does anyone have any info on these?
Mine has stainless steel serrated key pins, as well as serrated drivers,and spools as well,(also stainless steel)
thanks.

I have seen a couple of their keys, but never a lock.
A quick google search gave this:

Looks like a nice lock.

Thanks, Wizer.
also wondering if anyone had any experience picking these?
mine is very difficult. minimal tolerances for machining error,
very strong springs, and the stainless steel pins all come into play.
i have managed to set 3 out of 5 pins,but it gets hairy after that.

Hi!
Most Euro Cylinders are a bit harder to pick...just keep on trying and consider yourself lucky that you don't have the WILKA 6-pin version, which is very common here in Germany

Take a look over here for some more info:

thanks,scholls =)
this europhile was actually sent to me along with a DOM,an abus buffo,and another abus euro profile cylinder (all picked)
and i have picked a fair amount of serrated pins,
but this lock does not compare.
also picked a chubb/medeco,and an israeli medeco euro profile,and a MTL 7x7
and posted the pictures under the "what did you pick today" thread...
i hope to add the WILKA soon...
