The Lock Blocker and Access Denial

Today, Pat talk solo about a new product from Southern Specialties (LockPickTools.com) called "The Lock Blocker." While the UTAC curriculum is maindly designed around the concepts of Gaining Access, Keeping Access, and Sharing Access, the Lock Blocker represents an important but not often discussed concept called Denying Access.
In today's after show, Dave tries to give Pat nightmares, and it gets off track. Remember* UTAC's After Shows are not where we hide our super-secret tactical info behind a paywall, it's where we hide our worst content behind a paywall; just us being us with no script and often about things of no tactical value! If you want access to this after show, and all of our previous after shows, visit us at Patreon.com/UTAC and support us at anything above the $2 level.

I think I first heard about these generic “most keyways” (which probably means anything except crazy-paracentric :) disablers when Covert Instruments came out with their “lock harpoon” several months back. Very happy to see these available as a stand-alone easily-carried tool separate from their Covert Companion Mega Tool 😊

Yeah Boris! Motel Keys by Sparrows are geared to 4 keyways: Schlage, Weiser, Kwickset, Yale. I like the idea of Lock Blocker as you get 4 that are not keyway specific so if you need to leave one behind you still have 3 more to use. You also get to use it on padlocks. In my fantasy, it can be used for escape from baddies to secure the door behind you as you go. It is not a lock pick, so will be legal even in places where lock picks are not. The best reason to have one on you...to counter other people using a Lock Blocker on you!

Keep those in my wallet. Such a small tool, is great for denial, harassment, etc..
