great picking mate love that lock

Thats awesome. Nice lock and a crazy keyway. That keyway looks worse then the keymark that I just got from LSA. Great job though. I aspire to be as good as you some day (and have the same lock collection..hehe)

Happy Picking,
Whizdumb

That's one of the meanest keyways in existence ... would you guys believe the pins actually rest in depressions cut into that crazy warding?! The last pin is supposedly unreachable.

For the small amount of time you have in it 'molock, that's ludicrous skills.

So it is time to play with my TS 5000.
You can't be the only one with a youtube video opening this lock :-p
But I guess you'll be the only one for a while.

Simply great.

Grats man that looks like a serious lock. I'd love to see a video of that gutted showing how the active and passive profile balls work.

excellent job kokomo that lock with that kwy looks crazy

[KokomoLock]

Thanks Everyone, it was a real challenge lock. I would love to take it apart but can't figure out how to do it. If anyone knows please let me know. Here is a stock photo from their website, as you see no circlip, just the holes in the cam. There is one more hole opposite the one on the side. I am thinking it takes a special tool to push in all 3 sides of the clip at the same time and the clip compresses and stays on the plug and the plug and clip come out the front together. Here is a picture of it, what do you all think?

Yeah, I know! I read about that in grayman's book and how the pins rest in that divot... that's just crazy!

Nice work Kokomo! That HAD to be a tough one!

Great pick that keyway is awesome! I can't wait to get a look at those security pins they looked like they gave you a rough ride during the pick and you overset them a couple times. Good job picking it within YT time limits!
