It would appear to be some type of lever lock. Maybe a safe deposit box?

Ok thanks...

My step-dad rents out houses, so he has a bunch of keys (most to kwiksets).

Cool!

its a flat key from diebold, thats the name stamped on the bow. most likely a safe deposit box.
Diebold used to be a good safe manufacturer, now they are hustling corrupt voting machines that are completely manipulable, with the worst locks.

Their voting machine brand name so badly trashed they've changed it to "Premier" election systems. So that's what to keep an eye out for in your own voting district.

I agree, This is a flat steel key. I have a safety box, that was incidently made in America, that I need to make a key for. The suppliers are just out of stock. Will post some pics of it.
