![[231] GearBest HH Jackknife Lock Pick Set Review](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LC8JW6GNYW4/mqdefault.jpg)
Just bought one of these and it appears they might have been watching this video because the hook and extractor are much "trimmer". Doesn't mean I am talented enough to use them or that I won't follow your advice and replace them...just that they appear to have tried to improve the product. Yaaaaay BosnianBill!
I also got a newer one and found they had installed a magnet inside to keep the picks from flopping around. Wow, constant product improvement. Nothing like German Engineering!
my grandfather always said " if the germans were as good at fighting as they are making things they would have one the war in a year" german engineering is second to none
For what its worth, i just bought one April 2020 and the tensioner still sits nicely and works well. It no longer has the extractor, it has been replaced by a medium hook but all the others seem the same. I dont see or feel a magnet, but after using them for a couple of days the picks will bend laterally a little and they will never flop around when put away. Very happy with it.
Nice review. I'm curious How this feels when picking? Good feedback? Too heavy/large for comfort? Thanks.
How only 4 likes?
I got interested in picking because of both you and Bosnian Bill. My genesis set from covert instruments came in today and I have successfully picked 3 pads, a gun lock, and an extra door knob I had laying around. I'm already looking at this to add to my edc :)
I use to pick padlocks when I was about 12-13, and recently have started watching your videos.
I recently had the urge to try picking again (using bobby pins) and I started on my front door (Yale). It took me about 15 mins, and a lot of effort, but I eventually managed to get it open a couple of times. I looked at the key only after I had picked it, and saw that there was a fairly difficult bidding, as well as 6 pins, some of them feel serrated too.
IYour videos have taught me much about what to feel and listen for when picking a lock, and I plan on practicing more to improve my methods and technique.
Thanks, I wasn't actually sure haha, never having read anything on the subject, I didn't know. I should probably do some of that.
I have this wonderful tool in my briefcase for 5 years now. I opened a bunch of doors, cash cassettes, file cabinets, lockers and other stuff that contains a lock. My workmates are so thankful when they lost a key :D. Makes a lot of fun. I have a bunch of Picks at home but this thing I use the most. Love it! Greets from Germany ;)
Thank you for creating this series of reviews!
I get asked a lot of questions about many products & am only able to comment on those I've owned.
Your reviews are a great additional resource.
"rocking master locks is my hobby" - I love that
I learned on a master padlock and was very proud until you showed how crappy they are.
No point trying to learn on the hardest lock though!
I didn't see this vid till now...but I bought a ' refill ' set of the ones I liked ( and just knew would work ) and I've used them without the handle, well....just because I don't have one :-) The first thing I opened was I think was a Litto with a simple 1 turn = 1 lock, got it open in under five minutes. Then I tried it on a double locking one...had to call it quits after about seven min. ...because I had to pick my daughter up from school. Still am thinking about making a handle though...just haven't gotten to that ( been more then two years... ) Btw, am teaching my daughter how to pick lock now...She's six, and loves it !
I carry this set every day in my change pocket. It's done quite well for quick jobs when I have gone in to see what the customer needed, and didn't need to in my whole kit.
It paid for itself on the day I had to open a filing cabinet at a bank.
Can't go wrong with this.
Edit- Mine is the newer one that has the extractor replaced with a short hook. Much more useful IMO.
Love the new review format, great to see some no bull reviews of equipment!
They come with a standard hook instead of an extractor now
Just finished modding my Jackknife so it's exactly to my taste now.. it took less than an hour and I'm very happy.
I filed down the ridiculously long hook, both the tip of the hook and the shaft of the pick because I couldn't get it to fit into most keyways. It's more of a Euro/Slimline profile now. I also put a tiny dimple in the end so that it sits right on the key pins. It's more of a medium hook now.
I filed down the key extractor so that it will fit into most keyways much better now, and reshaped the "harpoon" at the end to grab better as well.
I replaced the half ball with a SouthOrd Slimline Bogota (SLS-12) that I cut down and drilled a hole in to fit into the set. I don't understand why SouthOrd doesn't make a bogota for this set, but it's wasn't too difficult with a Dremel. You need to make sure that you get the hole in the *exact* right spot and shape the end right or it won't lock into place perfectly. Mine is a tiny bit off but I'm happy with it. It looks perfect, just doesn't lock as tight as the other picks. I'm super happy with this mod. This set needed a bogota badly in my opinion, since it's mostly great for raking/quick entry.
I filed down the base of the half diamond just a bit so it's a little more defined, it's been great for zipping locks.
I finished it off by polishing all of the picks with 1000 grit for a nice smooth ride!
I really wish I could put a picture here, but I'm sure you guys get the idea. The pin that holds all the picks in place comes out from the side with the lettering, so you hit it from the side with *no* lettering. This really is a great little set, and I really feel like I've improved mine. I still keep the Sparrows Tuxedo (that I've added quite a few Sparrows pieces to) in my back pocket, but I love having the Jackknife on a carabiner on my keyring as a backup. I noticed on SouthOrd's website they mention updates to the tool, and my lock nut stays on super tight, so I think the broken/lost lock nuts some people had issues with are a thing of the past.

I started carrying one years ago and can't express how handy the jack knife has been.
Been watching your great vids for a few months now. You have inspired me to take up a new hobby in lock picking.
I was hoping to see you use the gizmo t pick some lockage. Perhaps comment on how it "feels" to use those picks in comparison to more traditional Petersons or similar. Or heck, do a comparison between the various jackknife format pick holders.
You should make an updated video on this, they seem to have replaced all the picks and the extractor is not included in the latest one.
I really appreciate the reviews you are doing on the different types of kits.
Love your videos. Have been thinking about getting into picking as a hobby myself. There's something incredibly relaxing and intriguing about watching you pick and talk about locks and security. Thanks for your uploads!
Amazon has a new pick knife that looks pretty close to the southord. The picks actually look better on the knock off in my opinion. Just curious of its quality if anyone has one.
Thanks for interesting and informative videos :)
Never picked a lock myself but i do admire watching a professional at work
Hi Bill. Thanks for all the great tutorials. Got me into lock picking and in doing so has helped me sorting out a couple of problems at work. Keep up the good work.
Great review Bill. I have often thought of getting one as a back up for work and with looking at the hook I do agree it is a too big. Have you played with it on any locks?
+bosnianbill
Yes, would say for emergency uses only from looking as there is only one wrench too. I know what you mean regarding different pick use. That is what baffles me with Southord interchangeable dimple picks and the GOSO lookalikes. Once tip is screwed in and having no joy, you have to re-set and spend time popping another in. That is why single handled ones such as Souber are great. I just tend to keep the standard flag in the interchangeable
it needs a bobby pin so you can open master locks. LOL! :-D
Or a zip tie 😛
+michael hoyle It looks solid enough to use as a hammer to rap them open.
You could pick the Master Lock using the plastic and cardboard packaging this came in!
+Mark Price Now there is a little challenge for BosnianBill :P
+michael hoyle Or a broken off toe nail..
I've been eyeing one of those for a while, nice to finally hear a positive review
Love your show. Probably watched 80% of your videos since November.
If you don't pick me masterlock wins.
That's two puns.
cheese balls FTW.
The village idiot was on his phone calling the locksmith, "help sir! my keys are locked in my car!". The locksmith dutifully replies that he will be with him within the hour. "thats not good enough!" he cries, "the roof is down and its starting to rain"
Lol
+Richard Stafford Believe it or not I HAVE gotten calls like that. Sometimes they lock the keys in the trunk too ya know? that's often a whole nother story when you lock your keys in the trunk
Thank You for all you Do Bosianbill. I am a new locksmith and enjoy your videos very much The Machine.
As always very informative! I enjoy learning new stuff from you every upload.
Got into picking because of you. Thanks for all the info you've given me over the years.
Love the channel and as soon as I can I'll be throwing some support your way. You turned me on to lockpicking. Now I just have to get the stuff to get started.
Great review! You save us time and money by helping choose the correct tools for the job.
Thanks for all your time for us.
I would love this bit of kit, I was already looking at buying it haha glad to see this review first ☺️
Thanks for starting a new interest for me. Good luck to everyone on winning the tool.
Always a pleasure watching these!
That look quite a good product. One to go onto my birthday wish list. Great video as always. Good luck all!
Great review Bill, most of the other reviews aren't as clear as to the usefulness of each of the tools. Thanks for clearing that up.
Love the fact you're giving away stuff you're reviewing!
Great looking set and packaged nicely. Happy to throw my name in the hat to win. Thanks for all you do Bill.
I have been really enjoying the review video recently. Thanks BosnianBill
Good work bill. I've started lockpicking a little over a year ago now, and I must say this is a product I would buy. Perfect for my keychain or in my backpack. I agree about changing several of the picks, as for my personal preference, I'd mod several of the existing picks, buy another feeler pick, and rake pick, to replace the ones I'd dump. Again great video I'm always looking forward to the next.
I'm really liking these reviews, keep up the good work
Just purchased this and cant wait to add it to my EDC setup!
cool to see these reviews, this is just another of those things I was looking to find budget for at some point
love you vids, i started watching about 4 months ago and have since started my pick and lock collection and getting the feel.
love the channel bill. i've learned a lot and plan on getting a pick set as a hobby. keep up the good work man.
I was wondering about these. Glad to see ya reviewed one.

Wow- That's actually a lot cooler than I thought it would be!

Was looking at this set some time ago. Didnt buy it. But after having all this info might change my mind! Thanks!
That's exactly what I've been looking for, nice little kit!
Looks like a great tool, thanks for another fun video Bill
I really like this tool if I don't end up winning I will prob just go buy it so thanks for reviewing it bill it was a huge help to me and keep the really really good videos coming
got one of these less than a month ago. this thing is solid and well machined. not a piece of junk. only gripes are i wish it had a bogota for raking, and the tension wrench DID fall out. it was on the stairs leading to my apartment for nearly 12 hours. i just happened to notice it on my way coming back from work. i've since placed some duct tape around it to insure it'll never fall out.
I found your channel two days ago... and I'm hooked! Great job bill.
Another good honest review, keep up the good work
Another good informational Bosnian Bill video!
Although I'm new to this, the ball has not worked for myself!
