I have one of those locks in a box. its pretty interesting. I think it'd be pretty much impossible to pick, but than again, I've never tried.

If you ask really nice about 346 times, I may take it out of the box and post some photos for you.. but I'm pretty sore right now, so bug me later.

In Soviet Russia, Hardened key opens lock, not lock opens key. (open = breaks) :wink:

(the Russia comment is a joke, if you don't get it, you won't understand)
