Nice review. I like the color black. I like southord picks and rakes.
Yeah it's come a long way for sure.
Always been interested in jackknives but couldnt find any good videos on them ... until now
thanks for the video looking forward to the rest of the series
Thanks Tom, I appreciate it :) Make sure you hit the bell to be reminded when the videos come up, we'll be doing these all week & absolutely need your support.
I like the look of the Southord.
Really nice presentation.
Thanks for watching and commenting Charles, hopefully by weeks end I'll have the presentation nailed! Cheers mate
Thanks for the review
The south Orr is really a nice looking tool.
Just going by how they look, Im torn between the Southord and the Multipick. I just really like that matte black.
They hit the proverbial jackpot with the matte black color so I was super happy when I opened up the box and out popped the black southord JPXS 6 :)
I've been wanting a jackknife for a bit now and have been researching them and so far I feel that the Southord and multipick one are the best. At least the best you can buy still.
That seems to be the general consensus when it comes to which jackknife is worth it and which aren't. So definitely stayed tuned this week so we can get to the bottom of this :)
@@LegalLockPicker I saw your tweet about Mad Bobs having a limited run of his jackknife and ordered one. May still order a Mulipick or Southord.
LegalLockPicker: We shared to Pinterest!!! I like this SouthOrd JK but I would rather
see at least a worm or bogy type rake in it ... as I see it, these kits are for EDC or as emergent
devices. And yes replaceable tips IS a must for me also. Thinner thicknesses would also allow
for more keyways that this type of set could be useful for. U R Liked here!!!

Thank you so much for your support guys, I would love to check out the pinterest share if you shoot me a link that would be great! I spent an enormous amount of time and green backs to be able to bring this review to you guys so the feedback is just incredible! Make sure you watch today's video and comment still lots of cool stuff to give away :) Thanks again M & P
I recently got this JK. Will say it’s well made and the picks are finished nicely. The negative I have is how thick the shafts are and mine have a bit of wobble even with the thumb screw tightened down. My honest opinion is JK’s are a bit of a novelty and not the easiest tool to pick with.
"....bit of a novelty." That seems to be the general response I'm getting from the viewing crowd
I would like to have a bogota tip instead of the deep hook. Otherwise nice jackknife and I really like the flat black finish.
Those are my feelings as well especially b/c if you are carrying a jackknife around you need either need speed or are missing the key. Other variables as well obviously but you are absolutely sacrificing feedback with the jackknife so you need to have a rake / bogota something like that would compliment the Jackknife for sure
i had the original southord as my first ever pick. i have the h+h one now, but id love to get my hands on the multipick one it looks so dang sexy!
Hey Chris, yes the Multipick Jackknife is the most popular one for the moment but most because of name recognition and quality of tools Multipick has to offer. I'm sure excited to see how it turns out and doing my best to give an honest review. Thanks for commenting and make sure to check back all this week for your chance to win these!
I’ve had my southord on my key chain for over 15 years it’s a solid steel body and has and still is surviving me well
This was the first quality Jackknife I purchased I was super happy with the purchase as I found it more convenient then carrying a set with me so cheers to that!
Ye mine has a key extractor instead of the city rake would prefer the city 🤔
Hmmm. Not having interchangeable tips may be a negative. I’d personally like a Bogota. On the other hand, it seems well made, good tolerances, and the rubber o-ring are all big plus’s.
That's spot on thanks, I agree with the rubber o-ring for sure.
Love ur vids
Thanks John Doe that makes it all worth it. Tell Jane I said hi!
Great video and great review criteria. Include more history on the brand reviewed. Very true on the SouthOrd. As to the SouthOrd jackknife. Agreed on your review. Very nice. Durable pick heads. The rubber gasket on the set screw, breaks and or dries out and further wears down and or breaks and you find it in your pocket in the dryer. The set screw wears and strips soon after the rubber gasket loss. That’s the only fault, and the non-replaceable pick heads are the other fault. Other than that a nice tool. Very nice for the money. Take care.
The only other fault. This is purely personal preferences. The pick head selection is well... There are other sets with a better selection of pick tools.
Legal. You sure brought back some memories on this jackknife pick. Surprisingly the first thing that broke was the tensioner. You only have the one size. So this was in my heavy handed tensioning phase. The tensioner wouldn’t fit a lot of times, picking at odd angles on locks on chains, hasps, doors, gates, etc. I torqued, bent, finally broke the tensioner so it wouldn’t fit back in the holder. Lost the thing and would find it in the pocket after the wash. Had to get a street cleaner bristle handmade tensioner and rubber band it to the jackknife pick. Of course heavy handed tensioning, one size tensioner means a lot of pressure on the tension thumb screw. In and out usage, sitting in a warm pants, coat pocket. Lint, dirt trap from hell, loose change wedging into it. Dried out the gasket, over tightening of the thumb screw. That lead to stripping some of the threads. More rubber bands. Never broke a pick. Bent the crap out of few of them. But you can bend or lightly hammer back into shape. Had this tool, loved and hated it for its flaws. The thing is. Had to hide this in an inside coat pocket, or pants pocket. You see if you’re questioned or searched by the Police in Seattle, WA. While it’s not against the law to own one legally. If you’re up to no good- public intoxication. You’re searched and they find this. Well and you’re in a heavy crime area. You’re going downtown. Luckily for me the officer took down my information, confiscated it and either go home without my jackknife pick or come with me in cuffs to answer for some serious infractions. I took the first option and beet feet for home. Miss that tool sometimes. Ah well. What a story.
It may just be me, but living in the UK those tools and their shank height I think personally would be a bit of a ball ache to wiggle around euro cylinders. Probably good for emergencies, but I doubt you'd want to pick with one of those full time.
niiiiiice picks!!!
Hey UnX, thanks for commenting and watching that's a huge ++ for the LegalLockPicker brand for sure! Make sure you hit the bell so you can see when the next video drops going to be fun and informative I hope!
@@LegalLockPicker most definitely you keep making them and I'll keep watching! always a pleasure and learning experience!
I love the overall concept of a Jackknife, especially as an EDC or backup to a main set, & agree Southord deserves some homage paid for their design.
What have always been negatives for me, however, is the limit on tensioning tools as well as, to a lesser extent, the number of pick profiles & respective pick gauges available. Two of these hang ups can be far more easily remedied than the other one, with home brew options on replacement picks a relatively easy fix, alongside commercial replacements. I look forward to seeing in your reviews if any of the designs comes close to rectifying the lack of tension wrench options. With regards the Southord offering specifically, the fit & finish seem grand & the contours of the handle/pick body look very accommodating. I think they’re missing a trick by not offering alternative or replacement picks. Hopefully, that o-ring lasts.
My big question would be, how do you find the feedback, both compared to the others you’re reviewing & to standard picks? Once you’ve had your hands on all of them, I would be interested to know if you would prefer to carry a Jackknife in a pocket over a slimline pick set. Appreciate you putting together this series as, to my knowledge, no one else has put so many against one another & I’m genuinely intrigued as to your findings. Will you convince me to go for a Jackknife? My mind is open & I’m ready to be a believer (!).
Jonathan that is exactly spot on, how can you work on high security locks with the lack of non-conventional tension tools and lock picks? It's hard enough using a specific tool in 0.015' with a TOK bar in perfect conditions.. How are you going to use jackknife with absolutely no give and less feedback? It is extremely difficult for sure :) good point
Looks like nice quality pick. I don't necessarily care for the actual pics that are in Jack knife itself
Thanks for the comment and you are not alone with that my friend
Great video, liked the history!
Nice chopping block pun!!
Thanks for sharing and I look forward to the
next installment.
Ha! Thanks I appreciate it! Hopefully by the end of the week we can give away some jackknifes, learn something about all the jackknifes and just have a great time. Thanks brother!
Too bad these only come with one tension wrench
Wish they had a TOK wrench
Nice review and look forward to seeing the next. Like carrying a jackknife, I carry a RCS. It has a pocket clip where I store a flat tension wrench too. 👍👍👍👍♥️
RCS which tool is that? or a better question is what website can I check it out on?
@@LegalLockPicker Just saw your question....but I see you found one.
Thanks for the video. Glad to have someone reviewing these.
This being the first jackknife is interesting, i wish the locking screw provided a more positive lock.
You are spot on and a lot of people think the same thing. Thanks for watching!
Love that Southord bro lightweight and reliable
I was super excited when I got my hands on the southord one just for that reason. I had the H&H and it truly is heavy so when the Southord arrived in its signature composite materials I was pleasantly surprised
4 out of the 6 have almost identical profiles (Southord, H&H, H, Multipick) I noticed.
Loved the reference to the chopping block Lol
Liked the background history on the Southord and actually getting to see where the concept came from, nice one ;-)
Thanks! & yes unfortunately most of the designs are similar in one way or another however there is something new brewing in the future! Guess you'll have to keep watching :)
SouthOrd _does_ sell replacement picks and extra profiles:www.southord.com/collections/lock-picks-individual-jackknife You can punch out the pin and put in different picks.
I have a Haoshi one that just read "HAOSHI" instead of "H&H". The pin started becoming loose and I ended up losing it, so I replaced it with a Chicago screw. Had to drill out the holes ever so slightly. Works great.
thanks for taking the time to go through all of these for the rest of us!
Nice review, very interesting and informative. Looking forward to the other reviews. Keep up the good work...
Thanks, it takes a lot of time and effort to keep these going. They were all out of pocket in order for me to give honest full throat-ed reviews
It's about time after teasing us for so long, a good review buddy. Have a great one.
I have a question about jackknives in general. How often do you need to pick a lock in your daily life? I don't think I would one enough to carry around with me.
Ah yes, I do get that question more often then you'd think. Here's the deal if you have a set on you , you're more inclined to use it that's just reasonable deduction right but if you aren't in the business or industries where having to unlock doors / cars / apartments I can see the reservation here.. why would a Paralegal or Dental Hygienist need to ever unlock a door? So I do see the paradox here but for others including hobbyist it makes sense or carrying it around to practice , I suppose it all depends on motive. Great question Brian
Great review :) I've always fancied adding a jackknife to my collection so I'm looking forward to all the reviews.
Make sure you hit the bell so you can stay informed when each video drops. This might be your lucky week :) Thanks for sharing on twitter I appreciate that.
Great review brother, I'm waiting on the results. I want the best
You are absolutely killing me! ;)
Great review! I have the OG SOUTHORD jackknife. Always lost the damn tension wrench -__-
HA The OG Southord is still a gem! Need to hang on to those tension wrenches sometimes it feels like they run away!
I've not tested any yet, I'm waiting on the reviews.
Lot of stuff being given away so might get lucky!
Nice idea for a giveaway. I’ve wanted the multipick jack knife for awhile, but I haven’t picked one up yet. I would really like the Mad Bob’s though. But since they aren’t making them anymore.... multipick it is. I find it interesting that SouthOrd was the original creator of the first jack knife. But it seems like they haven’t made many advancements with it, which is a shame. However the price tag is very good for what you get. I agree that they should offer replacement picks and they should offer all their pick profiles as replacements so someone can customize the pick for their personal tastes. I like that there is a snake, but a double peak bogie would be better in my opinion. I think if you need to use a jack knife pick set, it’s likely an emergency situation and you’ll need in quick. So I think it would need to be a bit more rake heavy and less hook-centric. So, snake, worm, double peak bogie, city, triple bogie and a shallow or medium hook. A way to store an extra tension wrench would be nice too.
Also, I shared to MeWe. I don’t use FB, Twitter, Instagram or any of the other big data collection social media apps.
Hey thanks again for watching and commenting! It's super important people leave comments /ideas ect so I know I'm on the right path. That being said you're spot on, it's incredibly difficult being a pioneer however I will say that southord is still innovating in the jackknife sector of locksport. When I reach out to these companies asking for responses regarding the video sometimes they respond sometimes they don't.. Southord is working on another Jackknife or maybe making huge improvements to the JPXS-6 .. I wasn't entirely clear but should be interesting come 2020
LegalLockPicker Oh cool! Good to know SouthOrd isn’t just doing occasional improvements. It will be interesting to see where they go with it.
The Southord seems to be well built. Good quality.
I have the southord and I really do like it. You can change the picks on the southord
How??
@@mpservicesdave9649 I ordered mine cause I needed a new edc. I seen it can with a half diamond but I wanted a deeper hook instead. You just get a punch and push the pin out and all the picks come out. To be honest I have so many doubles or even triples in some cases im thinking about taking one of my bogota
@@mpservicesdave9649 and cutting it down to size drilling the hole in it so I can have a triple peak bogota in there. That would be sweet
@@mpservicesdave9649 I see what he's saying & that's absolutely possible the only thing is, it's not recommended void the guarantee and not everyone has the engineering acumen required to do that with no residual damage done to the tool.
This is going to be a great week watching you comment about each knife
Nice review; I appreciate the history of the product too 😊
Great review. I've been interested in getting a Jackknife for a while now, but have hesitated because there are so many different types. Thank you for doing an in-depth review of each. I like the look of the Southord Jackknife, but I'm not sure I would purchase this one if the picks can't be replaced if damaged. Seems if a pick breaks, your only option is to buy a whole new Jackknife. That is a big negative in my opinion. Looking forward to the next review :)
Jason you hit the nail on the head! Thanks for commenting I absolutely appreciate that and the truth is.. you're right and I can't find any reason that your comment would not be. So now it comes down to well if I can't replace the tips and one breaks would it be more economically viable to buy a cheap one and throw it away or a much more expensive version and replace tips as needed. Unfortunately when you go down that road it turns people off and the end result is nothing is purchased or completely skipped over. Great comment Jason, hope you come back today for Day2!
@@LegalLockPicker Southord does list replacement picks for the jackknife in their replacement pick section.
Been waiting on this series. Great start. It says 1/5. Are you skipping one of those six shown?
You'll see exactly what's going to happen. The issue was do 6 days and giveaway on Sunday or 5 and do giveaway on Saturday so obviously we went with the latter of those options. So the cheaper ones are going to go together and there is a reason for it, you'll have to see the video though :)
Great video!! I would love to try them. I think it might be a downside if you can’t replace the tips. Happy pickings!!
Why are the comments and likes/dislikes turned off on the other videos?
I wasn't aware they were.
Thanks to Lock Noob I have this model on the way. Looking forward to trying it. Will be watching your reviews great interest as I have one of the other ones already
That's awesome! I hope you enjoy the southord jackknife they do make quality tools. Lock Noob is a great guy to know & watch. He knows his stuff. Hope you enjoyed this video and come back all week for more Jackknife fun :)
