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.

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

Working my way through those back discs again?

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

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.

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.
