Customer Reviews:Average Customer Rating: Use caution in submitting the test in this book! The contents of this book are satisfactory. I just wish there was more detail on many of the topics, but I guess that is why there are additional books available. I personally had some issues with the testing instument in the back of the book when I submitted it. However, after some time and extra emails I did finally receive the certificate mentioned. It sounds as if the IAHSSP is in a transition period so contact at this time is slow. If you do submit the test be patient and persistent! A Good Introduction to Locksmithing I'm neither a locksmith nor interested in becoming one, but I did want a basic understanding of the locksmith's art and science when I bought this book. It gave me just that; a nice overview of the different types of locks, some basic service instructions. I would have liked for a bit more information about safes and combination dials, but I understand that the book needed to be limited in scope to keep it readable. The illustrations are fantastic and it had a "taken from real life" feel that many textbooks lack. Waste of Time This book is really worthless. If a novice, you will not know a whole lot more when you are done than when you started. Most glaring error - torque wrench. Author repeated refers to using a torque wrench when picking locks, but such a tool appears nowhere in the book, not even the index. Handcuffs, automobile doors, combination locks - all lack the necessary directions for one to even begin to understand the processes involved. There is not even a picture of the inside of a car door! Don't waste your time on this one. The omplete Book of Locks and Locksmithing by Bill Phillips Outstanding work by Mr. Phillips. Very informative and educational. Great service by the Amazon.com staff. Thank You All. 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. | | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
