it certainly doesn't look like an abloy key..but it sure looks like it's some sort of disk lock key..or maybe some sort of lever lock.. we need a locksmith with many many years of experience to join this conversation and give us a few clues

Aren't the keys for disk locks round?

it look like its a pin for locking something togeter i assume since the square shape it would go in to turn a mechanism. like say when you assemble a stage it has bold on the sides of it and you use a key to tuen it
so that the lock peice ataches the section of stage to the adjoining section
so the tip would go in and then youd turn it and go on the the next peice

It reminds me of an Abus Granit type of key. Check out the picture of the key at the bottom of http://www.abus.de/us/main.asp?ScreenLang=us&sid=344478786172231030820048481786&select=0103b02&artikel=4003318201172
