(1463) Review: Lishi KW1 2-in-1 Pick & Decoder

Video 1463 is PROOF that it is time to replace that old Kwikset KW1 lockset! The new Lishi KW1 2-in-1 Pick & decoder allows an UNSKILLED user to quickly pick open Kwiksets, even if the lock contains security pins. These tools represent a clear and present danger to anyone depending on a Kwikset lock for their security.

"This should be regulated"
"I'm givin it away!"

Maybe we should regulate locks instead of lock picks... After all it's the locks that are the problem.

I use the 2 in 1 and 3 in 1 car picks every day, I make the mechanical keys once picked, then program the transponder/remote/smart after that. I recently make a key for a vehicle on the Airside of Manchester Security there is amazing, beats Military, Prison etc. It took 2 hours to get through security, 15 mins to make a full remote key for the vehicle and 20 seconds to

It looks easy in your hands, but you are a very talented lock picker. Great review of a cool tool!

I met Mr Li, in Manchester England at a Locksmith show. However he couldn't get his interpreter into the UK. Even members of the local Chinese community couldn't understand his heavily accented language. However his picking techniques said a thousand words.


In the UK there is absolutely no regulation on tools. However in Ireland, Locksmithing is completely regulated. Go figure.

I got mine ordered. They had really strict Authorization to purchase standards for new accounts.
I spilled my guts and it's shipping pronto.
I can't wait for Schlage - It's supposed to be out soon.

I kind of have the inside scoop, I was talking to my contact... A brief history, I'm a long-term Locksmith, and was one of the 1st in this country to have one of these picks. The 5 and 6 pin Schlage, and 6 pin Kwikset should be out by mid-April. Having said that, I was told a Kwikset Smart Key pick is coming out, (I only know that, he didn't elaborate) and some sort of Yale Y1 keyway is coming down the pipe.


There's a big problem though, we can ask for all the picks in the world, and I'M VERY EXCITED that these pin-tumbler picks are coming out! But they're nearing production capacity, so chances of a Medeco pick coming out.... Not likely Bill. Personally, I'd like to see Corbin/Russwin, Sargent, among others.. It's kick-ass, and heartbreaking all at the same time.

I wasn't expecting it when I first heard, Lishi 2-in-1 pin tumbler picks coming out for; KW1, SC1, SC4 . Mixed emotions. Sounds practical on one hand, and on the other I just don't know. Able to pick and decode a lock without tearing it apart... But also, being able to pick and decode a lock... without breaking it down and tearing it apart. ---- It's neat, I will give it that. I'm actually surprised that it didn't come sooner. I kind of want a set in my bag, just because... They could be useful in the right circumstances.

That thing really visualizes what is going on when you pick a lock (springy, binding, etc.) - would be nice for some of the other locks as well

Very usefull for locksmiths but to control this is what we were told in 1970 and 1980 about normal lock picks . If you need a differant one for every keyway thats alot of tools a criminal would need to purchase . And selected locks is not a criminals first thought its a hammer screwdriver or bolt cropper . .locks arnt picked in 98% of crime cases bill . We have been fighting the establishment for over three centuerys for people today to have a sport or hobby in picking . Most criminals cant be bothered to learn to pick good locks

[lennys]

It helps me alot when I'm helping customers unlock they're house door and the numbers help me decode alot easier

[CristiNeagu]

I think the point of that circular cutout is so you can put the handle in it so it doesn't flop about.

[BoneMarrowGuy]

I love every video you make bill. I watched you a year ago and ended up buying a set and finding you again. You set a seed

[richardedwards]

Loved this video when it came out 4 years ago! We miss you bill!! ❤

[taylorchapman]

Great tool. Makes cutting a key so simple

[_Screws]

Using this as a Firefighter Medic. It’s helped a lot with keys locked in cars I haven’t used on a deadbolt yet.

[eucLogic]

I have KW1, KW5, SC1 and buying another today. These tools are absolutely amazing.

[stonercentral]

Great video, you have the best lockpick videos on youtube. Great lighting, narration and setup.

[JohnLeePettimoreIII]

I've been waiting for Lishi to get into the pin tumbler game. Looks like they're here now.
