DeviantOllam True... not many people realize just how awkward it can be working around a camera/tripod. However, about 6 months ago I started using something that helped mitigate that issue: the manfrotto magic arm. It’s sturdy and really opens up lots of great options for camera positioning. It’s a tad pricy, but I still highly recommend it. 👍

Thanks, man! I hope to toss some new videos up more often... Life's just wicked busy these days. But I appreciate that you are enjoying them! More to come!

Bicycle locks were great in the early eighties. We could break them just by pulling the wheel to one side and rotating until it clicked across to the other. We swapped everyone's locks in the bike sheds at school once. Hilarious fun!

That was really useful. Thanks! It's partially about having the tools, but it's mostly about having the knowledge -- and that's what this video gives.

You are a born teacher

Also fun fact the correct combination is usually 5 positions away (exact opposite) from where you feel the divet if you need to go FAST try positions 4 5 and 6 from the divet first. The reason for that is because the divet interacts with the locking mechanism and usually that interaction happens on the bottom exactly opposing the user facing side of the wheels.

I like your videos, i just wish you would post a little more often. Its always great content and i KNOW you have a lot more tips and tricks in your pocket. Literally and figuratively.

OMG tried this with a cut energy drink can right now. This is working so amazingly well!

Thank you so much ... I’m putting to my refrigerator ..that was at garage with the house key inside and gave my husband the combination and when I back 2 months after that he never used opened and lost the combination ... but know I opened it... thank so so much

When you were decoding it, I was about to say "too bad the combo isn't 1337"!

I facepalmed when it was {n, n+2, n+2} but tried to fooled myself into thinking the last digit was not {n+6} because smaller locks don't have wheels large enough for ten positions. I looked up from facepressing when he had already started turning the wheels together, and my hopes that I was wrong was dashed by "8,0,0,4". TBH I have set the combination to key-cuts, so I can't really argue not being less of a smart-arse.

Easily the clearest demonstration of decoding a lock I’ve ever seen!

Out of the 5 videos I watched this one was the best one and helped me solve my lock

Yeah it works! I used an X acto saw blade, I was able to change to a new number! Great instruction

Finally! It worked for me. Thank you for the video. Helped me a lot.

As a mechanic i used a set of feeler gauges and shaped them for a makeshift decoder. I make all of my own picks and torsion bars and rakes out of carbon steel or the thicker sawzall blades. But i would love to invest in a kit like you have

Thanks for this video. I just bought a used truck with this lockbox on the trailer hitch. I used your method and recovered a missing extra key inside!!

Awesome job!! I have had this old Vault Lock in my drawer that my son has been asking to play with and I couldn't remember the combo. This was perfect. I had to give myself a bonk on the head for not remembering the combo. Thanks a bunch

The KZread side bar confirms your suspicion about the animation by suggesting a video titled "Defcon 19: DIY Non-Destructive-Entry" on Schuyler's channel that shows the same animation in the thumbnail.

Awesome video and a good explanation. Don't forget about false gates though... They can throw ya.

I watched this video and didn't even check the uploader... I just watched (listened to? I guess both) a talk from you from the hackin' fest! haha Thanks for your great explanations, hopefully I can learn and implement them into our red teaming assessments.

You teach the best method so far. Apologies to Bosnian Bill and LPL, great vids but this explanation and tutorial may be the one that stops me smashing mine off the brickwork😉

Well explained

Thank you!

"and no one's the 'Weiser' " ... *sigh* had to 😛 I remember Schuyler using that animation as well. Think he said it was something he made, but I can't be certain. Too bad he doesn't put content together anymore. Anyone else miss NDE Magazine?

Man... this conclusion! JUst wonderful, beautiful... of cooooouuurse your friend set 13 3 7 as the combination and it was so nice to see it coming, haha^^

Thanks for the help friend just bought something and it has this lock on it so at least i can get in to it to get to the screws and removing it since it really has no real security. Since the whole world has youtube and learn how to decode the combination.

"It's almost like a Ouija board"... I keep telling people that locksport is a hobby just with a 'whiff of Sulphur'... maybe I was closer to the attraction than I thought! Soon we will release the dark god Cthulhu from his bonds!

heads up for people looking to make their own tools. in the carpet industry, we use a double sided carpet blade that is .017 inches thick. a standard box cutter razor blade is .025 inches. if you are quite careful, and have something akin to a jewelers saw, you can cut one of those blades down to make some pretty slick tools. making the handles for the things you make will take some practice, but with a small drill bit, and some patience, there's a whole world out there. these blades have a good bit more material to them than the disposable razors you use in an old school single blade double edged razor for stuff like your face. and they dont break as readily.

worked for me with a red bull shim

Hi! You keep referring to your students, I am guessing you teach classes. Can I get some information or a website for that? Thanks

Really helpful thank you love for india

i saw another video about a similar lock that I have on my door because the contractor is cheap. it's not like hanging the key on a nail for a thief to see. It's like hanging a sign up that says "here's the key" and pointing to the key on a nail. Without the expensive shims, simply take a soda can, cheaper the better as it's probably thinner. Cut yourself a strip and then continue to cut it until it's narrow enough to fit in the space. Probably takes about six minutes to open, including cutting up an empty soda can.

Shout out to all the left handed lockpickers out there.

Some people will pay attention to the number on the lock after they lock it, that way they can tell if someone has tampered with the lock. I would write it down.

Separate question Need you to do a separate test on the new hotel Lock. that use the smart phone to unlock the door. There's a vulnerability in the system can anybody hack this by using the QR code or NFC function. or RFID

Your talk of 'thin tools' made me wonder...would old-school 'feeler gauge' blades make good tools? with a little grinding of the tips to create hooks or points, etc? Are you familiar with 'feeler-gauge' tools? old dinosaurs like me used to use them to set things called "points" in car-engines. they usually came in a 'pocket-knife' configuration with about 10 - 12 in each. Thin but very good steel.
