  • This is the lock picking lawyer, and what I have for you today is a minute are branded stainless steel padlock.

  • These air currently selling on Amazon for about $30 what you get is a 50 millimeter wide cast locked body with a high shackle guard protecting a 10 millimeter shackle.

  • Holding everything closed is a 10 disc or that I can only describe by saying that it's so bad that it's good.

  • The court feels like someone poured a handful of sand down the key way, indicating terrible casting or machining.

  • But that has the effect of making it very hard for me to feel what's inside, which in turn means that picking times are longer than expected.

  • So all that said, let's see what it takes to get this open.

  • The first thing we're going to do is rotate all of those disks as far clockwise as they will go, and I think I have them in position.

  • Then I'm going to get the pick that Bosnian Bill and I made pick up disc number one, then find number two and get to picking nothing on two.

  • Nothing on three for discs are rough, but I'm only looking for something that's binding very tightly.

  • I don't want that roughness to throw me off.

  • Okay, Number eight is binding tightly.

  • Got a nice click there.

  • Nothing on nine and 10 feels like it could be a captive desk working my way back.

  • Number seven if we go click out of six.

  • Nothing on five.

  • Nothing on four.

  • Three or two.

  • Okay.

  • Working my way through those back discs again?

  • Probably something back there.

  • Binding and holding us up.

  • I think that was number nine.

  • There we go.

  • Got a fair bit of movement out of him.

  • Go way back.

  • Forward again.

  • Okay.

  • Seven.

  • Feels like it's in a gate right now.

  • Probably a zero cut.

  • Nice click out of number four.

  • Nothing on three or two.

  • Okay, let's just go through these disks and see what's holding us up.

  • Okay, That was number five, I believe.

  • Nice click there and everything in the back feels as though it's set Probably something up front.

  • Nothing on two click out of three and we opened up, so that was very rough on the inside.

  • And that did translate into a pic time.

  • Ah, lot longer than I would have expected for this sort of lock, one that tensions from the front with no false gates.

  • Even so, this is not a lock that I would recommend because those rough innards will smooth out over time with use, and it may even lead to premature wear.

  • In any case, that's all I have for you today.

  • If you do have any questions or comments about this, please put them below.

  • And, as always, have a nice day.

  • Thank you.
