Does anyone know where I can find some info on Sterling padlocks? I've tried google and not getting much luck.

Oh and also, I was hunting around in a garage today to try and find another padlock to practice on becasue this ERA I got is getting on my nerves, I wanted something easier to build me up. Anyway I found this padlock

I've found some info about it on the net

DISKUS PADLOCK DISKUS 26-70
ABUS 5 PIN TUMBLER MECHANISM
The original DISKUS with a worldwide reputation for quality, now featuring an improved 5 pin tumbler mechanism and is protected by a hardened steel anti-pull/anti-drill plate.
· 10mm Hardened steel shackle
· Hardened steel plate protects shackle gap

Just wondering whether it can be picked with my slimline southords? I can't even open an ERA lock yet so I'm wondering whether this would be any easier by the look of it I think it'll be a lot harder? Should I just let it get dusty with my Yale lock for the moment?

Let it go with the Yale for the moment. You probably can pick it eventually, but its got a very restrictive keyway with spool pins.

I want to get a lock to pick, but i dunno a lock to get. I got yale locks on my door at home, and plus what type of locks are they if they got a little lever type thing on the back of them?

I really wanna start lock picking, i got a newbie set but i want to start ASAP
