Lockpicking is a skill in which an individual would use instruments to break a locking mechanism and gain access to either a location, or to take items of worth from a container. As such, it was adopted by both the Assassins and Templars.
During the Renaissance, the Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze used his Hidden Blade to unlock and enter certain Secret Locations which usually kept desirable objects away from the attention of the general populace.
Before and up to the events of the American Revolutionary War however, lockpicking became more of an interactive endeavor, which required two instruments to find the locking and raking angles inside the keyhole of a doorframe or chest, before physical force was required to destroy the mechanism within. Both Haytham Kenway and his son Ratonhnhaké:ton were shown to be skilled lockpickers.
