Many-warded keyway

[Kumorigoe]

Thinking about ordering this soon.



Seems like a LOT of wards in the keyway. Also seems like it'd be hell to get a pick in there. Opinions?

got 1 gege double spools in em, 5 pin.

this really depends on your skill level and the kind of picks that you have. i see you're from the u.s. so maybe you want to try out a many-warded american profile lock, to familiarize yourself with locks made around the states. the wards on this lock don't seem to be dramatically angled, which is a lot harder to manipulate around, but if you're a beginner it may also incorporate security pins. i started with easy locks without security pins and added challenges over time like ward patterns, high/low bitting comos, and security pins. let's know what you're working with.

This lock is more for my collection rather than for picking. I enjoy collecting high-security locks and keyways, whether they have complex wards or complex pins.

Ive got one,on picking this lock,the warding in the lock wears down to a point that your pick as no trouble entering the keyway.
If you use a epg on it watch how fast the warding vanishes.
I have it somewhere,i will post a pick.

Lol, imagine how quick the warding would vanish if you put a little file in there! Good idea, bad implementation.

the warding doesnt run the whole length of the lock, just the face

I must have add trouble with it at first,because i killed it,as id never seen one before,thinking it was high security.
yes,the warding dont last long at all.

Im glad im not the only one that detroyed the warding on this long! Exhales a long held breath of relief!

Have done one with a similar keyway.
Used the snap gun in the end and it flew open.

I have one in which the warding runs the entire length.

[10ringo10]

just found it the warding runs all the way threw the lock,this ones a 6 pin,as its been snapped,i can see it at both ends.
but that dont matter anyway,its still flawed.

Is it actually 6 pin? Mine was advertised as 6 but is only 5
