There's a particular song running through my head after watching the video and reading the line you quoted from it. It's a country song, so it may not be your cup of tea, but it goes something like this. "I've come from a long line of losers Half outlaws, half boozers" I do particularly like the drinking game aspect he mentioned. haha
@@nikel- Look at that! He didn't even need to get the name right and people still got the joke! One can kind of assume that this person is some sort of chessmaster lol

Marketed to college students as a drinking game. How long before campus security finds someone on the square without any clothes on, in February, drunk.
I recommend the youtube video ' I made a bolt with MAZE threads - Don't strip these threads! - Can you solve the puzzle? ' - which is somewhat related - nice brass rotary maze. A quality metal version would be neat.
"Would have made a great drinking game back in college". Ah the gold standard for kids games. Reminds me of great times destroying my liver with Looping Louie, a game marketed 4 years and up, and sold almost exclusively to 20-somethings ^^
I'm crying in laughter, this lock which is not even pretending to be a lock, but a puzzle game! takes longer to pick then the most locks LPL features here!
A combination lock with unknown combination is a puzzle. A puzzle with known solution is a lock. Example: A puzzle box becomes a lock box once you know the solution.
Imagine the family gatherings as they play this..i can hear round the table go "nothing on one...click outta two, three is binding" and LPL sits there smirking 🤣
plastic is not robust enough for the stress escape rooms are under... but you are right: That in a more massive version! Even the safety overwrite would be part of the game: Only one person needs to unlock him self and can then (using both hands) bypass the cuff of the other players.
@@nitehawk86 Very true, that should be the goal of any lock, really. I just find all these people saying "it's better than a Masterlock" disingenuous. There's an old saying in security: "The safest safe is an inaccessible box." But that box, like these handcuffs, can't be accessed by the legitimate owner (very well), so it's pointless.
To be fair I doubt anyone here is actually serious about that. This is a video about a kids toy lockpicking game after all. I mean yeah masterlock is bad and its become a running joke, but still a masterlock is better then this on a gate.
Trap difficulty: Have a set of cartridges where one of them actually has no path to the exit. Watch in frustration as everyone else solves before you, then you have to get the pick back out to use the failsafe eject.
actually a pretty cool concept for a game, but I think it'd have more family appeal if it was picking open little treasure chests than getting a shackle off of your wrist
College drinking games.... ah, memories of electronic Simon. Bonus if you're playing drunk with the room lights off so the game lights are more intense.
I'd be interested to see you try it with the right hand locked. Considering your skills, picking with left might be a nice extra challenge. Maybe an idea for a short?
My wife and I went and bought this game from eBay after seeing your video. We're currently at our anniversary retreat, and we've opened it and played a few rounds. Thanks for the laughs.
*Real, regulation S&W, Peerless-type handcuffs can be unlocked with a straightened out paperclip slipped into the ratchet teeth slot/sleeve. Or bend the tip, 90 degrees, if they're double-locked.*
Amazing game! My 6yo (now 23) has been playing this with me for over 17 years!! Although after 45 minutes he seemingly didn't enjoy it anymore, I know as a father what's best for my child, and the most important lesson my own father used to teach me: _'You can't always get what you want'._
That was my first thought, too. I thought maybe there would be some clever interaction between each lock and the cartridge, so that the same cartridge would feel different in each lock, bringing the number of hard variations from 5 to 20, but I guess not :)
Rated LPL 11-23 seconds. Woot. I took one of the Covert Instruments FNG kits to a small gathering tonight, to show it to a friend with an interest in lockpicking. He liked it, but a lady there saw us with it and asked to borrow it to show to her kids. One of her friends also wanted one for her kids. I think the FNG kits have a better market in the kid-lockpicking space than this game does.

It's funny because I've seen him open a Master Lock faster than this toy. I'm looking at you Master Lock 👀
I was just coming to mention this xD
O_O Don't look too hard, their locks might open.
You beat me to it.
Real talk though....
Damn, I was gonna make the same joke
Funny how this child's toy puts up more of a fight than a Masterlock does.
A child's toy doesn't have to worry about being fast to open for the real keyholder
the most panic inducing toy ever
The top 3 comments all mention Master lock. 😆
stoooop giving them ideas 😵💫
@@sorin_markov I child's toy doesn't need to worry about lock security either. Yet here they are providing more security than any Masterlock does.
This toy lock seems like it holds up better than a masterlock!
😂
Takes longer to pick too
@@Arch3r666
You beat me to it. When I looked and saw there were 46 comments already, I knew I was too late. LOL, better than a master lock
Besides the obvious 'flaw' where you can remove the toy lock's core using only your fingers :)
With a Masterlock, you at least need a rake or shims.

How the hell would you know if it's a newborn, and how is that anywhere close to relevant here?

I've always speculated that LPL's favorite fun time is when Mrs. LPL brings out the handcuffs.
It's his favorite activity, for sure, but not for the reason that she'd be interested.
Probably rope not cuffs, he'd unlock the cuffs way too quickly.
I might suggest it's when he says, "Now to show you the first time was not a fluke...."

I could see a “real” version of this game showing up in the Covert Instruments store in the next few months… and honestly I’d probably buy it.
Marketed to college students as a drinking game.

"Adult" drinking game version.
There must be countless ways to co-opt a CI practice set into a drinking game.

This is the first LPL video that I remember where he didn't say "Nothing on one. Click out of two." 😀
You don't get that on the wave, comb, and bypass ones though.
That is because this lock is not a pin-tumbler style lock, which usually gets that kind of commentary.
Don't forget the one where he had his expertise challenged by another locksmith in regards to a bike lock. He just blasted through that one.
Or suggest it might be a Fluke.
Imagine the family gatherings as they play this..i can hear round the table go "nothing on one...click outta two, three is binding" and LPL sits there smirking 🤣
I bet someone could 3D print a much harder insert. Neat idea. As a drinking game, you are spot on.
As someone with a 3d printer, I'm considering buying a set so I can do just that.
@@mightyflamberge713 Make up an OpenSCAD script perhaps?

I feel like this was a fairly one sided family game night
I had to make sure it wasn't April. Great laughs, and took longer than a Master Lock :-D
Same here. lmao
This guy is entertaining.
Looks like you could 3d print some new cartridges if you want to mix it up more.
Trap difficulty: Have a set of cartridges where one of them actually has no path to the exit. Watch in frustration as everyone else solves before you, then you have to get the pick back out to use the failsafe eject.
You teaching your son lock picking is very wholesome.
Especially to get out of handcuffs
Wholesome Detroit fun
It’ll be LockPickingLawyer Jr.
No wonder his son is good at lockpicking, considering how good he is solving a rubik's cube
It would be cool if someone 3D printed some more cartridges at the different difficulties like an expansion pack
actually a pretty cool concept for a game, but I think it'd have more family appeal if it was picking open little treasure chests than getting a shackle off of your wrist
And then you can hide goodies inside.
I was expecting the 'Covert "Break-Free" Companion' tool to come out 🤣

...this is why, on our next family games evening, I am bringing an iron cuffs with padlocks for everyone to enjoy.
"Ruprecht, do you want the g-----l cuff?"
Easy, just use a strong magnet
My wife and I went and bought this game from eBay after seeing your video. We're currently at our anniversary retreat, and we've opened it and played a few rounds. Thanks for the laughs.
And now we 3D-print a black cartridge with a maze without exit 🤔😁
They also offer "Diamond Heist" and "Operation Escape Room" in their line of games.
That is such an adorable game, though, if my family had this when I was little, they probably have gotten sick of it.(I love mazes)😂
Yeah, if you're good at bar puzzles, this will be a breeze.
"3 is binding, a little click out of 4 and we got this open"
Glad to see Masterlock improving their lineup
I gotta go grind concrete for 8 hours, keep up your grinding everybody.
I wonder what picking skills will his son develop by having such a good picking teacher as daddy 🤔
WE MAKING IT OUT OF POLICE CUSTODY WITH THIS ONE FELLAS!!! 🔥🔥 🔥 💯 💯 💯
Immune to wave raking and jiggling. Better than a lot of the locks featured on this channel
Harder to pick than than Master Locks.
It's tougher to open than most Master Locks 😂

There needs to be a “Lockpicking Lawyer” Edition of this game. 😊
LPL should make his own "Drop in Core" Handcuff locking picking game! 🔐
They take longer to open than a master lock
This is hilarious - i agree with the comments that you pick real locks faster than this kids game. Well done LPL.
"me AND my son can get this open pretty quickly".
Dad, you have created a monster.
the masterlock jokes basically write themselves at this point.
crazy part. These toys take longer to unlock than some expensive locks LPL picks.
Still better then a master lock
*Real, regulation S&W, Peerless-type handcuffs can be unlocked with a straightened out paperclip slipped into the ratchet teeth slot/sleeve. Or bend the tip, 90 degrees, if they're double-locked.*
I just love your humor.
Thank You
These things are more secure than many real locks
Damn, I almost choked on laughter after that intro😆
I have learned that cops hate it when you hand their cuffs back to them after they illegally detain you. SERE was really fun for me.

Oh wow, we had this toy, it's been around a while, neat concept but kids learn it off by heart way too fast :D

I've played this! It's actually pretty fun. Didn't think about the drinking game possibility!
Great Christmas gift idea for my kid though, thank you LPL

Can you do it with two chained together, one on each wrist, hands behind your back?
I would have paid Mayweather pay-per-view rates to watch you guys play this game. 😂
The intro speech is just outa this world!!!
Thank you!
Nice to hear you brought your kid into your hobby. Always a great thing
Here we see a children's game defeating master lock.
I really like how it takes you much longer to pick these locks than most actual locks.
Lock manufacturers, watch and learn 😆
Introducing the newest Master Lock model this one with a new record for how long it takes to open
I've seen LPL having less trouble with masterlock than than these toys cuffs
Great video and very informative.

Shame this takes you longer than some pro locks for sale, they've got to up their game, thank you for your service LPL

I was 100% expecting it to pop in less than three seconds.
I see this as a great start to learning lock picking for kids. I also see a potential to 3d print harder inserts as well then the reds become to easy.
Honestly have seen Master locks with less security on this channel - maybe they could learn from this?
probably not, they don't care enough for that
Great guide for kids who get handcuffed by their slave owners for not doing chores
Noooo, I was waiting for the "so you can see its not a fluke" moment! 😂

Masterlock are looking at the security with awe 😆
Oh goodie, a game I can add to my 'not a fluke' drinking game.
This is a great way to get your kids into the sport of picking! I love this so much
Still more secure than Master Lock padlocks.
Going straight for the red cartridge, now hes just showing off...
That’s nifty, great video!😸
Excellent!
I can think of a couple of my grandkids who would enjoy this.👍
I recently taught a friends children, 12 year old boy & 14 year old girl, lock picking. Half a dozen padlocks mostly masterlock.
Mrs. LPL would've had an easier time if she didn't brute force that Ben and Jerry's lock.
Totally Agree on That
Appreciate seeing a unique game.
The opening line of this video is comedy gold.
Master lock needs to call these guys for tips. 😂😂
You just knew the comparison to a Masterlock was going to be inevitable.
Need to add to LPL store for the holidays
The scary thing is that it took you less time to open certain real locks!
Cracking game, I bought it, and played it with family this afternoon 👍
Great video!
