Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Complete
This book tells you all most any thing you could ever want to know a bout lock. I can pick most lock an less then a minute, and this book tells you how to bump key locks. It tells you how to pick UL rated locks, but it did not tell me as much as I needed to know on how to pick UL locks. I would say buy this book.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A fine book
This book is well written. It covers basic information that will be helpful to budding locksmiths. The book touches just about any matter that a locksmith will encounter. It is laid out well and has many pictures and diagrams. Some of the reviews listed for this book are a tad overblown...but this book would definitely be a good one to have if you are studying locksmithing.
