The keyway and the key itself looks a lot like the design used for the Master 140 locks with the M12 key blank. But I doubt it is.
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture

Can't find any real information on these, but I had a look through a whole heap of profiles and I'm pretty certain it's a Tessi, blank number FF15 (HO584). There is another company called Star, which uses very similar profile but there is more warding... going by that star logo, it's more likely to be made by them, but I'd have a look at both companies to be on the safe side.

Whoops, my bad... the blank is actually TES1 (H0515). The FF15 is almost the same though, got mixed up looking at them cos they're very close together. :lol:

Anyway, since I'm double posting I might as well throw this in for what it's worth. I had a look at the master M12 and that's definately not it. 99% sure it's Tessi, but I'm buggered if I can find anywhere they're sold or even any useful information on them. Looks like you're gonna have to take it apart mate! At least now you know what blank it takes anyway. :mrgreen:
