Abus by Sears Craftsman?!

[GeneT]

Hi All,

I just ran across a padlock that I've had for years (and forgotten about). It's a beefy lock, with a tight (to me anyway) keyway, and the key is marked "ABUS" . Can anyone tell me more about what I have? I haven't given it any serious picking effort yet, but it didn't immediately yield to me.


It looks identical to this, but with the Craftsman name, rather than "Granit"

Well if it's like the lock in the picture here then
i got this info about this lock

padlock from Craftsman features a double-locking
hardened steel shackle for increased cut resistance and strength
Key Lock 9/32 in. double-locking steel shackle resists hammering
Mushroom pins and paracentric keyway provide superior pick resistance
Solid brass body for excellent weatherability
Vinyl sheath reduces scratching
hope this helps.

Thanks! It was the pins I am most interested in. Should be fun!

Thanks again,
