AVOID! 40 Piece Warded Lock Pick Set 

Adding the random mid-lenght teeth on the pick that engage nothing but only dodge warding is some magical thinking lol.

That's why it's always best to buy a quality set rather than a quantity set. Hope you and the family are well ash my friend.

Some of those might be used as a shim for handcuffs. Otherwise I agree with your review. Well done as always Sir Noob.

nice cut-away lock, "Picks" do look flimsey, maybe there stackable!? also not all Zig-zag key locks have an actuall locking pawl, but what looks like a heavy duty cotter pin/spring split on either side of the shackle that has one or two grooves to match. they can be located in the middle as well. the key just spreads the spring. Have a great day

There is a market for mall ninjas who want to own a "set of skeleton keys" 😉

Some older warded locks don't have the sprung latch at the back. They have a leaf spring that catches the retained shackle side on both of its edges. That's what double sided warded picks are for, they basically push both parts of the leaf spring out of the way. There's probably locks that have both styles in one lock, which is possibly what double toothed double sided ward picks are for. Those picks you have here might be useful to work out the key for the old bronze Yale lever padlocks of the type that look like they're warded locks but they aren't.

One reason that the 3 don’t work any better than the 1 is because all 3 aren’t catching the latch; only 1 may actually be catching the latch still as there isn’t a latch in every warding gap. There’s a reason the tried and true sets are as they are simply 5, near universal skeleton keys, made of thicker/tougher metal; they work and they’re all you need.

All u need is junk in huge letters across the screen Still enjoying your content keep it up

A good effort trying to justify the wardlock "picks" : )

It's just a way of making more money from some people that don't realize how a warded lock works . If you have a spare or not used key , just cut away all but the last section .

Locksporterts and collectors aside, who actually uses warded locks in the twenty-first century?

Seem like a true waste of money. I'll stick with the standard cheap set. They work well. Thanks for the info.

Dont buy this crap! Waste of money.

I have a use for these! Gonna melt 'em, then make better tools with 'em.

I've seen these on the Chinese websites and laughed. They just don't seem to be of much use at all. I think you hit the nail on the head with the word AVOID in the title. 😂

To late just got it but thanks for warning others

Nice review! I couldn't agree more. The only place I think those might be handy is a kumgang padlock I saw in Bosnianbills video 1331. And that's very rare!!!

The best use for those thin warding keys is as a display of what not to buy. Really enjoy your channel. Thanks for making these great videos.

Great video Ash mate 👍👊😊🇬🇧😎

Yeurgh. At least they’re recyclable.

Maybe if you need weird-shaped shims?

We're did you get your 5 set lock keys from

I really appreciate the fact that he was still objective about the whole thing. Regardless of how crappy they might have been, he still came up with situations where they could be useful

What's the acronym for when you like the sound of things? ASDM? Something like that. Anyway, that may be the single promising benefit to this set. The tinkling of the tin is nice.

A great review and demo as always! Thanks for taking one for the team Ash. Take care mate and have a great week.
