When I started picking, I always wondered what this wiggly too is in all of the Chinese pick sets. Even when I knew I couldn’t imagine where it could be used. Thanks to TonyS for the awesome KESO 2000 :-)
Lock Noob Hey bud, what is the difference between the KESO and the Keso2000? I know that the original KESO has no security pins from watching steel pinnings spp and gut one. However, I have no idea if the 2000 has security pins or not. I know that you said that you felt security pins but the KESO pins often give you a misconception due to the way it is made. Great job on the raking! This is probably the only way I could see the possibility of getting it open for myself. Keep up the good work my friend!
Dimple locks designed with 2 or 3 ways of pins and no warding are the most popular in china in 2000-2008. And this is what for it. But there are smiley all around after 2010. This rake in nowday's pickset is more like a legacy
Very nice lock... and the pick is the same type of pick that comes with the Kaba specialty rake picks too. But these are rakes and you must be over the whole SPP is the only picking, type thing. And moved onto an open is an open, there are so many that will not consider anything else besides SPP. It is kinda sad but all in all, if this helps just one person realize that an open is an open. I used my same style pick to rake open a standard Sargent Keso mortise. Works phenomenally!!!! Just find the pick that fits and works in the lock. Thanks for sharing buddy, Loved all the points you made. Thanks and Happy Pickin!!!!
Steel Pinnings good post my friend. Yes, an open is an open completely, I guess for me I SPP because I like the challenge of it but I have made a deal with myself that I would do more raking In my vids alongside the SPP this year :-)
I have a very similar tool that I’ve got in some random Chinese kit and ‘ve been wondering ever since what it does Thank you for your explanation, great video.
I have seen a video of good dimple lock rakes. The youtuber successfully opened many locks with a variety of those rakes. He used a technique totally different then most people. He inserted the rake under the pins, then twisted the rake in a rocking motion. He never scrubbed with a rake. Clearly different techniques for different locks.
I find it easy to rake security pins, I keep really light tension, to the point its only just about twisting the barrel to the end and keep it there. I don't even notice the security pins when raking.
Most of the Chinese dimple rakes are just to massive to fit into the keyway. Bill did a video on how to narrow them up. But as usual noobster another great video. Thank you.
4 months later, same for me bro. Woke up about 15 minutes ago. Made coffee. Turn on my laptop. Next thing, I am watching Lock Noob rake a dimple. Today will be an great day!!
Yay !! I laughed out loud when I saw the Video Title :D I was surprised when I first did it too, Meme on UKLS said I was the first person ever to open a lock with a "washboard rake", but obviously he was joking :D Happy to see you getting some fun out of yours too. Knowing that lock very well, I think it was the front upstairs pin that was holding you up, and after a quick rake of either side, you need to really rake the top row of pins for a fast open - at least that is what happens with my rake. Nice video :D
TonyS Locks there was a pin right at the back that was. Bound and, I think, in a false set. I could feel it and it was hard to rake. Given more time, I recon I could get the technique down as I'm not a massively experienced or skilled raker tbh. Thank you again for the lock though, it's awesome :-)
Lock Noob sometimes they pop very fast, in under 10 seconds, but I think my rake is a bit different. I take a second or two on the left, then turn the rake around and do the right, then run it along the top and it should open. If not, I reseat and try again. Usually it will open after the first try or two. I have the other half of your one here, I will make an unlisted video and send you a link ( saying that, it will never work now though !!)
I'm asking myself what is the point to pick that KESO 2000 and at the same time avoid to turn it to (over) 90 degrees - surely because of some mean stuff in there - but that means you are not able to really open this lock, if you do not turn the core around...so what it the achievement then?
I have seen these only in the crappy Chinese pick sets but didn't want to buy a set just for this rake. May have to bight the bullet and fork out the dosh.😁 I didn't think you'd get a Keso open so now I want to try my luck. Thanks Mr Noob man!😎✌
Cannot find the video of the rake you used but have one somewhere. I have this one though from another klom rake ruclips.net/video/FwiFEqIcWBg/видео.html
Good work on the Keso.. I like those type of rakes I first started using them on Dimple Padlocks with good results, I also opened a Dimple Master Lock with a can of chili lol I have a video of that....
I’m so shit at rake picking. I just can’t seem to get the feel for it. SPP I’m actually ok at, it’s slower and with finer movements, so for me is easier to track and get feedback. I saw you rake the ABUS and was so impressed. I can only open the ABUS doing SPP. Do you have any general tips for successful rake picking?
i would be interested in such a rake but it cannot be ccp chinese made . Any suggestions? Watching closely i could see it was skill rather than the pick.
Potti314 I wish I had the key to tell. Looking inside the chamber once picked, it looks relatively flat with some exceptions, but hard to judge. I doubt I'll ever gut the thing looking at other gutting videos, it genuinely looks like a horrible task lol :-)
Looked like an earthquake 😉😘😘👍😘😘 Interesting that a "funny shaped pick "like that would overcome such a lock. Is it just great design of pick or fundamental flaw in design of the lock?🤔🤔🤔
Ha ha ha lmao well there you go aye , I was in the same boat never understood why on earth they are always included and never really thought of them as functional / useful but today I was proven wrong in a fantastic way , cheers ash well done on getting an open with such a weird little pick 😜🔓🍻
Lock Noob I guess when I think about it if it was thinned out it would be similar to like a wave take .... Maybe for the smiley key ways one could just slim down both sides till it can fit into the middle notch ? 🤔
I've tried to buy that type of pick with no success can you help.in saying that I don't know if the locks I come across would have the keyway to accommodate it. Cheers 8882huytonuk

Good vid. LN , the really cheap chinese sets are worth buying just for the dimple rakes :]

I got one with a practice dimple lock. It works brilliantly.
I'm _really_ glad it took this long to find your channel. Now I've got something to binge on while I'm buggering around with my hobby!
Welcome!!

Totally agree. I definitely feel more of a sense of achievement when I can SPP a lock and always try that first but open is open...
This kind of rake also works really well with wafer locks.
👍
I have a very similar tool that I’ve got in some random Chinese kit and ‘ve been wondering ever since what it does

Wow. I never would've _dreamed_ such a thing would work on a Keso. I'm gonna try on mine - I've a few, and I have a similar rake somewhere.
Aalbert Torsius go for it and report back please :-)
worked?
I was also wondering what that particular pick in my set was for. Now I know! Thanks!
No problem :-)

Wake up, coffee, lock noob video, it's going to be a good day.
Mmmmmm coffee :-)

I just got a Bangood dimple rake set with this included. Thanks for the info:)
Thanks 🙏
I was wondering what this weird little pick was in the set! Now I know. Thanks!
Thanks :-)
Nice raking. I think I have one of those in my KLOM EPG pick set. Thanks for sharing. 👏👍🔓
Bought a few real cheap chinese sets just for the different dimple rakes :]
Yay !!

Lock Noob ah ok, for me it was always one at the front. Whatever, you got it open with the magic rake, and pretty fast too 😀
Thank you. I actually thought it’s was a little slow for a vid. How long do you usually need on these in your experience?
Lock Noob sometimes they pop very fast, in under 10 seconds, but I think my rake is a bit different. I take a second or two on the left, then turn the rake around and do the right, then run it along the top and it should open. If not, I reseat and try again.

You can use a plug spinner to rotate the lock once picked
Nice lock! Great pick! Great review of the tool and technique!!!
Thanks :-)
I have seen these only in the crappy Chinese pick sets but didn't want to buy a set just for this rake. May have to bight the bullet and fork out the dosh.😁 I didn't think you'd get a Keso open so now I want to try my luck. Thanks Mr Noob man!😎✌
You can get one in a Secure Pro pick set for about £3 delivered from various Chinese emporiums :-)
Two questions:
1. Why is it not a good idea to turn it more than 90 degrees?
2. What is the make of your vice?
Thanks.
1. All the small pins and springs shoot into the keyway and make life extremely difficult. I mean, really bad, lol
2. Panavise 350 :-)
I had a Klom version of one and raked a MTL open... Great as a last resort.
Wow! I’d love to see that on video :-) is there one?
Cannot find the video of the rake you used but have one somewhere. I have this one though from another klom rake ruclips.net/video/FwiFEqIcWBg/видео.html
Thanks I got one of these with my Chinese kit. Now I know. Much thanks.
Thanks 🙏
Thanks! I was wondering what the use of these was.
Thanks for watching :-)
I have one and it works flawlessly on abubs dimple padlock and does it in seconds nice video tho bro
Thanks :-)
Very nice buddy i have one of these never used it tho👍😎👍😎👍😎👍😎😊
Before this vid, I hadn’t either, lol :-)
#metoo I’m assuming this is the correct context for that one...
Good work on the Keso.. I like those type of rakes I first started using them on Dimple Padlocks with good results, I also opened a Dimple Master Lock with a can of chili lol I have a video of that....
Thanks :-)
Really surprising to see that this actually works!
Yes, otherwise, the Keso is a very secure lock shame it’s vulnerable this way :-)
Nice opening but I wonder if it would be more sure, quicker and easier with flags, hooks or diamond picks.
This was raked in under 2 min, with only one practice other spp picking videos of the Keso lead me to believe that it’s a tough pick :-)
I was just glad to know what lock that pick would be of any use for. I’d taken it out of my day carry but maybe I’ll toss it back in now.
Good vid but unless you turn the plug 360 you haven't fully picked it,I take it there's trap pins or something,cheers.
I don’t think there are trap pins in this. Full 360 shouldn’t be too challenging :-)
Thanks for another great, to the point informative video. Great open!
Thank you :-)
Picker MUST be paitience. Thanks for sharing , never seen that pick before.
Thanks 🙏
Keso 2000 and 4000 picked for a while now. The 8000 on the other hand..
Yes, insomnia... That why I'm here before the 100 views
I hope my voice sends you to sleep, lol. :-)
I’m so shit at rake picking. I just can’t seem to get the feel for it. SPP I’m actually ok at, it’s slower and with finer movements, so for me is easier to track and get feedback. I saw you rake the ABUS and was so impressed. I can only open the ABUS doing SPP. Do you have any general tips for successful rake picking?
Raking is in so,e ways as skilful as picking and requires just as much practice. You do need to make sure that you use lighter tension though :-)
Light tension is the key... verry light
@@LockNoob Thank you very much.
That tool came with the first lock pick kit I ever had. The only thing I could find a use for it was a sentry safe.
Hey, if it worked! :-)
i would be interested in such a rake but it cannot be ccp chinese made . Any suggestions? Watching closely i could see it was skill rather than the pick.
Very informative, thank you.
Thank you :-)
Interesting and a bit frightening. Was the bitting quite flat on your KESO?
Potti314 I wish I had the key to tell. Looking inside the chamber once picked, it looks relatively flat with some exceptions, but hard to judge. I doubt I'll ever gut the thing looking at other gutting videos, it genuinely looks like a horrible task lol :-)
It only has 10 active pins, but I have raked 7 different Keso 2000s open with these rakes.
At one point I was given a whole boxfull from a guy at work
Great
Interesting if this tool can to pick Kaba experT 22.
hey mate, do you have the link to this dimple rake or the kit that it came with?
Sorry, I forget, Which is Wriggle and which one is Jiggle?
Wriggle is a lateral wave form and jiggle introduces random rotations to the wriggle ;-)
Can you recommend a lock? Which one isn’t pickable?
Maybe a locksmith could help you :-)
I asked one and he answered only Lock Noob knows the answer 😝
Thanks Lock Noob
Thanks :-)
Is it makeable at home?
Great just added mine 2 my ranger kit 😁😎
Very interesting
Thanks Tipene :-)
Looked like an earthquake 😉😘😘👍😘😘
Interesting that a "funny shaped pick "like that would overcome such a lock.
Is it just great design of pick or fundamental flaw in design of the lock?🤔🤔🤔
I’d say a flaw in the design that the tool exploits :-)
Yeah.. little o’ column A, little o’ column B.
If you have it, it's worth a shot! :)
I agree :-)
Curious why I always got set
Ha ha ha lmao well there you go aye , I was in the same boat never understood why on earth they are always included and never really thought of them as functional / useful but today I was proven wrong in a fantastic way , cheers ash well done on getting an open with such a weird little pick 😜🔓🍻
It’s just such an odd thing. Someone commented that older Chinese dimples used to able to be raked this way hence the smiley keyways now :-)
Lock Noob I guess when I think about it if it was thinned out it would be similar to like a wave take .... Maybe for the smiley key ways one could just slim down both sides till it can fit into the middle notch ? 🤔
Thank you I never do with that pic was for
Thanks for watching :-)
I've tried to buy that type of pick with no success can you help.in saying that I don't know if the locks I come across would have the keyway to accommodate it. Cheers 8882huytonuk
Good rake tool
Would an electric toothbrush make this a little faster? 👍👍
who would think, dimple rake...
Indeed :-)
dimple rakes the new frontier
Next up, rake a Kaba 20 lock
Nitrxgen if I had one I'd try! :-)
Message :)

Thanks👍😀

Great
Chat is this disrespectful what I said
cheese lock....
Mmmmm cheese 🧀
Just found that this tool opens my bike lock so easily it could be the key!
What bike lock do you have?
Lock Noob it's a cheap one I found in a charity shop.
Woooow
