It should be quicker, if he started with the keys separated, and left each one in the lock after unlocking. Still an interesting challenge though, if kept on the key ring.
This was really fun to watch. Well, I'm blind, so I guess I should say it was fun to listen to. I'm just getting into picking, and despite the blindness, I'm actually progressing okay. Nothing remarkable (yet), but I'm keeping up with my peers. Anyway, this was fun, and very well done. Love your videos, man.
I love how well some blind people are able to get on on the internet now thanks to accessibility toolkits. My favourite anecdote in this vein is the world of warcraft player who's active in a raiding guild and is completely blind.
Outstanding! Because of you I decided to start lock picking. I successfully picked my first Master Lock yesterday (3/03/20). Thank you for the inspiration!
You beat my 4:44 lock picking challenge video I posted awhile back lol I have learned a lot from your videos especially with American locks. Keep up the amazing work and keep them coming.
so, i did a bit of a trial myself to this vid. i picked my easiest 140 along with you. you got 16 locks open before i could pick mine just under 5 times (had one spool to go). unbelievable. hope to get there someday. thanks for the inspiration and unneeded humbleness. haha. great video as usual sir.
one reason i hate and love this hobby. i have gotten every lock i own open at least once, but i have to do it twice in a row for me to say it is successful. i have an 'ace' lock that has 3 serrated and two serrated spools that i can pick, but i have a master 140, a ruger lock, an ace (that looks like a 140) that i can't get. gotten them once, but that is it. they are way 'easier' locks to most, but i can't seem to get them open after the first lucky pick, yet i can get a security lock with all security pins. makes no sense. love to keep trying though. can be frustrating, but rewarding when you finally get it (not that i have/will). love the vids man.
I've definitely noticed what you're referring to regarding the short driver pins on some #3s. A #3 was one of the first locks I tried to pick, and I was unsuccessful until after I had already been picking much "harder" locks.
That doesn't surprise me. Unless you know what you are dealing with, AND you have experience with addressing below shear line drivers, this flaw really can slow you down. You remind me of when I first started... I had a Master #3 that I could rake, but it took me a few months before I could SPP it! :-(
I’m actually somewhat relieved to read all this. I just started and I have a couple of 140s I can easily pick, but I can’t spp my no. 3 consistently, unless I get lucky. I have better luck raking but I that also is just luck.
Same for me, I got a No3 as my first practice lock, but I've opened 5-6 other locks and a 2nd No3 I got loads of times now - but I still only managed to open that original No3 once :(
They were generally back to front (thus the direction in which I picked them), but there was a fair bit of variation... the highest two cuts had driver pins that were too short, so that really messed with the binding order.
I'm starting to think that master lock's core market lies with lockpicking enthusiasts as nobody in their right mind would use them as actual security measures...
@LockPickingLawyer - impressive as the picking is, I was even more impressed by the smoothness and speed with which you picked up each lock and put the tension tool in it. Didn't miss a beat, whereas I seem to be constantly dropping the turning tool, faffing about trying to get the tip of it in the sweet spot and not touching that first pin. You picked the locks faster than I can place the turning tool...! Nice :)
I started picking locks when I was 8'ish (simple padlocks and safes) usually with a couple paperclips. It was never to steal the contents, but the rush of being able to defeat the locks. However, I never understood how I was doing this. Thanks to a vid from LPL a few days back, I discovered not only what I was doing back then, but also how I was unintentionally doing it. In the last few days I've gone from having an entry level LP set to picking locks well beyond my previous skill level. Thanks LPL, you have a good way of teaching LP'ing!! I'm now 37 and have a new challenging hobby to replace my speed cubing with (though both cause hand cramps :) Side note: I originally used paper clips for single pin picking, and for me that's where the fun is. I've since learned other less skillful techniques but they're less entertaining also. It's all about skill and speed for me, not just speed.
I just got my first lock pick set, pulled out a master lock no 5 from the closet and to my surprise picked it in just about a minute. Been working on it for the last hour and have been unable to do it again.
Well good news bad news. I got my first set of picks today and watched ur videos. First pick took 7 mins on the no 3. 4 minutes later I had picked it 2 more times. Decided to try my deadbolts. Less than 30 seconds each. Now I'm buying an adt security system. Ignorance was bliss lol.
I’ve got one that’s the old version that I got specifically for picking when I first got started with a couple of hair pins. I ran across McNally recently and decided to get back into it. Pulled out this old lock and all I have to do is set pin 3, then pin 2 and it pops right open. Crazy. Enjoying my CI Genesis btw.
I'm just getting into picking as a hobby and I bought a no.3 as my first tester (other than the useless acrylic one I got with my kit) and I found it was much easier to pick with some pressure pulling the shackle. Is that a placebo or something that actually plays a part in the action of the core?
I've been learning how to pick for less than a week. I got the bottom of the barrel picks to see if I could even get a feel for it. The No. 1 was the first one I popped, the No. 3 was the second. and that was on the fourth day of trying. Master locks are stupidly easy even for a picking noob. I don't feel good about using these locks to secure anything.
Are those the lock out tag out locks? With security pins? The lotto locks I've seen r like all red plastic outside. Man I'm still trying to get 10 regular master locks in under 2 minutes. This guy is like one of the best.
I do not get who the fuck dislikes these videos. You COULD NOT ask for anything more. If you are disliking it because you don't like lockpicking, get off lockpicking channels. If you disliked it because it was too long, think about how long it would take you to pick 16 #3 locks. It's not long because of the intro, like all the other youtube channels. This man gets straight to the picking, and even does that quickly.
Did you use the Peterson Gem to pick these locks? As a side note, I can't believe Peterson doesn't offer their TOK pry bar with a pre-bent option. Fantastic videos, LPL.
Thanks. I used a standard hook in .018" for this video. Generally, I'm not a huge fan of the Gem. Just personal preference. It's not a great option for reaching though warding IMO (see video 82 to see what I mean).
This gave me an idea (well, the comments did). You know how they have escape rooms. What if they have opposite and you have to break in. Maybe they already have something similar. Hell, maybe an escape room for lockpickers.
another incredible feat of picking!! The picking equivalent of putting your head in a lions mouth... can be very unpredictable locks,(for spp') especially when used! Bravo.!
Thanks... as for the unpredictability of used locks, you are spot on. That's one reason that I am using new(er) locks for these videos. IIRC, I noted that in the very first time trial video I did.
Thanks... I very rarely break picks, but I do bend them quite a bit. Just bend them back and keep picking! You might be surprised how seldom I replace picks.
Just started learning to pick after watching you. So I have a master # 3 that is much different, it’s from around 1990’s it cannot be shimmed as the mechanism slides sideways and I was able to pick it a couple of times but I think I damaged it because now the key doesn’t work. Its a master #3 with a stamp 3314. Can you do a video on the technique of picking, am I using too much force, and on this particular lock when I use top of the keyway there’s no room for the pic to get in and also when I’m using top of the keyway how far do I push in the prybar because when I pushed mine in it bumped into the first pin so I couldn’t get to it. I bought a bang good set for $16 that came with a clear lock so I’m using fairly normal pics they’re not homemade or anything I’ll look around your site and see if you have any instructional videos but I could really use help, how much pressure, how hard to push pins etc...
Lock out tag out is the only place master lock should be used because the security of the lock isn't the function in that scenario. Now it all makes sense.
My hand can get sore, but the bent tension wrench really helps with that. I picked each of these locks once (maybe twice for a couple of them if I felt something strange) before starting.Can you remind me what I said I would send you... I've gotten a bit disorganized. Please PM me your address also. Thanks.
No worries! PM sent. Yeah, probably after so many hours picking you have developed pain tolerance. Are those master locks the same ones that you can open with a chickenbone, zip-tie etc?
You did really good job you can open up ghost walk quicker than I can open up my front door can't I have a key thank you. Keep up the good work and I'll talk to you later bye-bye
im impressed, see how quick you can pick 32 locks. that'll be fun to watch. i think you should be able to do that in under 10 mins, i challenge you. ;-)
How do you "map out" the lock you are in? I have a really hard time visualizing the pins and where I am inside the lock. In addition how can you tell the binding order so quickly? This is some serious skill...
He always starts from the back and works his way to the front. That is the most secure, which he has also specified in the video, where he opens his ex girlfriend’s backdoor.
Do you think old weathered No3's are harder to pick. I've got one that I raked open, just once, but still can't pick it open. Very frustrating, but I'm still noob.
I just got into this hobby (tools arrived today)….I can pick sparrows cut-away lock, but still have trouble with the “easy as it comes” master lock #3, even when using a rake.
INCREDIBLE SPP'D .I WAS GLAD YOU DID A NOTHER TIME TRIAL WITH MASTER LOCK .THE BIDDING ON SOME OF THEM KEYS LOOK LITTLE TOUGH. YOU ARE MASTER PICKER THAT HAS TO BE RECORD ??.😎😎😎😎😎🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thanks -- don't know if there are records for such things, but I'd imagine this could be beaten without much trouble. Give me a week to practice on this set of locks and I bet I could shave some seconds off. A good raker could probably beat my time as well.
Don't be so modest. Maybe by raking. But spp'd i would be surprised. Try a raking video too see.THANKS for responding i noticed you respond to all comments tha shoul be record in it's self lol lol
I do make an effort to respond to all comments (except for giveaway threads)... if you take the time to write me, it would be rude not to respond. That said, I am reaching the point at which this policy is becoming unsustainable. I don't want to stop... interacting with (all but a few of) the viewers is half the fun of running this channel.
I mean, they're LOTO locks. They're not really meant to stand up to picking, they're meant to stand up to tiredly trying to remove them with the wrong key.
I'm just starting to get into lockpicking. I have just a starter pick kit with one bottom tension wrench and a like 7 picks. I got the #3 open a couple of times with a city rake and once by spp. Now I try and go back and I can't get it open again. I hear all click into place and unclick when I release. Any suggestions on what I could be doing wrong?

This needs a follow-up where you see how long it takes to unlock them all working out which key matches which lock
probably longer
Longer
Def longer
It should be quicker, if he started with the keys separated, and left each one in the lock after unlocking. Still an interesting challenge though, if kept on the key ring.
It might take longer to unlock them all even knowing which keys go to which locks
Things the LPL never said:
"Oh shit, I forgot my keys."
I think he doesn't use keys in first place
When her parents come home in 5 minutes but there’s 16 locks on her chastity belt
notsevenfeettall not if I lock the door with those 16 locks ;)
So are we just ignoring the idea that he probably gets around enough to know how to last longer that 5 minutes?

Solid comment 😂

"This one quirk certainly slows me down"

Nice flex
well, if he raked them, he'd probably spend more time picking the locks up than actually opening them ^^
"Do you have the key?"
"I am the key"
“I AM THE ONE WHO PICKS!”
Well now, that's just showing off lol :-)
LOL, maybe a little. But also lots of fun!
I can just about match your time... for 1 Master Lock #3. Great job, well done.
LOL... not as hard as you might think. Practice is the key (and a bad pun)!

Good idea. Maybe John Williams Jaws
You mean like this?
czcams.com/video/1D5Sa2Yq-2g/video.html
Great job, love watching a pro make it look so easy. Bet it scares the hell out of Master lock:-)
Did you notice the binding order of the pins to be quite consistent or did it not matter too much?
They were generally back to front (thus the direction in which I picked them), but there was a fair bit of variation... the highest two cuts had driver pins that were too short, so that really messed with the binding order.
I'm starting to think that master lock's core market lies with lockpicking enthusiasts as nobody in their right mind would use them as actual security measures...
The problem is that they're cheap and common. If you just go looking for a padlock, that's all some basic stores have.
This makes me wanna get into the lock picking hobby. My hobby list is getting to big lol.
You can learn to do these simple hardware store padlocks in an afternoon, it's shockingly easy!
With all that silence, the "nothing on one, click out of two, three is binding" in his head must have been deafening
Somebody at MasterLock must have been sitting on the floor, in a corner, gibbering...
Thanks LPL.

Almost 3.6 seconds a pin!! Pretty good!

Great job! You make it look so easy.
Nice job, very quick. Can't wait to see the padlock you were talking about last time. Also can't believe the NW4 went down that quick.
Thanks... and the new lock is the most epicist! ;-)
Just got my DT1. Can't wait to get a pick
Incredible! It would have taken me longer just to find the right key to some of the locks... 😂
Well good news bad news. I got my first set of picks today and watched ur videos. First pick took 7 mins on the no 3. 4 minutes later I had picked it 2 more times. Decided to try my deadbolts. Less than 30 seconds each. Now I'm buying an adt security system. Ignorance was bliss lol.

Awsome work mate where abouts did ya get your tension wrench a pick from looks beast cheers all the way from australia...
Thanks. The tension wrench is a toothless .040" Peterson Pry Bar that I bent for comfort. The pick is an .018" standard hook from Peterson.
those clicks sound so satisfying
Good job. That's a great exercise.
Thanks!
I'm just getting into picking as a hobby and I bought a no.3 as my first tester (other than the useless acrylic one I got with my kit) and I found it was much easier to pick with some pressure pulling the shackle. Is that a placebo or something that actually plays a part in the action of the core?

This is the Yoda of picking lock .
You are my hero🧐
Lock out tag out is the only place master lock should be used because the security of the lock isn't the function in that scenario. Now it all makes sense.
I love that top of the key tension wench you are using. Is it home made???
It's a Peterson product, but I put the bend in it.
Impressive!
Thanks...
4,3,2,1 and that focus 😂
Great video. Which Tension wrench are you using?
Looks like a top of the keyway wrench he bent into that curve. Might do that with mine
They perform their function perfectly. What do you want from a tag out lock?
i don't like ASMR but this video sound is so satisfying
A true stop-watch! After that many locks do you get soreness in hand? Have you practices before recording?
My hand can get sore, but the bent tension wrench really helps with that. I picked each of these locks once (maybe twice for a couple of them if I felt something strange) before starting.Can you remind me what I said I would send you... I've gotten a bit disorganized. Please PM me your address also. Thanks.
No worries! PM sent. Yeah, probably after so many hours picking you have developed pain tolerance.
Are those master locks the same ones that you can open with a chickenbone, zip-tie etc?
Yes, these are the same locks that BB opens with improvised tools, like zip ties.
You could halved the time with raking (or at least cut 1 minute) but nevertheless good job!
Nowadays, LPL is so proficient at opening No. 3s he'd probably open 4 of those in 16 seconds
You did really good job you can open up ghost walk quicker than I can open up my front door can't I have a key thank you. Keep up the good work and I'll talk to you later bye-bye
That's 14.625 seconds per padlock! Wow impressive Sir.
What tension bar is that? A bent peterson maybe? I can't find a top keyway bar I like and afraid of spending $10 on nice one that I may also hate
im impressed, see how quick you can pick 32 locks. that'll be fun to watch. i think you should be able to do that in under 10 mins, i challenge you. ;-)
My hands are aching just thinking about that!
How do you "map out" the lock you are in? I have a really hard time visualizing the pins and where I am inside the lock. In addition how can you tell the binding order so quickly? This is some serious skill...
Watching this a few years later. Question, do you work your way front to back or back to front on the pins?
He always starts from the back and works his way to the front.
That is the most secure, which he has also specified in the video, where he opens his ex girlfriend’s backdoor.
I had the cylinder in a #3 lock break in half and it allowed the lock to open with something as simple a pocket knife
Bravo

Don't be so modest. Maybe by raking. But spp'd i would be surprised. Try a raking video too see.THANKS for responding i noticed you respond to all comments tha shoul be record in it's self lol lol
I do make an effort to respond to all comments (except for giveaway threads)... if you take the time to write me, it would be rude not to respond. That said, I am reaching the point at which this policy is becoming unsustainable. I don't want to stop... interacting with (all but a few of) the viewers is half the fun of running this channel.
LockPickingLawyer thank you .
I like the timer would like to see it on every episode
Which hook was that, do you recall? I have an older No3 which is giving me all sorts of trouble.
Brutal
truly unbelievable😀
Thanks. :-)
very nice m8🔐😊😊👍
Thanks.
I mean, they're LOTO locks. They're not really meant to stand up to picking, they're meant to stand up to tiredly trying to remove them with the wrong key.
"Sir he uploaded a 7 minute video-"
"Thats great news!"
"... he picked 16 master locks"
He grinded his lockpicking so high he's doing challenge runs for lols
Are the numbers stamped on the lock the bidding?
I'm just starting to get into lockpicking. I have just a starter pick kit with one bottom tension wrench and a like 7 picks. I got the #3 open a couple of times with a city rake and once by spp. Now I try and go back and I can't get it open again. I hear all click into place and unclick when I release. Any suggestions on what I could be doing wrong?
