I'm trying to do a small batch order for blanks from ubiquitous keyways like the M1, to less common stuff like finding brass blanks for various BEST keyways; most everyone I've found so far only sells nickel-silver Ilco-style blanks.

Anyway, when you need a wide selection of blanks from a reputable dealer, where do you point your browsers to? I'd love to hear your recommendations.


In my opinion, nickel silver Ilco is the best quality IC Core after market blanks you can buy... and no you can't buy OEM unless you run into a liquidator who happened to acquire Best blanks from a company that went out of business or rekeyed and dumped the old key system.

How many of what Best keyways do you need? I've got some low-quality brass ones gathering dust. You can have a few if you'd like.
