Lishi Tools You Must Have: Top 10

How to Figure Out Which Lishi Tools to Buy First?

If you are just starting to get into automotive locksmithing, lishi tools are going to be a very useful tool you need to purchase. They can be expensive and there is so many to choose from. When I started off, I could not reason the cost of buying every single one, especially because some hardly get used.

The way I made my decision was I went to the busy mall parking lot and took a tally of almost 200 cars. I then refined my recordings to which lishi tools I would need for each. This gave me an idea of what lishis would be most useful in my area. Every city will have a varying amount of each vehicle manufacturer.

If you do not have the patience to do this, I understand. Checkout my Top 10 Lishi Tools.
