[1390] The Hallmarks of a Master Lock: Model 115

[brian]

He's got so much contempt for Master Lock that he doesn't even bother un-packaging them before picking them. I love this.

[szymonsadlo]

It's nice that Master Lock put some rubber around the padlock for better grip while picking

The 8 rating means at least an 8 year old can quickly pick this Master Lock open.

[JeffGeerling]

Masterlock hallmarks: overconfident rating, lock body is better built than lock core, and oh yeah—it can be picked in less than ten seconds.

The "8" stands for the seconds it takes LPL to open this lock.

Funny, i just picked up one of these a week ago. Without looking at the key bitting, it took me about 20ish seconds to get through. I use it to keep my dogs from opening my back gate. I keep my dogs nails trimed and they dont have access to anything that can fit in the keyway, so I'm pretty confident that as long as they don't look at it too hard, it won't open.

Smart to pick them in the packaging so he doesn’t have to waste his money on a product line that rates its protection level against its other products.

When it's easier to pick the lock to remove it from the packaging than it is to cut the package open.

Paradoxically, Master Lock's sales just skyrocketed as all the beginning lockpickers were advised by the expert which one to buy for skills practice.

I am a beginner lock picker. The only lock picking knowledge I have, has come from watching your videos. I bought the kit that you mention in this video and began practicing picking locks. You are correct about a beginner lock picker not having too much trouble picking this lock open. I own this lock and have successfully picked it fairly quickly. I have a new hobby thanks to your videos. Thank you.

I used to use one of these with a cable to secure the step ladder to the catwalk of my tractor-trailer. Then I raised the security significantly by swapping out the Master lock for a stainless steel carabiner...

[Toodleypops]

Today when he said, "I've got that open" rather than his usual, "We've got this open." I felt that.
I felt that LPL.

[toinebles]

We're reached the point that we all know it's not a fluke, it's a Masterlock.

My 11-year-old daughter has “mastered” this Master Lock, pun intended. Picking this lock is literally child’s play in my house.

Hey LPL, this is a very timely video. I think you'd be proud of me. My Aunt lost the key to a Master Lock on the fence to her house. I have bolt cutters, but I asked if she would mind if I tried to pick it before destroying it. She said fine so I gave it a shot. I haven't really picked any locks for real and just tried what I've seen you do in your videos. My Aunt said she'd leave me to it and started to go inside. I had it open before she got to her front door! No more than 30 seconds! I was giggling with disbelief. Thanks for the videos and boy what a crummy lock company!

[TheGeezzer]

The 8 rating is for the toughness of the packaging actually.

Master lock employee 1: “it’s been a pretty bad year, what with LPL easily opening all of our locks so quickly”
Master lock employee 2: “well at least LPL doesn’t know about that lock we only sold in Nebraska”
LPL: “what I have here today is a Master lock sent in from a viewer in Nebraska”
Master lock employee 2: “Oh crap!”

[UncleKennysPlace]

Every once in a while I post on Master Lock's FB page, telling everyone to check out the security of ML products on this channel. It gives me a warm feeling.

[nonoyorbusness]

Recently moved to a new house with window locks with no keys, thanks to you in about 5 minutes, we got it open!

[libertycosworth]

Wow, if they would just throw in 2 security pins, it would probably slow lpl down by almost a full minute as he recovers from the pure shock of them having done so.
