National Padlock

I picked up a National padlock today for a dollar! I thought it would be cool to have, it is cheap as hell but I thought it would be something fun to play with. It has the ball bearing shackle mechanism, so you can't shim it, it has the M1 keyway. This thing is a bitch to pick, it is hard as hell, I don't know if it is because it's so cheap or what, but it's tough.

It's funny a lot of the cheaper locks are more difficult to pick than the so called high security locks LOL

Hah, tell me about it... I had a tri-circle 265 which I was never able to pick. When you say the only locks on your unpicked list are an ASSA and a tri-circle, something is definately amiss. :D
