On September 20. – 21. 2014, the fifth Czech Lockpicking Championship took place. I was part of Lockfest, an international exhibition for locksmiths.
The exhibition was very successful and highly praised by experts and visitors from the general public. The exhibition also included popular workshops and seminars, some open to public, some restricted workshops for certified locksmiths or government.
