Here you go. I beleive serated is the correct description, based on my reading on pin types on here. You can see that a couple of the key pins are serated too.

Hmmm... Interesting.. Got to get me one of those locks :)

Picked today, Tusker High Security Dimple Cylinder:

Kwikset deadbolt, Master #1,3,5. Currently working on Master DG but the sloppiness of the lock is making this difficult. The plug moves everywhere. I plan on buying more difficult locks when I go home on leave later this month. The Navy exchange just doesn't sell difficult locks :(

ASSA 7 pin oval cylinder with paracentric key way, I was expecting to be able to open it up first try cause I've been spending all of my time with high security locks that have sidebars or other secondary locking features but for just a normal pin and tumbler lock this thing was quite impressive the tolerances were very high and the over all quality of construction of this lock made it a challenging pick.

round pins but with one corner, teardrop in cross section, so they don't rotate and present a high side to the shear line. both rows of pins are off top dead center, the shearline must meet on a curvature, If memory serves, the drivers may not be compensated for this curvature, and this may present a flaw that can be used.

I could be wrong, its been years since I had the thing apart in my hands.
