Help identify round dimple key

[brea32]

My grandfather recently passed away and had this key on his key ring. I've never seen one like it and have no idea what it would go to. Perhaps a mail box or a safe deposit box? Any help would be appreciated!

Winner International. It is for a steering wheel lock - one of the types of locks used on The Club. You can see another key with a different type of key (dual sided wafer lock) that has the same logo on the key chain. That is also for a Club steering wheel lock.

True. But am now getting old enough that I can't remember any of it.

Exactly!

I realize this is a really old thread I'm replying to but the key pictured in the thread is the closest I can find to the keys I have no idea what they're for...

Here is a pic...



Do you have any idea what this type of key is and what it would be used for?
I've searched the term dimple key and notched key with grooves (it has a notch at the tip), 3 dimples on one side and 2 on the other... I can't find anything with those terms but this thread popped up so I thought I'd follow up...
Originally I thought it was for luggage but it doesn't look like any luggage locks I can find.

That is the same type of key as the Winner International steering wheel lock above, but the logo is unfamiliar. It may be for a padlock. Have a padlock with the same style of key in my collection.

The keyway will either be a circle or a circle with a post in the middle.

This is, perhaps, a modern Far East / China padlock, or possibly a door cylinder, key.
