Daz LockzABUS Titalium 54TI/40 finally picked..... and with TOK...
I got one under my belt now... The surprising one was being able to bypass this lock with a comb pick. The ABUS bypass tool from sparrows wouldn't work for me, but I didn't want to push that tool too hard as to break it.

Isosceles Trapezoid not a Triangle.. lol..[022] - Sparrows Revolver - Part 3: Pinning and Assembly TipsDaz Lockz2019-09-19 | In Depth Part 3: This is dealing with pinning your Sparrows Revolver to get the most out of the security pins that you can. Tips on a safer way to take this lock apart, without loosing extra parts..
I am showing a quick way to check with the key. If you want to spool up your lock all the way around or to get your lock so that every serration will be active.
Taking this lock apart takes practice, I'm glad they included extra springs and other parts..
I have a few more videos to go on this practice lock, beginner pinning combinations, What picks can you use, what would I change in this package.....
Thanks for watching, remember have fun with this lock.. I am..
Daz[021] - Sparrows Revolver - Part 2: Sparrows PinsDaz Lockz2019-09-13 | In Depth Part 2: This is a breakdown of the pins that come with the Sparrows Revolver. Domed on both ends, realizing that this is a practice lock and is meant to elevate a beginner picker to a higher level.
It took me a while to pick this around with out a reset of the pins, even with the domed pins.
There was a lot of questions I had about why this 4 bible lock was acting the way it does, so I researched and these are the conclusions I came up with...
I hope this give the ones who need it, a better explanation of the inner workings of this practice lock......[020] - Sparrows Revolver - Part 1: IntroductionDaz Lockz2019-09-13 | This is my kind of in depth review and many uses of the Sparrows Revolver.
I think this is an awesome teaching tool to elevate a beginners skill level . There is so much that can be done with this tool and I wanted to explore as much as I can and get my money's worth out of it.
This first video is and introduction and what you get if you were to purchase this practice lock.
I also think this is easily worth the money.....[018] - Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Wrap upDaz Lockz2019-09-08 | After all that money I spent... I can't recommend these locks for a construction site... 2 were comb pick'able 2 were opened with a flat bar 2 cores broke
When considering locks you should consider how much $$ worth of stuff you are locking up and purchase accordingly....
I would recommend to buy the more costly locks that are on the same pegboard, at least that way you have a better chance to keep 'bad people' out.[017] - Comb Pick ModDaz Lockz2019-09-05 | This is my Comb Pick Mod...
I basically filed two angles on each tip of the tines on the comb pick. Isosceles Trapezoid shaped, so that I still had a flat top on the comb pick to push the pins upward properly.
I was able to get the comb pick in the right pin holes every time after this mod.....[016] - Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Home Security Round Body 2Daz Lockz2019-09-03 | Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Home Security 2 1/2" Round Body with 2" shackle depth and 11mm shackle. Super heavy tension on this one but was not too hard to pick. The problem with this brand and style is that they can be opened with a comb pick. That falls under the category of shouldn't happen. Rakeable but with the comb attack, the rake and the pick become unnecessary...[015] - Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Home Security Round Body 1Daz Lockz2019-09-02 | Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Home Security Padlock 2 1/2" Round Body with 11mm Shackle & 1 1/8" shackle locking length. Fairly easy to pick, didn't have to touch pin 5.
This lock is rakeable but not consistantly. It was odd that the comb pick could bypass this lock. This lock is way better than the previous locks in this series that could open with pretty much anything..[014] - Fortress Front Dial Combination Lock DecodedDaz Lockz2019-08-31 | Fortress 1850D - Front dial combination lock decoded. I have seen this done on many channels and wanted to try this out myself. It's amazing how easy this was.[013] - Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Gorilla & Powerfist - Cracked CoresDaz Lockz2019-08-26 | These two locks, both 2 1/2" round body. Gorilla and Powerfist padlocks have cracked cores after 6 times picking. Their skeletonized cores made them easy to break. I assume a money saving company decision. The Gorilla lock was $14.99 and the Powerfist lock was $12.99 both from Princess Auto. These two locks are out of the running in this series. They were fairly easy to pick, but not to rake. I don't have a recommend for either of these as I broke them...[012] - Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Home Security With ShackleGuard - Picked, Raked and GuttedDaz Lockz2019-08-25 | Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Home Security Padlock listed only as 1 1/8" it is the exact copy of the SS440 with an added Shackle Guard. Again, this was very easy to pick but much easier to rake open. The best opening tool is the flat bar again. This lock sold for $ 11.99 at Princess Auto, $2 more because of the shackleguard. I am leaning toward not recommending this lock for job site boxes or anything on a job site.[011] - Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Home Security SS440 - Picked, Raked and GuttedDaz Lockz2019-08-25 | Contractor Grade Padlock Series - Home Security SS440
The first lock in this series is the SS440 imported by Home Hardware and sold @ Princess Auto for $ 9.99 opened multiple ways and very easily with a flat piece of metal. This is their maximum pick resistant line of locks. You can make your own judgment on purchasing this lock but I would advise against it.. You have too much valuables at your job site for this lock. There are 5 lock in this series 'so far' and I will be testing all of them and others I find in the future.[010] - Toolz 2 - Daniu - Hook, Dimple, Tubular and Disc Detainer Pick Setz - UnboxingDaz Lockz2019-08-20 | Technically these are Sporting Equipment?? Right?? We are Lock Sporters.. just an Unboxing. These are all DANIU Toolz, Tubular Lock Impressioning, Dimple Picks, Hook Picks and Disc Detainer Picks.
Very, very happy with all these.
- The thickness of the dimple picks will give me the strength needed to turn those spool and stubborn pins. Just need to put in the time to make them worldly professional like the Spookes set. I have alot of extra ones in this set so if I screw up a pick it wouldn't be such a catastrophe.
- The Tubular Impressioning toolz look very professional and an awesome addition to my collection. The weight of the handles makes these a long lasting tool set, very well assembled. Can't wait to try them out.
- The hook set gives me cheap steel to shape my own picks with handles on them. These were 1 dollar more than the knives I bought from the first tool vid, and it gives me a wafer and dimple rake.
- The Disc Detainer Set are the main toolz I have been waiting for. It is wonderful to have one in my hands after seeing these used online over and over opening locks. I will carefully file the tips down to bring this to a usable condition. Following BB and LPL's lead. Still patiently waiting for the Sparrows Disc Detainer Pick, but like I said in the vid. The Disc pick is not just shaping a new hook or rake, this is more of a mechanical design. Which always takes more time. I would want them to take time on the design and not rush out a sub-par tool. I will patiently wait.[009] - Wordlock Bike Lock - DecodedDaz Lockz2019-08-18 | Decoding a Wordlock brand 'word' combination lock. I needed a heck of a lot of force to pull enough to get the right tension to set the gates. I definitely want to get a few more of the combination style of locks and decode them as well.[008] - Master Lock 22 BypassedDaz Lockz2019-08-18 | Bypassing a Master Lock No. 22 Laminated Warded Padlock. I grabbed myself a set of warded keys for future bypasses along with the ABUS and American Lock Bypass tools.
I am trying out a new camera angle to hopefully get a certain look and feel for my videos. I feel it will show the picking clearer without my hands getting in the way.[007] - Testa 40mm Padlock Picked w/flawDaz Lockz2019-08-06 | Fun little lock found in my basement. I am not sure of the age but it probably has been around awhile. I bought a bench grinder so I was able to grind out the proper tension tool I needed.[006] - Bell Catalyst 300 Bike U-Lock PickedDaz Lockz2019-08-06 | Bought at a local store, I wanted to test how hard it is to pick one of the bike lockz they sell. Be sure you register your lock and bike serial numbers. Sparrows Dimple Pick set works great...[005] - 3 ACE 50mm Padlockz PickedDaz Lockz2019-07-29 | For beginners these ACE 50 mm padlockz are an awesome practice lock. At 5 dollars per lock you will get great practice with different binding orders. There are other locks that come in a set of 4 - keyed alike - don't be afraid to grab those even tho they are keyed the same the binding order will always be different.[004] - Master Lock 141DLF - PickedDaz Lockz2019-07-17 | Master Lock 141DLF Picked after 2 days of trial and error and getting used to my new toolz from Sparrows. I bought the WizWazzle set for its well rounded choices... Picks, Rakes and Tension bars.. I am finding these precision tools alot harder to use as I was using my own creation with out precise measurements.[003] - ToolzDaz Lockz2019-07-06 | My thoughtz on making my own Toolz..
I don't have any of the professionally made toolz so I need to improvise and make my own in order to pick locks without waiting until I can afford it...[002] - Guard Lock 833 Picked w/flawDaz Lockz2019-07-02 | Small Guard Lock no. 833 | 30 mm Picked with 1 flaw I found.
Small tip on tension bar needed and very light tension with reverse rotation needed on 2 3 and 4.[001] - Fortress Lock Picked w/flawzDaz Lockz2019-07-02 | 40mm Fortress Lock Picked and a few flawz that I found.
Mild to medium tension needed, bind pattern 2 3 4 1
Thanks to all the lockpicking vidz out there for the guidance and the entertainment...
