literal comment "try that on a deadbolt" and lost a bit of my soul on that one. ~ Rob
@@ITStactical my favorite is when people find out their sentry safe can be opened in less than a minute with a magnet

This is an old video, but I really don't get why this video has to exist in the first place. Are people really hurt so much over the fact that locks are vulnerable, that they have to deny that fact and need to be proven wrong? Penetration tools have come a long way and Lishi tools are a perfect example for that. Locks, especially commercial and widely available ones, are not safe and just devices to keep honest people honest. Deal with it and as a matter of fact Lishi tools are pretty slow. If people's mind are blown by those then I don't want to see their faces when someone opens their "good luck defeating that"-Lasertrak car lock with a jiggler tool in seconds...
Hi there, can you please make a video on how to pick Euro Cylinder locks using a Lishi Tool? I dont know which tool to purchase for Euro Cylinder locks.
Thank you very much :).
Nice ring 💍 Bling bling
Got it from a guy that rode hard until he snorted his way to unemployment. ~ Rob
Get 1 of these picks and you can "find" 1 for yourself
Is it really that easy or is this guy just a stud?
Want to sell out thousands+? Send me one and I'll pump it on social media. Tbh I'm going to purchase it regardless, but I know of a large demographic that would lose their fkn mind over this. Awesome product.
Do it!!! I can sell more high security locks, thanks to you shady folks.
WIll these work on 'real' locks (European style)? Like ABUS, BKS, CES etc?
Our locks work upside-down, have five or six pins, are very tightly packed, miniscule tolerances.
I am a DIY amateur and learned picking basic German locks with regular tools, fail on the BKS though. Pins can be pushed down by my tools, but do not bind at all, no twisting of the cylinder.
This 'Lishi' method looks cool, but how does the scale match varying pin distances of different manufacturers, how can it reach a sixth pin, how to use it upside-down on installed door locks with bottom stacks etc.? Lishi offers a plentitude of different tools; what is the difference between an SS001 and KW1 tool? Not much real info out there.
Not sure if I should dump $20 into such a thing to play with it, as cool as the idea of Mr. Li is.
Your 'real' locks are no different from the American locks. ABUS uses the schlage keyway, would be pickable with a SC1 or SC5, depending on if it is 5 or 6 pins.
Lichis are purpose built devices, so you need a unique tool for each style of keyway (sc for schlage, kw for kwikset, ss is some Chinese lock). Fortunately the majority of locks use only a handful of keyways, and the 6 pin lichis can be adapted to work with 5 pin locks, so you can get by with just a few of them (though it is still pricey).
To use it in a upside down lock, you just use it upside down.
What are you talking about "real"?
@@LoveOverwhelming "Real" meaning 'tight', precision cut with little tolerances, hard to pick, like BKS. Opposite to 'loose', with lots of tolerances, wobbly pins and fairly easy to pick. Like the U.S. locks I do remember from my time back in the U.S.A.
@@88BlueKeys4U The problem is, the start of your definition is objective, but the latter half is subjective. And wrong.
@@LoveOverwhelming My current collection of door locks includes only European made ones from different manufacturers. Some (especially BKS) are extremely tight and offer very little opportunity to unlock them with standard tools. I do remember the locks I had in the USA (usually the doorknob style), and they all were rather loose, noisy and fairly easy to manipulate. Their pins were not sitting very tight, were uneven in their spring reaction. So YES, my opinion is SUBJECTIVE, but it is true and based on my own findings. I did NOT buy the Lishi tool, prefer to use my variety of standard picking tools. I am no pro, just tinker for fun, learning about locks and picking methods, that's all.
Only down side to those things is they're expensive.
Take into consideration they are tools and figure out how many locks you have to open for them to pay for themselves in time and effort saved once you are comfortable with them.
@@timwolters3286 well of course, For a professional locksmith, these things make sense for what they do. But a casual lock sport person such as myself they're a luxury.
Just received my SC1 and KW1, 210 € for bullshit. Europe make better locks...
What is your Favorit 2 lishi tool now you can need in Eu ?
@@crookedtool?¿ ?! no 2,1 Million $)))?
You paid 210 for two Lishis?! 🤣🤣🤣
@@crookedtoollot of taxes...
Try one with a wider range of pins.
No u. ~ Rob
We use lishi picks all the time were I work to decode car locks and make keys. It is an amazing tool. They are not just for homes..
@@marinemike01 awesome thanks for the info. I had never seen anything like that before. I was having trouble raping my brain around it. I retired from the city and used to do a lot building security issues. I was just trained in basic locksmithing. I wanted to pursue more but could not find a locksmith that would take me as an aprintist.
That poor Lishi tool...
@@marinemike01 thank you for your response, I appreciate it.
This video has flaws, many. But it also shows how vulnerable the locks of regular houses and business are to the attacks of more and more shady people. The presenter makes inaccurate statements and uses non-lock-related nomenclature to describe lock and cylinder parts. His description of what the Lishi does is not correct, either. I will not correct him because there's no need to enhance the skills of non-professionals, like our presenter, here. I sell more and more high security hardware to people who finally realize that the number of shady people is increasing. One more comment. A zero-bitted cylinder will not simply turn by inserting the Lishi tool. I'd like to see the presenter prove that it does.
You have flaws, many
Les, please return when you are FULLY-witted. Half just isn't cutting it this time.
@@crookedtool come back with intelligence after you've used the tools as much as I have. 'Crookedtool' indeed.
Why would he need to prove something so ludicrous? You thought the video poster said a 0-bitted cylinder would "simply turn by inserting the Lishi tool?" 🤣 He said the "trolls" were accusing him of using something like a 0-bitted cylinder with the Lishi demo as if that matters. Then he said basically said those types of pin arrangements are easy to rake.
Your hands covered the middle of the screen. FAKE!!!!!!!!!!
jk. haha. Haters will hate. Good stuff!
What's the massive rush for? - you're demonstrating how not to use a Lishi pick, This will destroy the pick in no time at all. Also your technique wouldn't work on a lock with security pins, and you wouldn't stand a chance opening any laser-track car locks... Great speed open on a 5-pin, open profile, non-security pinned, mildly-bitted P.O.S lock though... (I'm being sarcastic btw)
You assumed he would apply this same technique to a lock with security pins? 🤣🤣🤣 In which ring do you perform? 🤡🤡🤡
this tool doesn’t need to be validated..Classic way to loose your audience is to waste peoples time
