McNally is the axe/knife guy. I can't speak to their reputation in the broader hobby, but these guys are VERY experienced. To me, it seems like a magic trick to open locks in 30 seconds when it might take me 1 minute to 1 hour. Except master lock. It really is that easy.

Yeah, it's hard to judge how much the gap between beginner and them. I remember there's one where LPL doing some seminar, I was like "He's an actual lawyer???" like I can't believe the locksmithing part is just his hobby or something.

Except master lock
