Jason likes to name his locks after cool substances, Like Tritium and Thorium. I had to get the one named HERPES. Picked and gutted for your pleasure.

As I noted in video 121, I managed to develop a technique for picking this tricky lock. Here, I describe my approach, and pick it for you.")

Had this one for a while. But, thought you folks might find the huge false sets to be interesting. I added my false-set-o-meter, so you can track the crazy feedback from the tensioner.")

We start off with a look at a new display I built for my lock collection. Then, I tackle a small Burg Wachter and a military Commando lock. They both are quick picks - but, only after you get a feel for them. Until then, the Commando can keep you going for a long time, with no results.")

From my Thumper package, were picking the Master No 15. This is nothing like its little brother the No 3. And, with the first pin set to a zero cut, it fights awful hard. And, it has a sweet spot for tension, which you have to find, if you want to get in.")
