Any idiot can cut a lock but it takes brains to pick a lock
You should do a video on survival gear
Mine are better....i cut bikes bolts all sorts of shit
@@shanethrelfall416 my form of "lock picking" of locks is an 1 1/16 wrench and another or a 3/4 inch wrench
Using pipes to extend the handles will increase force. So would pulleys, hooked up to your scale.

ER Doctor, "So HOW did you give yourself a hernia?" Tyler, "I was trying to break a bike lock with my giant toenail clippers."
I cut so many locks in the army. It's best to keep a handle on your hip, and grab the other with your hands and pull towards yourself.
Legit was gonna say the exact same thing
And hammers for D locks 😅
I agree I cut many locks too
How I always did it.
The ole hip and or armpit technique.
I don’t know why they’re called “Bolt Cutters”. I’ve ever seen one used for actually cutting a bolt. Chains yes, locks yes, cables yes, bolts no. A bolt is not usually in a position where “bolt cutters” could even get to it.
the original use for bolt cutters was to cut bolt seals from shipping containers at the delivery point. the more you know!!
What do you mean? I see these used regularly to open bolts on secured shipping containers.
Fun fact of the day the shackle of a lock is also a bolt just not the kind that screws into something but more like a bolt that goes through a dead bolt in a door
@@markthurst9751 cool fun fact

Back to the beginning
My dad wanted to buy one of these from Harbor Freight a few years ago, I thought it was the dumbest idea. Turned out to be a brilliant idea, this thing literally cuts ANYTHING. It's also a great party favor. You get plenty of looks when you bust these things out of the shop
Anything but the u-shaped bike lock lol
@@OneKnifeYeHand Listen, I think it can be done lol Tyler is just kind of a derp sometimes. Those can def. be cut if you're not trying to cut with the tip of the cutters
@@DozaCraft he’s not using the tip of the cutters though. They’re strong sure, but that bike lock is THICK
@@TheJerseyNinja you can clip away at it
@@imfromthegovandimheretohelp that’s not a valid point. You could also eventually get through it with sandpaper, or a knife, or by pouring water on it. That doesn’t make those things good cutters
Tyler, next try hydraulic rebar cutters like the hydraulic one that lockpicking lawyer used. They can put out thousands of pounds of force.
Edit: I was part of the team that designed the patent of the vevor g-20 and the YQK-300 and those two patents make tons of money.
Also try a face shield because if the rebar cutters blade breaks it’s gonna be some shrapnel moving at high speeds lol
@@TouchSoToxic hydraulic applies force slowly i don’t think it would have the force to break a rebar to make it shatter
@@mrr-ee6ui the hydrolic is slow to increase, but when it breaks it applies the large amount of built up force to the small fragments sending them flying.
Ha ha this guy wants you to buy the jaws of life
@@yellcountytanks3235 that really not the same thing
If you have a tow strap, with a ratcheting tightener, you could wrap the end of the handles together, and ratchet tighten the handle bars together. The mechanical advantage you would have would be enormous, and you could do this entirely by yourself. Food for thought!
As long as the strap doesn't just slip down the slope of the handles
Dear Tyler, what is this magic spell you have casted upon your subscribers? I see a video like this pop up in my feed and I’m like “why on earth would I watch that?!” And yet here I am, still not interested but I’m gonna watch the whole thing and somehow be pleased about it? Yup, like every other video you put out. It astounds me.
He has a good combo of being both charismatic and endearing.
Same!!!
I know. I have no interest in this but I will watch the whole video and probably 2or 3 more videos that I am not interested in. Lol!! I love him.

"Wow! That's a lot of damage!"
Love project farm and all his videos. I watch those vids for really correct tests and I watch tyler tube for pure comedy
@@kordelewaters2655 Project Farm has a much more methodical and accurate approach to tests.
@@kaine2416 wow impressive
Watch them both, for different reasons. Tyler is just funny to watch.
Everyone complaining about the locks not being cut while "in use" needs to realise this isnt a test of the locks, this is a test of rarher or not the cutters can cut.
I think the problem is less about the locks not being in use and more that he's using the cutters in a position that you wouldn't normally be able to use them in

Hey Tyler!
The master lock with the lateral open, it's suposed to be facing your gate or whatever you're securing, so you could only cut on the though side
It's a unfair demonstration, but it's still a master lock, picking it is probably kid's play
I guess you missed the part where he had said he was just curious if the bolt cutters would cut it
@@Justme-jt1ef yeah, I saw it! but got curious about what it could do against the though part
Ayo this is completely off topic but who's that in ur pfp she looks so familiar.
@@NathanRedberry Absolutely nothing you need a grinder or hydraulic cutter for that
@@neon0127 Ren Hakuuryu from Magi
Some of those locks would be impossible (or very difficult) to get the bolt cutters in a position that would effectively cut the shackle, IF the locks were connected to a hasp or latch... especially considering that you could barely get the cutters in to cut some of the shackles with them just loose on the table.
I was thinking the same thing throughout the whole video.
I was also thinking the same. No way you could get the bolt cutters on the actual shackle if they were actually locked onto something.
When I worked security in a high school we would obnoxiously use the really big cutters to cut locks left off lockers at the end of the year and It is a small section to access but we managed
@@Fierriel I wasn't talking about the regular MasterLocks that you would find on HS lockers... I was referring to the reinforced ones, with high walls or extra buffering around the shackle...
The ones he couldn't even get the shackle as deep into the bolt cutter jaws to bite as much as he wanted because the jaws were too big. (Including the one that was stil unopenable after he cut it from the top... the only place for a hatch)
Now, I'm not saying that better quality, (even slightly) slimmer cutters couldn't handle the job and potentially fit in the small gap. What I am saying is that due to their cost-saving (aka cheap) quality HF bolt cutters are too bulky and would not make a great first choice...
They can. If they’re willing to cut off a lock, a couple of extra seconds to get it position is nothing.
alright Tyler, I got to ask, has that cricket moved in for a permanent home in your garage, or is it added sound effects?
Lol it's been atleast a year of chirping lol
@BadDriversOfTennessee actually mid west we have them to it’s most not cold places.
The whole time he's struggling to hold the locks I'm screaming TABLE CLAMPS USE THE G-DAMN TABLE CLAMPS!
Lol, I was thinking "You need a 4 or 5 inch vice."
"G-damn" are you 12?

Mate try leaning against a wall when you're trying to cut the bike lock, so you can push towards the wall, and then the levers won't slide around. Also, the missus says as sexy as the slides are, maybe try boots for tests like this
Or he could use the floor
Gang gang flip flops for life
@@ThePrufessa he tried using the floor but it looked like it wasn't really helping, maybe using a wall instead as a support. Just a thought is all.
@@fordevoGAME fair enough
@@fordevoGAME the floor allows for him to put more of his body weight into it. The wall won't be able to capture all of his body weight.
Man that bike lock must have been tough because Tyler was using his full body weight while wearing the Gang Gang slides, and you know they gave him extra power
One of Harbor freight's strategies is if you can't use the best steel, make it bigger. Works for vises, looks like it works for bolt cutters too.
Can you make a video where you try out different kinds of cricket repellents or mass murdering tools??? 👀
😂
Or ant mass murdering tools.
I expected to see a come-along used to pull those handles together before it was all over. I'm burning to know what fails first, the cutters or the bike lock.
That’s what I was gonna suggest!
I suggested the same thing before scrolling down the comments, haha!
Even just a ratchet strap.
The bolt cutter handles would give in first, my prediction will be!
Love your content- one thing though, if the locks are actually locked to something (for example the American lock with shielded sides) you would not have access to the top. Still loved the video!
"I need an extra pair of hands" he said, the clamps that would let him secure the locks to the concrete block behind him in the shot. :-)
It's always funny to see non construction workers handle regular tools. They either use them wrong or say they're so heavy lol
Lmao, 4:26 Tyler "I could really use another set of hands" ..........
Behind him sits 5 quick clamps!
Probably just teasing us lol
You don't seem to be thinking about how you could access parts of these locks once they are attached to something. The easy to cut, weak point is not usually exposed when it's in use my guy
While attached to something, a massive pipe wrench can work wonders. Just put the entire lock body in the jaw and twist. The lock or the attachment point will give.

@@EatFuckingTimothy It actually a topic of discussion in IT circles. There's been a massive uptick in these attacks.
Best of luck, and as always, beware of random links on the internet.
The cricket really sells your opening joke quite well.
Those U locks have definitely been the golden standard of bike locks they aren’t 100% full proof but definitely will buy a lot of time
The boron is Boron Carbide ceramic. Used in numerous applications because of hardness.
😆 My face when Tyler thought he could cut a U-lock with bolt cutters. They're literally specifically designed to be bolt cutter resistant.
Those bolt cutters are vital when it comes to building firearms at home.
@@listenhere1623 toth tool rivet jaws are a head attachment for harbofreight bolt cutters which allow you to crush rivets on an ak.
Ratchet straps around the handles. Just secure them from slipping off first. Easy torque
FYI... "Bolt cutters" are designed to cut bolts, chain, & cable, not hardened locks.
Battery-operated angle grinders would usually work better, but only if you have the correct blade on them.
The best thing about the Harbor Freight bolt cutters is the flush end of the cutting part; the "high dollar" ones have a rounded end (harder to get into a small space), dent more easily, and typically slip worse.
You had me going psycho with the cricket in the background
Don’t know if anyone mentioned this in the comments yet, but in reference to the “protected” locks you cut: if the lock was attached to something, you HAVE to cut through the side protective pieces.
i bought one of these this spring. for literally no reason other than they were huge and i wanted them. never used them yet. never used any bold cutters ever. but now im glad i have them lol. thanks.
TylerTuber...sounds like a lubrication for marine engines!
Hey, have you tried TylerTube? That stuff's great! it really works!
What you need is TylerTube, frees up seized components and prevents rust!
Anyway, great review and test, especially the test...I'll check out more of your vids to see if they're also as entertaining! ✨
Bruh that cricket going crazy in the background.
I remember thinking locks were serious and that they couldn’t be passed then I got locked outta the farm and used some paper clips and found out that 99% of locks are 3 pin jokes.
Looks like Lockpicking Lawyer has a nemesis in the form of Tyler with Harbor Freight tools.
oh my goodness, i’m so happy. i thought i was the only one who owned those toenail clippers. IM NOT ALONE AFTER ALL
Those crickets don’t sound too impressed. 😂😂😂
I've used a come-along cable at the very end of the cutters to pull the handles together. It'll cut some big stuff... once or twice before the blades are ruined.
Somehow the cricket deserves it’s own credits.
I love how he kept a straight face telling us that he clipped his toenails with those lmao
3:36
Be careful when cutting like that. It puts a lot of torque on your triceps. I ripped mine a few months ago using a large set of cutters like that. Took over a month for it to heal, and you lose a large range of motion while it’s healing.
Tyler...giving tips to all those bike thieves out there 😁
Those crickets drive me insane!! Anyone else? I know you cant do nothing about it Tyler but damn lol
You should get a ratchet strap or a come along to both ends of the handles and see if you can cut through it or if it would bend the handles.🤔
i have an unusual hobby called magnet fishing. it uses neodymium magnets, super heavy duty strength. some can pull over 2000lbs.
id love to see you do some vids with these magnets. can be very dangerous so be careful
we had those in the army and we used them way more than we should have. often the blades would get broken
Having used those type of cutters for a while if you put the jaws sideways and have one handle in your hands and the other on your waist you can apply an amazing amount of force to the jaws
Padlocks are hard on bolt cutters. But you can have some pretty big dents in the cutting jaws and it will still break through it. I just ordered one of those bolt cutters from harbor freight.
Some of the locks you tested are designed to not give you access to the pin to cut when locked, like a tongue lock on a trailer, you would have to try and cut the opposite side.
12:40 yeah, but Tyler, if that lock would be in use you wouldn't even be able to cut it there. because the blocks on the side would prevent you from being able to rotate it sideways.
That cricket in the background tho. 😂
Those 'shrouded' locks have a bare bar segment that when in use would be obscured - a real test would have been to cut through the metal protecting the shackle
I love how this is a dual video. First about the bolt cutters, and also which locks are best against the cutters.
when you do the american lock, try it with the chain attached to it. thats the design purpose. just like you said. if theres something connected to it, its almost impossible
The fact you did this in flip flops really bothered me. Closed toed shoes when doing this kind of stuff, man. Safety first.
14:59 nice trick shot with the pin-end that broke off inside the lock. It fell right through the hole on the other side of the lock. Like a boss.
Those U-shaped locks need a saw.
My mum once broke her keye in her bike lock and my dad spend about a halb an hour with a hand metal saw to cut that lock.
I was wondering if a good ratchet strap around the handle grips might not be a good way to get the required force. Probably not the best way to get through a lock like that but, as noted, the purpose of the video was to see if he could CUT them.
Well if you use those to cut your toe nails I understand why you always wear slides.
You gotta figure out a way to use the bumper of your truck against a tree or something to squeeze the cutters.
The Lock Picking Lawyer almost never really tests a lock. Maybe you can destructively test locks? 😊
He collects locks, and is specialized in nondestructive entry.
I have the smaller pair from HF. Not something I use often at all. I wasn't dropping a bunch of money on a tool that gets used twice a decade. I was actually impressed with the quality of the pair I bought. Especially for the price. This pair seems pretty durable as well. You placed a lot of force on those jaws and only one dent from the hardened master lock. Not bad for a very cheaply made tool.
That cricket has got a lot to say😂
That cricket in your garage is like your co-star that steals the show! Lol
Masterlock;
easy to pick but incredibly tough to break.
Bro... Those locks with the shielded shackles are designed that way because when the lock is on whatever it needs to be on, you won't have any room to get those cutters on the shackle itself. You need to redo those and cut them from the sides!
You can easily apply twice the force pushing up instead of putting your weight on the handles.
Already liked the video before watching!!
Had to cut a lock once because I lost the key.
Found some bolt cutters and cut the lock off just to find the key 2 minutes later.
It was an awesome experience.
Try using a * RamSet * and see how easy or hard it would be… could be a fun video ?
6:51 it looks like this bar is like there's like an inside bar, yeah it looks like there's like a a small bar inside
I thought Mr. Tube was gonna blow an o-ring out on that one. 🤣
I wonder if you connect the opposite ends of the handles to your pulley system would it be enough to break the bike lock? You probably need something to stop the handles from flipping but it could be that extra force you needed?
In what world are you going to cut those locks like that. The walls are to protect from cuts so you have to cut on the walls because the hook piece will be protected by whatever it’s attached to
T T is the most underrated RUclipsr
Tyler! Just purchase a nice vise! “Extra pair of hands” love the vids :)
next video: electrical bolt cutters
Cool video.
If the lock was on something you wouldn't be able to take the shackles out? If the lock was on something you may not be able to get the jaws around the shackle to cut it.
Tyler I like to see you put things in jars for thirty days again. If you do, put things in whiskey for thirty days and see what happens.
We need more jar videos please 🥰
I think we have a bigger one at work 😂, we have to cut containers open, and the bolt thing they put on those is like 1.5cm in diameter.
For the u lock, I recommend a gar jack. This will work 😅
Greetings from Germany
Yes or hammer in some cases
If you try and cut close to the shackle, the wedge of the blade will but up against it, and create a sheering force perpendicular to the cutting force.
You want to make sure there is good clearance either side of the blades, so that its easier to cut, and so that it doesnt introduce sidewards movement and increase blade damage.
I got a much smaller pair of these, and whilst cheap and cheerful, they get the job done and have never failed me on the odd jobs I use them for.
That opening bit when you said you bought some new toenail clippers reminded me of how my grandpas toenails were so wild, regular nail clippers wouldnt even work.. i usually seen him using pliers or some shears to cut them claws
I like how you specifically mentioned that blue dial lock is what you’d use in middle school lockers because that’s exactly what i know them for
Actually funny story if you were unfortunate enough to have the lowest locker and one of those off brand color locks just like yours then there was a 99% chance I could kick it straight open first try
But the black dial master locks I couldn’t kick open
I would've been highly impressed if you actually got through that U lock with bolt cutters.
Use them toe nail clippers to squish that dang cricket!!!
It's funny to think that even though these locks broke fairly easily, they are still harder to break than they are to pick. lol.
To cut thicker stuff you can Open the jaws with the adjustment screw so you can get better leverage. Then once you cut through a little ways tighten the screw up and go again.
That's why you use a battery powered grinder with a cut off wheel.
Plus a lot easier to hide and carry.
Ahh. I see you've done this before. lol
@@dotar9586😂😂😂😂 I have been told that's how its done today.
In the words of Bart Simpson
" I didn't do it nobody saw me do it you can't prove anything" man!
The flaw with these; especially the protective locks, is that if it’s on something… say a storage garage, you won’t be able to get to the top shackle. You should have cut these while they were on a door or locker
I guess you missed the part where he had said he was just curious if the bolt cutters would cut it
