Thanks!

Thank you! I've had this lock for well over a year. Every so often I take it out and poke at it, but today was the day!

@@idkidk4334 that depends on the cylinder of course. But either way always a good habit to test before you screw the retaining screw in.

Yea they're strangely rare. I happened upon this one with a KA of the Primus variety as well. I might resell them in the near future.

​@@TheNiXXeDresell them? Nah you should keep them lol you probably won't find another 😂 a lock I've never seen for sale is a arrow SFIC that has a assa twin style sidebar and 7 pin Yale lfic with the 5 side pins

@@gprider1525 so there's not a list that I know of. But any lock that can come in Schlage KIK format will work. I know Sandman has a video on doing white to black in this way, but using paclock bodies. If you ask in LPU it's probably easier to rattle off a bunch of locks.

@@TheNiXXeD cool, thanks for the prompt reply

@@MegaCadr hey! Good to see you! What is your next lock gonna be?

@@TheNiXXeD man, no idea. No time to do any hobby lately…

Thank you! This one acts a lot like a Kwikset Smartkey, but I think you have to be a little more deliberate with it. Smartkey I felt like I could kinda bully it until later in the pick.

@@Nicks-Picks thanks, you too!

It's not shown here but this actually is the core from a padlock! I was originally picking in hand but it's a bit rough that way!

Thats a very high dollar padlock isnt it?​@TheNiXXeD

​@@markash1023it's an Abus 86ti/45. So not the ultra expensive but this lock is fairly expensive on it's own!

@@johndow3490 thank you!

@@Hyperion_Darkness I didn't really talk about the challenge here but the side pins really are ping pong city. When you set 1-2, you drop 4-5. And when you set 4-5, you drop 1-2 if you aren't careful. The gins are the easy part.

@@TheNiXXeD I definitely need to get better with side pins. I have a twin 6k with gins on the way!

@@markash1023 haha during moments where I need to be really careful I hold my breathe, which makes the whole experience a little meditative.

@@sandman_locksport yes they stopped production over 20 years ago I believe. They're still attainable and not even super expensive. This one is a refurbished core and new everything else. Going right to the shelf when my ASSA padlock body comes in :)

@@DutchLockPicker thank you!

The maker is SmallRig. There are tons of different models that you'll want to check out depending on the exact needs (length and size of clamps and such).

@@TheNiXXeD Thanks, I will check it out.

@@wolfganggrojcig2528thanks! Record all the things!

@@TheNiXXeD i'll try. Thanks for suggesting 😎

When comparing pick resistance anyway, M&C don't even come close to that Kaba. I had a lot of fun picking the M&C locks. Even though they are dual mechanism, they isolate really well. Meaning you can pick the top stack and you'll get a notable false set and then you can pick the sidebar. The sliders also often don't have false gates, or the gates are ineffective too, making the sidebar easy. It's probably enough to deter an unskilled picker though for sure. They're ranked around Blue/Purple belt. The Kaba on the other hand can have 21+ pins in five different rows. Even with a low amount of pins, it's still ranked Red belt, but if you get it fully loaded, it's a Black Belt 2 lock. So similar to ICS in pick resistance.

@@TheNiXXeD Dziekuję za odpowiedź i cieszę się że serwis YT pokazał mi Twoje filmy. Ty tak dobrze tłumaczysz że naprawdę przybywa wiedzy i czuję się mądrzejszy🙂

Crazy! Thanks for the story!

Hi! Thank you! I do actually own a 3KS, but have not put a ton of time into it yet. I do plan on picking it eventually! I really want to get one in padlock form, but haven't found one yet. Currently the one I have was from a thumb turn, so it's a modular half euro. As for difficulty, in the LPU Belt system, ICS is Black Belt 2, and 3KS is Black Belt 1. 4KS actually reduced security slightly, and is only Red Belt. So ICS is the hardest of those locks for sure.

@@TheNiXXeD Dziękuję za szybką i wyczerpującą odpowiedź 😀 Ja jestem zwolennikiem ICS . Będę oglądał Twoje filmy i czasami pozwolę sobie się Ciebie zapytać o coś co mnie będzie interesowało. Pozdrawiam serdecznie.

Thank you!

I honestly had completely forgotten what was inside, so it was kind of a surprise for me again. Pretty sure I made it over a year ago. But I'm recording every lock I have, this one too!

Thank you! I know I'm a bit chatty. We got plenty of pickers who talk your ear off. I'm just here for the pickin'. I talk plenty in discord.

Just say it yourself - "We got a click out of one, nothing on two, nothing on 3, we got a click out of 4, a little counter-rotation on 5..."

@@chriscapune7873 thank you! 😀

Welcome!! 😃🐾🐈‍⬛👍🍻

Thanks!

Thanks!

@@sandman_locksport the only other thing I found that worked was a c-clip pliers 😂

Not sure if serious but... in order for it to be valid for belt, you must single pin pick it.

Can it be bumped with side pins?

@@Archer1182 top stack is all standards, but I think it would be really hard to bump because of the side pins. I'm pretty sure just picking overset the rear ones and I had to drop tension slightly to release them. Plus you'd need a fairly restricted bump key.

Yup! Nice eye.

@@TheNiXXeD I have that same knife! I’d love to get some custom scales for it!

@@DutchLockPicker thank you!

I didn't find it too bad. This one just requires a very precise jiggle test and lighter tension when setting.

It was fun but I was hoping for more from that sidebar 😅

Thanks!

@@sandman_locksport they are pretty neat! The staggered pins give a unique feel.

@@jamesedwardson605 thank you :) I figure there are plenty of videos with talking and I enjoy peace while picking 😂

I see you have a similar one as well now. I hope they count as red but I'm not taking my chances and I'll pick one without the weird features anyway lol.

@@wolfganggrojcig2528 yes! All 4 are recorded recently if you want to check them out. They were really fun picks!

@@TheNiXXeD that's really cool 😎 I'm pretty bad at picking pin tumblers, but let's hope I'll get lucky with this one. The dimple locks seem a bit more interesting 🤔 that just might be my bias.

@@wolfganggrojcig2528 these were all fun! Definitely pick them all in the order I did here. The one without sidebar will prep you for the feedback of the others. The top stacks are all similar.

@@TheNiXXeD i guess the one w/o the sidebar is blue belt, correct?

@@wolfganggrojcig2528 correct

Thanks! :)

Sorry to hear yours got bricked. I almost bricked mine assembling it. Definitely not gutting it again.

I'm happy about the pick anyway. I'll never know the original order of drivers though 😭

Congrats!

Yea, it helps to visually test some of the sliders for sure.
