Nice little lock, i like your handy work to make it gutable. Where are the Japanese pickers to help the wider community get access to theses small wonders?
This lock picks very differently than a BiLock, so it's hard to directly compare them. The GSK is relatively straightforward to pick, it just requires careful lifting and persistence to work through all of the tapered sections to get the pins to set, but you aren't dropping pins frequently and you don't need to modulate tension to negotiate false gates -- if you continue to nudge the binding pin, the lock will eventually open. A BiLock requires much more guidance from feedback to know which elements are set, and getting pins out of false gates can wipe out your progress if you don't handle your tension with precision and follow the binding order. That said, it took me considerably longer to open the GSK for the first time than I spent on my BiLock NG.
Thanks for the info. Iv never seen one of those double row cam locks before. Gona get ti on the list of things to wach out for. Bery good pick and gut video. Thanks Kinda supprised you got your first open on a BiLock faster than this. My BiLock was about 6 hours work over a couple of days to get the first open
