The KW1 Lishi is for picking and reading 5 pin Kwikset locks and the KW5 is for 6 pin Kwikset picks.
The KW1 and KW5 picked the sample Kwikset locks as expected. One of the major advantages of the new Lishi Picks will be the ability to read the depths of the lock once it is picked and you will be able to make a key. However, if the locks have Master or construction pins the key will unlock and lock the lock but maybe not any other locks in the building. The New Lishi KW1 / KW5 picks are not designed and will not open Kwikset Smart Locks, yet lol.
The Lishi picks are well built and have a nice feel to them.
Picking method is classic Single Pin Picking (SPP). I do not foresee any problems with security pins, just will require a slightly different method of SPP to open. Actually, on Kwikset locks, I find them very easy to SPP security pins. (the binding pins cry out to be picked lol).
The new Mr. Lishi picks are expected to retail for $120 US each.
Mr. Lishi will soon release the Schlage SC1 5 pin and Schlage SC4 6 pin picks soon too.
Subscribe to my channel so you will get an update when I post the video of the new KW1 and KW5 in real field tests.

Lishi is a very good tool for locksmiths to figure out, because you have to use a Lishi tool and most the application you're basically feeling the wafers, you're going the binding wafer, you pick that one first and then you can go for the next binding wafer. That's how you use the Mr. Lishi tools for automotive. They've come out with fantastic tools, they've come out with four tools now. One for 5-pin quick set, the 6-pin quick set, also the 5-pin Schlage, and the 6-pin Schlage.
Single Pin Picking, SPP, or they like to call the field method or the French method. We'll call it the SPP for today.
Lishi's calling this their Residential Original Lishi Tools by Mr. Lishi. Their 2-in-1 picks, they work and I hadn't had a chance to try the Schlage I am looking forward to that. Lots of new videos coming soon.
Here's something interesting. A lot of people are saying, "Oh this is a game changer, this is a fantastic tool." Let's get right to the facts here. Kwikset five pin deadbolts, the pin tumbler deadbolts, are the easiest locks in the world almost to pick. I can show you in 10 to 15 minutes you're going to be able to pick these things and if you practice you're going to be really good. This is not a game changer. There have been some tools available to law enforcement that did something similar. However, this is an inexpensive tool and it's really cool, but here's what I think about what it's great for. It will give you the ability to learn to do single pin picking or SPP picking better.
You practice on the inexpensive locks and they have some other tools coming out, which will be for other locks, and they've already had one released in Australia for quite a while. It's an interesting tool, it's really cool, but it's not going to turn a lousy picker who can't pick a lock. You can't just pick this thing up and pick instantly. I can show you in minutes how to pick Kwiksets and if you practice you can pick them.
This is a fun tool and it reads, which sometimes when you have multiple locks it's nice to make a key quickly and you can open up the other locks, and it just shows you some huge security vulnerabilities. That's why we sell a lot of the high-security locks like Abloy, and Medeco, and the Primus. We sell a lot of high security locks because these are so easy to pick. We have key control in the high security locks, but you stop the amateurs who can pick those inexpensive locks quickly. Let's not even talk about the stuff that's coming in from Offshore Locks. This will be interesting. I'm going to play with the tool on the clones of the Kwiksets and let's see how it does on the SmartKey locks. The interesting thing with the SmartKey locks is they use a sidebar, they don't really have a sheer line like a pin tumbler.
This is going to be kind of fun to experiment with this with other locks it'll fit in. Of course it's not going to fit into the Schlage or Schlage. It's not going to fit into a lot of other locks. It'll do the Kwiksets for sure and it'll do Weiser.
![[379] Demo On How To Use The KW1 Lishi Tool](/img/n.gif)
as someone who has never picked before, never even attempted it, i tried one of these kw1 lishi tools and had 4 locks unlocked in under 10 minutes. I'd say it's a lot better than you give credit.
ironically as many times as you said how this isn't a game changer, your demo proved it's a game changer.
Yeah it literally is a game changer. Just alot of people disown these because they belive it's taking away from traditional lock picking skill. Not my words but others from many other comments from other lishi videos.
Game changer here for a guy with only one working hand.
im not even 4 minutes in and all i know is, "this is not a game changer, kwiksets are easy to pick"
I can see you are soo jealous I don't know why why it's completely game changer man
This tool saved me from losing my new job as a locksmith. Absolute gamechanger for me.
Chad “Fingers of Damnation” Fason But use it as a learning tool to make your lock picking with picks better.
Kwikset locks are super easy to pick with real picks and less expensive too.
Practice with the KW1 Lishi with locks with mushroom top pins don’t you can feel the counter rotation picking method.
@@24hrMrLocksmith which Lishi tool works for a Yale door nob lock
@@CarAngTube Yale has the Schlage keyway. Use the SC1
I'd fire you right away for picking a lock open!
I've been locksmithing for about 28 years and decided to buy a few differant lishi tools a few months back. And the only thing is I would say alot of them are game changers lol
Ive never picked a lock in my life and I picked 3 of them in 5 minutes with this tool. I’d call that a game changer. Tried picking the same locks with regular picking tools and instruction, took me 15 minutes to do 1
Practice, practice, practice.
You're a amateur
@24hrMrLocksmith I think the point is that it seriously negates the need for practice, some people prefer it for a skillset over a sport habit
I think the best way to describe this thing is that it gives you visual feedback on your tactile (feel) feedback. A way to visually record what you are feeling. A locksmith is just going to do it with the tactile feedback (feel) alone, because he doesn't need the visual feedback.
As someone that owns about 100 different lishi, it DEFINITELY a game changer. If i have a lishi for it, i will pick it 100%. No rake and pray, snap and pray, bump and pray. These work every time.
Lishi Automotive Picks are the best and safest way to open or read Automotive Locks.
AccuReaders are great too to "read" some locks.
I’ve picked 1 lock with a raking tool almost 10 years ago
I bought one of these and no lock in my house stood a chance
None of my locks gave me trouble and I picked them in no more than 2 minutes each
This tool really is a game changer
For anyone who might be interested, the actual vid starts at 5:20
OMG youre sooo right
thank you, the condescending nature of the massive intro was getting very old.
Thanks for helping avoid the rant.
Never mind the hissing audio an cringe picking dialog made me stop watching it....
Thanks! Your post is a real game changer.
Very good video, I am a locksmith retired. I started back in 1976 in NE. Back then they bid not have all of thee smart things they have
Today I have been retired for about 4 years now but like to keep up on some of the new things that come out.
Thanks
Remember it’s not a game changer 😂
Of course it's a game changer , there's no doubt ...
He's totally right about Kwiksets, though. Super easy to pick, even for a beginner.
Talks about how easy it is to pick and doesn't demonstrate a single time without the lishi tool. Video speaks for itself.
It is a game changer, not only because it picks, but it decodes.
weird first part of video till he began showing it. Its a game changer.
He finally shuts up and starts showing how to use it at 5:11
Good honest opinion and demo. When I visited the States, Kwiksets were disturbingly everywhere including at the AirBNB places we stayed at. :/
Thanks!
There's no point in arguing whether or not it's a "game changer". It's a pretty straight forward statement to prove or disprove:
Point me to another product that costs the same or less, enables somebody with 0 experience to SPP locks with security pins with virtually 0 training, _and_ decodes the bitting.
The lishis are great. Your right they don't fix bad picking. But. They have solved issues with problem Locks that have some rust and gunk from weather for me in the pacific northwest areas that have alot of rain, plus they decode.... so... total win. The sc1 lishi has save me a handful of times especially when it gets cold out.
Best lock pick tool for houses, buildings? Need a good one for my bug out bag in case things go bad
You can never underestimate a lock. Iv'e come across quicksets that have been very challenging and some that take seconds. So many factors but this guy doesn't give these tools the credit they deserve. TRY ONE>
Saves time. You don't even have to take the lock off. Just cut the key by code and done.
I've been breaking into homes with a lock picking gun for about 5 years now. I recently tried this tool and have had success getting into deadbolts in under 10 seconds. Now I can do my job in broad daylight since it is fast enough to look like you are using a key. My freedom is a testament to this tool.
2 minutes in and I'm like STFU! Next...
these look cool, my only problem is i'm left handed, so i tend to practice picking with my left hand haha
Lishi has a few left handed models.
Thanks for being honest. I bought a couple for Schlage locks. I can rake the locks open but cannot pick them with this tool.
This is a game changer! I've made so much money...only because of these!
Locks keep honest people honest, most criminals won't take the time to play with a lock. They tend to use the path of least resistance i.e windows or kicking down doors. For you to tell people not to use a product based solely on your opinion is wrong, that's how you get the gullible clientele to purchase medeco, mul T lock, assa abloy, or any other high security locks that would be ignored because of an easier entry point. I do agree that the aforementioned deadbolts are easy to pick, but so are schage, best sfic, faclon, and any other lock if you're up to date on your picking practice.
I am in the Netherlands , but we have here house-locks that are much better than most in america.
anDarkangel Europe is way ahead of North American Locks.
This was never meant to be a pick. It was built as a decoder. Its a game changer.
Remember seeing these but it wasn’t called a lock pick, but it used a term “lock decoder”
they do both. it can decode the lock after you pick it. that's what actually makes it a game changer in my opinion. you can make a key for one without taking it apart. like if someone broke their only key, you can make them a new key within about 5 minutes.
Came for the instruction, left because of the endless review
Lol ZERO lockpicking experience here. Tried one of these a friend had on my house's deadbolt (Schlage), and I was able to pick it 10 times out of 13 (counted attempts). Not knowing about anything like tension etc. he explained to me it had 2 serrated pins and 1 spool pin after all attempts (whatever those are). All he explained was to just be gentle and if it's hard to push just LET UP slightly on tension and push again until it clicks (no matter how loud, just stop after clicking and keep going 1-2-3-4-5). I'd say that's a "game changer" when just the one/two sentence of basic advice let me open the lock to my house with a ~75% success rate.
5 minutes of rambling, before he even uses the tool titled
Thank you now i can break in any house with no problem. Good game changer.
Video starts at +5:10
they make them for car doors. Lockpickinglawyer used these for picking a car door i think. i still dont understand how they work but seems cool.
How do you not understand how they work.. this video gave a pretty detailed explanation but just looking at it is pretty obvious how it works
Cool Gizmo ! Lishi stuff is very neat !
Chris Fyfe Fun Lishi video soon, just made keys to a Ford and used the Lishi pick.
What first occurred to me, is it gives you the measures it makes for a key. And the key can be from a soda bottle, a pair of scissors, and time. If you don't want to use the time to just keep using it to pick the lock.
well thanks Mr. Locksmith for crapping on my
party!!!! I thought I was going to buy these tools and pick fort knocks... u ranting?yes u are pal lol... grate job Terry now go have a beer and relax
I use Lishi, for Commercial and Residential locks when all else fails.
However, for Automotive use get every Lishi you can afford.
"SPP Picking:.. yesss...
I can pick knobs with regular pins but can’t pick spool pin lock I guess I’m not good at all
Pretty nice tool but I taught my grand kids who had never picked a lock started to pick quickset in less than 20 minutes..
Also congratulations on over 100,000 subscribers
Thanks!
I just need to know if this is a game changer?
It's a game changer period
Lishi use begins at 5:00
Im going to try and make my own . get a blank cut to lowest depth. Get a some picks. Attach to metal plate- and torque.
Get to the picking part!
Quickset should sponsor this guy.
. its sole purpose is not to pick. It is made to save time and not to have to take lock apart to make key.. so yeah think lishi picks are a game changer especially for the automotive line of locks.
"It's *NOT* a game changer*
*60 seconds later*
"[It's a game changer - the pick and the decoder are built into one.. It's almost like it's a 2-1 tool, now that's a game changer]"
Yeah... Almost like it should say 2-in-1 pick on the side or something........ :|
can you still lock the door with that pick lock?
@@charlesguionnet1800 You can pick it locked or unlocked. Sometimes you have to pick doors “locked.”
I have a question Sir..
If I open my door & lock it ( it's a deadbolt ) then I can pick it open in seconds, but, if I close the door & lock it... I can't pick it.
Why is that?
You seem more educated about picking than some others... they won't even answer me back.
Maybe pressure on the deadbolt from the strike or door frame.
A new Mic is a game changer.
Take a shot everytime he says game changer.
I bought it n I followed ur instructions but it didn’t open anything
i want this tool please send the link buy this tool
Ok, it works on the deadbolt, but what about the doorknob?
Super easy
@@24hrMrLocksmith I had one and I got the mechanism to turn, but the twisting part of the lock itself (on the inside) would not unlock nor would the knob turn. Any idea what I did wrong?
@@24hrMrLocksmith Cool
I just got my Lishi pick today. I'm having a hard time trying to pick the pins. Any tips?
Get a simple lock to start practicing on.
$10 lock from Home Depot.
@@24hrMrLocksmith I have the m1 Lishi pick
A gamechanger
i never knew lockpicking is a seperate field altogether
It’s nice because you can pick and read it which is money
Loves the sound of his own voice lockpicking lawyer be nice for him to review.
You tell this man I just won the lottery..."it's not game changer" smh
i see you opening the locks with it...but is it possible to close the lock also ?
What about the "smart" kwikset system? Can you picked with that Lishi tool?
is it only for dead bolts? i was practicing on my bedroom door and im better off sticking a card in between the door and knob. lol
That looks like a very nice tool but I don’t think it would be good for people to rely on thank you for your video
Great info, how easy to get into ones lock. Makes me think. However if they want in there are other more destructive ways.
Are kwikset’s easy to pick?
Does it really need to be KW1 or you can also get kw5 ? thank you
KW5 is a 6 pin and sometimes wont fix into a 5 pin
Got mine today! I was sooo excited to finally have one of these.. talk about the biggest disappointment in my life. I attempted to do a single lock and it failed to do so. The icing on the cake: the pick is also destroyed now. Talk about a one time use tool.. sad it didn't even get the job done once though smh =(
You probably used too much turning tension on the tool. This is a common problem for novices. Use minimal turning tension.
I think you are right on the money there. It is a gimmick I a way and it won't open All kwikset locks.
Learning to use picks is better I my opinion.
Also if the lock is weathered this tool could be prone to snapping the tips like on the car locks when locksmiths use too much pressure.
Let's see how the Lishi KW1 holds up on the road.
When decoding for key cutting, if the depth is "in between" (2) gauge numbers
(ie) The pin is reading between depth #4 and #3.
Do you use the top depth gauge number (4) for key cutting?
My question to you is it seemed my lishi pick still came with a tension wrench if it's not needed than why was it included? Thought s please thank you
As a locksmith, I honestly don't know why this tool exists in Kwikset EXCEPT as an SPP training tool, or maybe just proof of concept.... Kwikset pin tumbler doesn't even deserve to be touched by even my old HPC or ProLok hooks from 15 years ago, that I never use anymore because now I've got better picks. LOL... Rake it and be done in 30 seconds..... The Lishi auto tools are AWESOME, and for some of the others, the SC1/SC4 and new AM5 I get it, not because they're typically hard to pick, but because SOMETIMES they CAN be, and anything that makes that process faster, means I get paid faster. I honestly DID buy the SC1 Lishi SPECIFICALLY for those PITA Schlage F series levers, (one of the banes of my life) and while getting the counter rotation JUST right is STILL a PITA with them, it makes it a LITTLE easier... and I think once I get it down pat 100% I might be done popping covers with comb picks once and for all. I MIGHT get the AM5, simply because instead of having to control a padlock, tension tool, and pick all at once, I can just control the padlock and tool, and for the decoding without disassembly of course. If they SOMEHOW manage to come up with a Y1/Y2 I will be the FIRST in line.... but I REALLY don't get spending $120 to pick Kwiksets.
You just said... The same thing he said.
WHAT THE FUCK ?
Is there a lishi picker for a CES LOCK
Can this be used on a Yale lock if not what set can do then thank you
Just wondering... is it cool? is it a gamechanger?
The first 5 minutes or so struck me as being an advertisement/commercial. And as for the remainder; what took you so long to get to the point.
Is there one for commercial locks
I should add I do commercial leasing lol
Lots of new picks, Schlage, etc.
Terry you are right kwickset are the easiest lock to pick but what would be interesting is if you were the first one to
Pick a kwickset smart key on video I would by your lockpicking video now that's a game changer.
Lots of Smart Key picking videos. Testing some new Smart Key picking methods now. Maybe a few videos soon.
I love the vehicle lishis, have yet to buy a commercial or residential lishi. Looking forward to owning one
We have these locks normal lock pick open, lock open with a perforation?
Would be awesome, unrelated to leshie! If this came with instructions please! Unrelated aswel, correct? :)
Which vision do I need for doors
Hi, congratulations on achieving 100,000 subscribers, this tool definitely does a good job in showing how these locks are having security issues, is Kwikset's SmartKey series of locks going to be safe from attacks applied on it using this Lishi tool?
The Smart Key locks require a different technique with the Lishi KW1. Still figuring out how to explain it for teaching. Smart Key locks can be raked open but SPP requires different techniques almost like picking spool pins x5 x3. More videos coming.
What is the best locks possible and most secure, bump proof and possibly unreachable without drilling...?
assa , meddeco
Lazaro Martinez Abloy Protec 2. See my YT video
Thanks 👍👍
Lazaro Martinez Take a look at Bowley locks
Thanks Mal
I bought it and it’s hard to use
Practice, practice, practice...
does it work on kwikset smartlock
Idan Ghelber You need to apply pressure to the sidebar with the Kwikset Smart Key Locks. Without side bar pressure the KW1 Lishi will not pick the lock. Raking a Smart Key lock, (rake pick and tension wrench) with practice, you can pick a Smart Key lock open. Video soon.
@@24hrMrLocksmith I think I understand what you are saying. Basically like you would rake open a ignition for GM correct? Wow if it is that easy I should have been picking these a long time ago.... I just need to find a tool I can jam in there to hold down the side bar I guess, looking forward to the next video.

03:04 I'm a locksmith. Picked my first lock over 40 years ago. I'll say Kwikset locks can be difficult to pick. Then again, I work in the rain, mud, sleet, frozen ice and blizzards. Locks I work on get punished by weather and sun. Therefore they can be weathered and become difficult to pick. Yes, even the easiest locks can be difficult at times to pick. I'll say it. Maybe others won't. Heck, I've worked on Kwiksets that refused to be picked. It happens. So I never assume anything with a lock. I'll work on it and if it decides not to pick, then I may pull out the drill and drill the lock. Over the years, I've met locksmiths who have claimed to always succeed in picking locks until I test them. Then, they suddenly fail and the truth comes out. Ego is not needed in this job. It gets in the way. Locksmithing is a tedious job. It requires lots and lots of patience. If you're not a patient person, this skilled trade isn't for you. This is my experience after decades of picking.
People who say they can pick every lock and never have to drill are not telling the truth or only do one locksmith job a month :-)
Does this lishi kwikset 2in1 pick work on all residential 5pin locks or just kwikset?
Elizabeth Mayhew The KW1 Lishi pick only works on the 5 pin Kwikset locks and clone (off shore) 5pin locks using the KW1 keyway. Also, with an adjustment with your picking method it will pick open 5pin Weiser locks but not read the lock.
@@24hrMrLocksmith okay thanks for the advice!
I wonder if this is a game changer
I can't ordered..
video starts @5:13
Do they make these for kwikset 6 pin locks?
hi. im also a locksmith but i do it manually doorknob/lock car/vault/duplicating. ummmh i forgot what i want to ask. bawi nlng
