seems to be a nice little collectible...

I've not seen that lock before, but mh might have hit the nail on the head - It looks very collectable. Can you imagine collecting your luggage, only to find the lock has been cut off?

That brought me to my second thought, about wondering if it was TSA approved? Otherwise, anyone with a friend in the TSA, might be able to get hundreds of them eventually...

I actually like locks like this - They are too small really to offer much protection, so they do not overboard on sidebars and things like that, they are just good, honest, straight-forward locks.
