LPL, as you stated, there are a lot of lock picking instructional vids here on UA-cam. Yet few are made by guys that have the talent of being naturally talented teachers. Personally, I'd love to see a lockpicking series of videos starting from "this is a pick" and going through to advanced topics, made by you. You really have the natural teaching talent. I've been an instructor pilot serving as a sim instructor, line check airman and giving Initial Operating Experience qualifications to airline pilots for 20 years. Why do I mention this? I know how to spot good teachers. : )
He’s positively eloquent, and VERY precise. Which is something that is severely lacking in normal discourse these days. He is a great teacher, no wasted words but fun and funny, but covers everything and makes it interesting. After watching a number of his videos now, the last months, and given his UA-cam name, if he is indeed a lawyer as well, he would be my first choice as a lawyer. Seems like he most likely is an excellent,,prepared and knowledgeable lawyer. As an added dividend, even if you get convicted, he can show you how to get out :-)
2022: "This is the LockPickingLawyer and today I'm going to create a series of videos, that show cutaway locks." Later: "This is the LockPickingLawyer and today I'm going to be picking the lock on this Delorian, so that I can go back to 2015 and make a cutaway video about paracentric keyways."
That video is just fantastic. This simple idea to just cut away the have of the plug to see you self picking and learning fro it is great. Will do cut-aways from some from my euro cylinders. Very valuable info and demonstration. Thank you.
@@lockpickinglawyer Just come from todays vid, 5:32 not what she said. Someone had to lol great tutorial watched this one on release never commented though.
Thanks LPL! I just started this addictive and fun hobby and this is this exact explanation/ instruction I needed. I love your videos and I'm glad you're making a living off lock picking.
Some very good points, and a subject I've never seen addressed before, very good description with the cutaway plug. Thanks for taking the trouble, even us Locksmiths can learn something new. Well done.
+Brian Hignett Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. This was something that I struggled with when I first started -- so much so that I actually PMed a couple of the more prolific UA-cam pickers who made instructional videos, and suggested that a video discussing how to deal with tough warding was needed. No one stepped up to fill the gap, so I did. My channel doesn't get the traffic that others do, but at least its out there if someone goes out looking for the information.
@@lockpickinglawyer 2016: "My channel doesn't get the traffic that others do, but at least its out there if someone goes out looking for the information." Later: "This is the LockPickingLawyer and today I'll be unlocking the UA-cam algorithm."
Here from 2021... are we sure this is the same guy? :) This version of LPL sounds scared to be on video! If I only we could let him know what a legend he'll become.
My word, this stuff might be years old and the production value is so different, and this is a baby LPL by today's standards, but this information is still gold! Thanks LPL!
I know this is an older (but very useful) video and i am very impressed with the way a cut-a-way lock demonstrates how the right pick makes such a huge difference between getting the lock open or not. Awesome video! Thanks lpl.
I love this video because you not only showed how narrow keways can be overcome, but you also showed the cutout...how the inside of that type of lock works.
Great video!! As a beginner I struggled for so long with a S schlage keyway until I mastered it and I until seeing this video was scared to face anything more parametric than that, now I feel confident and am going to buy a steep hook or 2 :D
Thanks. I was a bit intimidated by the SC keyway in the very beginning as well... I made this video because I wish it was out there when I started picking.
Oh thank you for that bit of explanation! I've been having problems with even Schalge C keyways and a 0.015... time to vise up some hunks of brass and get picking! :)
This is so helpful. As a new lock picker I have been trying to work my pick around the wall of the warding to reach the pins on really tight paracentric keyways. I will now re evaluate my approach 👍🏻
Awesome, this worked very well for me, I was just able to open my EVVA lock which I was never able to open before. This just took me to the next level man, thank you so much!! Btw, no master pins in my lock!
I got my Covert Instruments' companion to learn to pick, but all I had were Aussie Lockwood and Able locks... thought I was just never going to work it out. So I got a cheap Master lock, managed to rake and pick that consistently after a few days of intermittent attempts. In fact, it's kinds almost too easy to open that lock if you shove anything into it (nice one Master locks!). That got my confidence up a bit. But still was stuck with the tight keyways on the Lockwoods. This video cracked it for me... now I can feel the pins and start getting better at this with trickier locks!
Absolute great advice :) and very nice to see with the cutaway lock. I think I will have to make me a number 7 hook and try it out ;). Thank you so much. Also never seen a green Peterson in 0.015...always thought they were blue.
This is like... INSANELY obvious. I don't mean that as a slight towards you; you're awesome for realizing this and putting the knowledge out there. I'm just kind of blown away that nobody considered that the thickness is not the issue [compared to the length/shape]. How is that possible?! I feel like it might be one of those rare situations where something is actually _more_ obvious to a total noob than it is an expert (for whatever reason)
Loved this video. Started picking a few days ago with the Lokko Beginner's Box over on Lockpickworld, and was having a TON of trouble trying to do anything in an American 1100. Tension bars were too thin and favored BOK tension, couldn't rake it, and my only 2 hooks were shallow and thick. I ordered a Sparrows Spirit Set, some TOK tension bars, and some thin SSDeV hooks. We'll see how that 1100 fares against those, though you could probably pick it with a paperclip.
Every time I watch you nowadays I get an advertisement for the British “Kinetica K4” lock. You won’t see this comment on such an old video but I would love to see you get into one
I rarely comment but your videos are truly dumbfounding. I had a feeling this ^ is the case but you've helped me confirm solidly. Of course a cylinder must fit through a hole Most of your material has gems all over. I come to learn one thing and then I learn 10. If you will have me as a student (or protege if you have none) I also (whether you decide to accept my request or not) I respect and look up to you and will be happy to be of any service. Anything you need done in the UK, let me know. (Free of charge of course, if I haven't made it clear enough; it would absolutely be my pleasure)
+vde Thanks. I wish that I could give you more information about the path it took, but as much as I hate to say it, I forget how this one made its way to me. Check out my pick and gut video on it from a couple months ago. I think Bosnian Bill has the other half of this lock, at least he did a video of a similar ALS with the exact same bitting a good long time ago.
I was actually worried you were feeling ill or something, the flair and enthusiasm you developed in later videos just wasn’t there in this one, didn’t realize it was such an early vid (especially since it was showing cutaways, which you’ve been doing a lot recently).
I hate when people say they won’t / avoid covering stuff other people have covered. Your audience likes you, the way you explain things, your tempo, your demos, etc. so even if you cover the same content someone might learn better from you. And that’s not even accounting for whether they’ll discover those other sources, whether they’ll still be available years later, etc.
+Hugo Martel Very glad to help. Good work on the Yale. IMO, Y1 is actually harder than many of the crazy/unusual warding locks that I have made videos of.
Great video with a different approach to help me with picking. One thing my bangood set doesnt seem to have is a pick like the ones you showed. In fact not a whole lot of reach on the hooks i have but great set for me to learn with. Ill try add a few bits soon. This will help me figure out what to get,thanks👍
This only really works with the wardings that the pins go through, not ones which the pins rest on or above. One of my old door locks has a Yale(ish) keyway where the bottom right warding is blank, so is the left warding, with the pins seemingly only resting on it or descending into it a bit from the other side. So I have to go in at an angle resting on the bottom right warding and the top tail then gets in the way of any deep pick. It's a nasty bugger (but I'm sure that you'd be able to pick it no fuss anyway).
Superb video sir. I think the pictures on the websites are misleading which I know caused me to have doubts in exploring picks outside of my gem and hook 1 but I took your advice and am now finding myself having a hard time putting the hook 7 down. I also had no idea they have it in 0.025 and I was even told by their rep that they don't so how did you get it? You also gotta tell me about the other high hooks you have, anything worth trying to the 7 is above the all? I know you go for the 7 in almost all of your videos but I'll ask just in case.
+norwoodgolf8 He shows a hook 5 in his video and a hook 7 is a hook 7 no matter what thickness at least that is what all logic seems to suggest. Ill give them a call and post the results.
+Papa Gleb Sorry for creating confusion. I was incorrect to call the .025" version a 7 Hook. It is actually a 4 Hook, as Norwood states. It is dimensionally the same or very, very similar to the 7 Hook. Its been so long since I ordered it that I forgot about that little quirk in Peterson's naming scheme. Usually, they will call a pick like, for example, the Gem, the same thing in all three thicknesses. For reasons that escape me, Peterson calls the pick I was using a 7 Hook in .015" and .018", but uses a different name in .025". Again, my apologies.
Everyone wave if you came here from the CES keyway video! LPL, did you have a sore throat when doing this video, you sound so much better in your other videos?

Learning how to pick locks from a lawyer... fascinating! 😄
I have watched a lot of your videos and this has been one of the most useful. Unfortunately I need to buy yet more picks!
Thank you. Yes, many keyways are flat out intimidating visually. But I would agree, use the right tool for the job.
Great video, I had some real eyeopeners. I'm going straight back to my locks and practice what I just learned.
Excellent explanation - guess I need some more picks
Great work, thanks
Any excuse to get some more picks is a good one.
Excellent explanation. Seems a lock maker could make the lock nearly unpickable if there was a second keyway halfway down the cylinder.
You truly should write a book on the subject, I've as yet to see any print books that more than scratch the surface of the field (hobby).
Not the production value of your new videos, but more informative than most.
You hit a home run on this one. Awesome video with great content!
