Mul-T-Lock and an Assa 600.

Assa 700. These pins are just amazing. But if you look into the core, youll see notches in the top of the pin chambers. Thats counter milling. Its matched to the pins cutouts so they get stuck in the milling. To overcome that, you must employ an advanced tension control method called float picking.

Some of the best locks around.

Custom picks by Jonathan Bailie. Amazing works of art!

Assa Twin V-10;
Assa 700;
Assa Twin Maximum;
Ruko 700;
Ruko 2 with Assa 600 Snowman Core;

The twins all have dual security mechanisms. They are the top pins and sidebars. Both have to be picked and the sidebar has to retract in order to rotate.

They all have gins with matched countermilling.

These are some of the most difficult locks in production. They are also some of my favorites.

I pick locks...a lot of them

To avoid jamming up my personal page news feed, i made this page. I will use it to post pictures and videos of locks that I pick. I will also post tutorials on how to pick locks that are very popular in the locksport community.

If you are into locksport or are a locksmith, feel free to follow me and we can talk locks all day.

I mostly enjoy the LPU belt system locks from BROWN to BLACK. They are just my preference as they are a challenge and the feeling of picking them is like no other.

From Assa Twin 6000s to Goal V18s. From an Evva 3KS to the BiLock. From Assa 700s to challenge locks, youll see them posted here.

I also do trades/sales. If you see a lock that you like, let me know.

The mighty Assa 700 picked. This lock has 7 pins and in those 7 pins, you have the following:

Tapered
Xmas Tree
Torpedoes
Gins

The core also has matched countermilling which will catch the lip of the gins and will negate feedback. To overcome this, you mut learn how to float pick. This is why there are two tensioners present. You can also use one tensioner that fits snug in the keyway, but 2 tensioners are my preference with this method.

This allows you to free those bound up pins by applying manual counter rotation.
