    Adding the random mid-lenght teeth on the pick that engage nothing but only dodge warding is some magical thinking lol.

    I really appreciate the fact that he was still objective about the whole thing. Regardless of how crappy they might have been, he still came up with situations where they could be useful

    Some older warded locks don't have the sprung latch at the back. They have a leaf spring that catches the retained shackle side on both of its edges. That's what double sided warded picks are for, they basically push both parts of the leaf spring out of the way. There's probably locks that have both styles in one lock, which is possibly what double toothed double sided ward picks are for. Those picks you have here might be useful to work out the key for the old bronze Yale lever padlocks of the type that look like they're warded locks but they aren't.

      I did try on my old yale, and it should have worked on that…. But didn’t. Either way, I do t think this set has much value outside of some edge cases. Wish it was more useful now I own it lol

    Some of those might be used as a shim for handcuffs. Otherwise I agree with your review. Well done as always Sir Noob.

    A great review and demo as always! Thanks for taking one for the team Ash. Take care mate and have a great week.

    nice cut-away lock, "Picks" do look flimsey, maybe there stackable!?
    also not all Zig-zag key locks have an actuall locking pawl, but what looks like a heavy duty cotter pin/spring split on either side of the shackle that has one or two grooves to match. they can be located in the middle as well.
    the key just spreads the spring.
    Have a great day

    There is a market for mall ninjas who want to own a "set of skeleton keys" 😉

      As is the case with a lot of things, like stainless steel swords.

    That's why it's always best to buy a quality set rather than a quantity set. Hope you and the family are well ash my friend.

    One reason that the 3 don’t work any better than the 1 is because all 3 aren’t catching the latch; only 1 may actually be catching the latch still as there isn’t a latch in every warding gap.
    There’s a reason the tried and true sets are as they are simply 5, near universal skeleton keys, made of thicker/tougher metal; they work and they’re all you need.

    • @watevr4evr
      @watevr4evr Před 11 dny

      I got a lock none of the 5 get for some reason and im sure it's warded

    The best ones i have used are Southords warded set. Insert and twist. The warded keys on Covert Instruments Covert companion is okay but needs some finagling. It's hard to find warded locks in our current time, at least where i am at.

    I've seen these on the Chinese websites and laughed. They just don't seem to be of much use at all. I think you hit the nail on the head with the word AVOID in the title.

    Nice review! I couldn't agree more. The only place I think those might be handy is a kumgang padlock I saw in Bosnianbills video 1331. And that's very rare!!!

    • @LockNoob
      @LockNoob  Před 12 dny +1

      Ah yes! I just saw that and you are right! It makes sense though; as I alluded to in the video, I suspected there might be a load of Chinese/Asian made padlocks that these warded picks might be designed for… now I just need to buy me some!!

  • @novasolarius8763
    @novasolarius8763 Před 12 dny +2

    I have a use for these! Gonna melt 'em, then make better tools with 'em.

    A good effort trying to justify the wardlock "picks" : )

  • @douglasbrandt4068
    @douglasbrandt4068 Před 12 dny

    What's the acronym for when you like the sound of things? ASDM? Something like that. Anyway, that may be the single promising benefit to this set. The tinkling of the tin is nice.

    It's just a way of making more money from some people that don't realize how a warded lock works . If you have a spare or not used key , just cut away all but the last section .

  • @pseudomonad
    @pseudomonad Před 12 dny

    Locksporterts and collectors aside, who actually uses warded locks in the twenty-first century?

    • @LockNoob
      @LockNoob  Před 12 dny +3

      They are very very useful for extremely dirty and dusty applications not requiring high security

    • @adamwest8711
      @adamwest8711 Před 12 dny +1

      Mostly see them on sheds and external gates but, where I live at least, they are relatively rare.

    • @penfold7800
      @penfold7800 Před 11 dny

      They still sell them in Poundland, so some unsuspecting fools must still buy them. Handy for making sure a two year old does open an outdoor aviary by accident I guess.

  • @pieinthesky4106

    Seem like a true waste of money. I'll stick with the standard cheap set. They work well. Thanks for the info.

    Dont buy this crap! Waste of money.
