Canadian key

Got a cool old key? What keyway is this?! Need a key for that old steamer trunk or padlock? Do Not Duplicate got you down? What's that part number for that factory key section? Which supplier has this key blank in stock? Need the MACS, root depth, or Depth and Spacing for your lock? Need some pre cut keys? Keys and Key Blanks is the forum for you!

This is a Curtis HK-1. Can't find it in any of my key books. It was on a key rack that originated in Canada. Curtis Ind. Canada Ltd. Seems to be a 6-7 pin blank. What lock used this?

it feels like a Yale... could it be for a Hyster/Yale fork lift?

I get the idea from this key which looks a little like it

It looks kinda like an old Corbin. But, I couldn't find it in any of my catalogs.
Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool. Wisdom is not just in determining how to do something, but also includes determining whether it should be done at all.

Well, I forgot one source to check and after looking in my 'new' 1966 Ilco Catalog No.20, I found it. It is in fact an older Corbin blank. An Ilco X1000F. Thanks to Raymond and Squelchtone for their replies.
