Hit the local Habitat for Humanity ReStore today; found some lock goodness.  Couple of Schlage AL series leversets - one NIB passage, one storeroom function with a (partially pinned) Primus cylinder. Also, two older keyed Schlage brass knobsets, one with a large exterior knob and standard size interior knob. Finally, two Master LOTO padlocks (three box bundle, one was empty, so they cut me a deal), and a Master 2010, a key bypass high security (by Master standards) combo padlock. Probably going to fit the AL storeroom lever with a working standard C keyway cylinder and sell the leversets, then have some fun rebuilding and restoring the two knobsets. The rest is picking/decoding practice!

 And no, the practice didn't take long. The Primus sitting there gets significantly less impressive when I mention that it only had three top pins and three side pins  .

Nice picking there. Good haul.  If anyone knows any tricks for figuring out the combo on that Master 2010, please PM me. Want to work out the combo of one from a lock display board. Gordon
Just when you finally think you have learned it all, that is when you learn that you don't know anything yet.

Likewise. I can pick the bypass cylinder all day long, but haven't had any luck getting traction on decoding.

If you can pick it open, can you peek into the open shackle hole with an otoscope to see the gates when you dial?

No code number on the combination lock?

If anyone's interested, I believe this is the patent, or at least the closest I could find. US 7934405I think someone's gonna have to sacrifice one, and figure out how to beat it.

Hmmm. The internals remind me of the S&G 8088, without the rekeyable aspect. Gordon

My 2010 is sadly sans code/serial number. No go on decoding via shackle hole either; while it works on the standard 1500 series, this is the view on the 2000 series:
