Hey Bill! I’ve missed your videos! This one happened to come up in my feed…. I fully understand why you don’t do videos anymore. You have my respect Sir. I am the proud owner of 2 lishi tools. I love them! Peace Bill. I hope you and the local (family tribe) are doing well!
Thank you for going that extra little bit of detail. I have been wondering which one was for what kind of lock and was wondering what the difference between them were. You've been the only one I've found that answered that for me. Thanks again!!!
Great video the only thing is a lot of Schlage locks are 5 Pin with a 6-pin core a true five pin lock that's won't work in it Bottoms Up prematurely so I would recommend buying the SC1 and the sc4
I’ve learned a ton from Bosnian Bill, so much so that I’ve started up my own local locksmith service - these Lishi tools would make my job 9000x easier. Good stuff sir, keep it up!
Bill, if you have a six pin cylinder with only five chambers populated, there's obviously no problem using the SC4 pick/decoder. However, there are Schlage residential grade locks with shorter five pin cylinders (generally knob/levers but the BE365 electronic pushbutton deadbolt also). These will not accept the full length of a six pin SC4 key. In that case you could probably still use the SC4 version of this pick/decoder, but the pin position indicators won't be in the right place when the pick is inserted as far as it will go. (Similarly using an SC4 key with the correct bitting in the last five positions will work, but you have to pull the key out slightly from bottomed out so the pins and cuts line up properly.)
@@mikestrohbusch5434 He was absolutely right!!!! The lock in this video accepted the while tool in, but most residential locks the sc4 wouldn't have gone in all the way!!!!
I was wondering if I could make some sort of spacer that would help lining up the pins so that I don't have to pull it out slightly everytime. It would work right guys?
It's not hard to identify binding order in a lock with ordinary picks. This just makes it more obvious to viewers on camera because of the decoder function.
If the tailpiece was on the back the sc4 pick wouldn't be able to slide all the way into key way the tip would bottom out at the tailpiece just an fyi. This wouldn't work on a b60n or a f series knob or lever if it was still on a door
You can use the SC4 tool in the 5 pin F series locks. The tool will not insert all the way which presents two problems. One - the spacing will be a little wonky - you have to feel around and adjust. Two - if the tool is not fully inserted, all of the tensioning pressure is place on the thinnest portion of the tool which makes it much more susceptible to bending or breaking. On a lock with no spool pins, your pressure will be much lower. Stress on the tool is higher when you are trying to overcome a difficult spool pin. So, while it is possible, I have purchased both lengths for both myself and my technician.
They look like a good set. The only statement in the video I have a issue with is that you would only carry the 6 pin versions is I have worked with locks that will accept the SC1 but the SC4 dose not go all the way in.
Definitely going to buy the Schlage version for my locksmith business. The "SC4" longer version would work for a six pin cylinder that is coded for either 5 or 6 pins. But I don't see how it would work in residential Schlage five cylinder that do not allow for 6 pins, unless it is shimmed so that the tool is held back .156 of an inch (the spacing between Schlage pin chambers). Should be easy enough to make a DIY shim.
I doubt it's really that big of a deal if the pin position indicators are off a little because the SC4 pick is inserted all the way to the back of a 5 pin cylinder.
@@agentvx8320 The tool is in the right position when the shoulder makes contact with the lock. If the longer blade hits the back of the shorter cylinder, then the shoulder can't make contact & the spacing is wrong (same as a trying to use a six pin key in a 5 pin cylinder).
I am praying that I actually win this giveawy. I have been subscribed to this channel for a while and I have learned a lot about lock picking from this channel. From what I have learned from Bill by watching his lock picking video's I did make my first lock pic and tension wrench out of windshield wiper metal inserts and I got a master lock No.3 and No.1 and I began to use the skills of lock picking I learned from watching Bills channel and I was able to pick open the master lock for the first time 2 nights ago and I posted my very first RUclips video that night and I gave a shout out to Bill on that video it is under my name Ryan Clay here on RUclips and it is the first and only video I have ever posted. I thank you Bill for teaching lock picking sport and your channel for lock picking is my favorite to watch regarding lock picking.
Bill took your advice and got myself sc4 plus kw5 all's I need now is the locks to go with them I've heard there are some UK & European that might suit, many thanks Robbie from Huyton Liverpool UK
lol, i loved this video so much i purchased the lishi sc4 to play with and learn this craft, Big mistake, I'm in the uk and we don't have the Schlag keyway , ive not found a lock yet that this sc4 will fit , hmm,
I still come across 5 pin cylinders in Schlage and Kwikset. The SC4 will not go all the way in. That is when you need the Lishi SC1. Like wise for Kwikset.
Do you really need the SC1 pick though? I'm pretty sure you could still use the SC4 version and just live with the pin position indicators being a little off.
I saw your first review of the Lishi the other day. It looks like they'll open Kwikset and Schlage locks even for a noob like me without even having to learn how pin and tumbler locks even work. Fortunately, I do, so I'm still entering the giveaway. 😂
I just noticed that Lishi makes a 2 in 1 for the Master m1 keyway, 4pin. (as if master wasn't already compromised.) Opening has never been a problem, but internally decoding to cut code keys for riveted, laminated padlocks might be worthwhile.
So after I built my first lock picking set I poped my master 140 about 20 times . Then I picked the quickset locks on my doors and found an issue with standard presentation of picking . After I picked it I could turn the core freely but the door would not unlock . So after further testing I had to make a knife to turn something deep in the core to release it so . IMHO I would ask you pick an active lock to test these issues in real life situation I think its much harder than presented .
My front door is master key capable when the houses in my neighborhood were built. Every 3rd house was master keyed alike. A lot of my neighbors didn't trust this and changed the locks out. I was wondering if all locks, say sargent or yale, use an exact number for the cut depth? My key is old and may can be recut by the depth measurements of each layer. Sargent is 5. Best is 6 on my house. I had a binding car key that worked great on one side. I was able to take the good side and cut a new key that doesn't bind.
It is conceivable that a 6-pin pick or key in a short 5-pin lock could protrude enough to interfere with the inner workings, or to prevent the pick's shoulder from getting into the engaged position. So it might be useful to put both lengths into your tool kit.
@@douggwyn9656 It's not actually important for the shoulder to touch the face of the lock though? Unless we're talking about ordinary keys and end users who don't understand how locks work. (This is precisely why Schlage does it in the first place; to dissuade commercial customers from using consumer grade locks in a building master key system.)
I use a 6 pin primus key in my 5 pin f51 entry lock. It’s pinned to the last 6 pins positions. The pick could do the same. I would think the other key ways Schlage has would be more of an issue. We’re the c123 keyway pick?
@@tomking3942 I would think it would be very difficult if not impossible to make one of these for C123, since they're so thin at the bottom of the key.
I wish I bought the Sc1, having trouble with a closet door lock, the reason I bought the SC4 is the seller said it replaces the SC1 and no longer stocking SC1. I am new to this tool and was afraid I was going to damage it, the tool goes all the way in to me and seems to be dead on pin 1, so I was picking 2-6 with the SC4 on the 5 pin door knob lock??
Thank you for this video. My SC1 key has a pin spacing of 0.156" and the number 73272 printed on it. I measured the distance from the bottom of the key and on the key starting from the front of the key - first - 0.306", second - 0.23", third - 0.305", fourth - 0.288", fifth - 0.228, first, sixth - 0.328". Looks like I need six (or maybe five ) bottom pins and a few top pins. Can you determine the exact pin sizes from this data? I bought a door with a lock for my new porch and want to redo the lock so that it can be opened with my front door key. I hypothesize that my key has only 5 pins and these pins are 73272. What would be the pin's sizing and diameter corresponding to these numbers 2, 3 & 7? Also, how can I find out if the top pins are the same?
I was wondering if I could make some sort of spacer that would help lining up the pins so that I don't have to pull it out slightly everytime. It would work right guys?
WHAT ABOUT THE CHEAP IN FIELD LISHI KEY COPIER FOR BRASS KEYS? Does it work or does it easily get dull and how hard is it to cut keys wiht it and create something usable?
so are you telling me if I need a lockpicking keys you would go with sc4 kw5 only as probably the ones that will most likely cover most applications? thank you
Please, I want you to tell me about the most important tools, Mr lishi, suitable for locks and qualin in Egypt, and I also want you to tell me about its model numbers
Hi I have the sc1 and not come across any British locks it fits I mostly work on British euro locks do you know what lishi I need to fit them some 6pin and some are 5 pin thanks bob
I'm looking forward to the answer to this one too, since the Smartkey locks have wafers instead of pins. I know the early ones are pretty easy to pick by raking vs SPP, but I don't know what changes they've made since then.
Mine doesn't go all in but I can set pin 5 with the location 6 on the lishi. So it's just the opposite from u ignoring the 6th pin and I for some reason ignore pin 1. Why Is it the 1st pin location for me and it's the 6th pin location for you if its the same tool?
And this tool would fix the problems I discovered that no picker is showing . The locks do not release by standard picking you need something to catch on the back of the core I.e key or a knife ect . Plz test this tool against spp to show this is true on a active and installed door lock exterior .
omg no wonder, i went to home depot and made a copy and when i got home it wasn't working and i never realize until watching this video that my original house key was sc4 and the one i got in home depot made was an sc1.

Some generic 5 pins will not allow the sc4 going all the way in. This may not allow a good tension or lineup, hence wanting both.

Just ordered my KW5 and SC4, Bill has never steered us wrong yet. Thanks!
Well, what do you think? Worth it ?
@@noahway13 absolutely worth it, I use it for decoding more than picking, I can pick faster with something else and decode with these.

Correct, you just put it in as far as it will go, then work with positions 2-6, treat them as 1-5.
Oh now I understand how he did it. I was confused how the hell my lishi wouldn't go all in like his
I was wondering if I could make some sort of spacer that would help lining up the pins so that I don't have to pull it out slightly everytime. It would work right guys?
Thank you for the clear answer on if these work this way!
I really like these, not just for the ease of use for a locksmith, but you could use these to ‘learn’ the pin binding; and practice SPP later?
It's not hard to identify binding order in a lock with ordinary picks. This just makes it more obvious to viewers on camera because of the decoder function.
These things take all the skill out of picking. How am I suppose to feel special now?! 😂 That said, I want!
By being rich enough to have a full set
THANKS!!

The tension arm is supposed to sit right in front of the plug. Not only do you gain more control but you can see Mr Li's face.
They look like a good set. The only statement in the video I have a issue with is that you would only carry the 6 pin versions is I have worked with locks that will accept the SC1 but the SC4 dose not go all the way in.
its the same as using an sc4 blank to make a new sc1 key, the excess is just surplus material the space and depth has not changed.
I have been replacing old locksets at my office building with schlage deadbolts from homedepot. these are all coming standard with spool pins
Takes a pile of guessing out of lock opening.. Love these tools.

Just to let people know the 6 pin one doesn't always go into the 5 pin key way. It can be stopped by the "nut" on the core.
how often would you say, i'm on the fence on which one to get?

Great review and tips and Awesome giveaway!
The sc4 lishi will not work in a 5 pin lock it hits the tailpiece in some of the locks. I do love the fact that the leashes are so easy to use.
So the 6 pin will not work in a f series lock?
The kwikset 660(idk if there's a cheaper one, but it was the cheapest one I bought at Home Depot) but that actually had 2 spools in it.
The newer kwiksets coming out have security pins in it and the f series schlage has 4 spools with one standard top pin
SC4 and KW5 works with 5 pin, I wish i saw this video. I just got a KW1
Which off them are most common to work on different locks?

send me the link too, where I can get this sc4 key, please, is it for Europe?
How well do these work on the Kwikset Smartkey locks?
Probably not good at all seinc this one is not for kwikset
