It has been a while since I laid the collection out for some photos... thanks for the prompting: it gave me a bit of a nudge to reorganize some of the more recent additions. (And, as always, there are a few other new items, including a Kaba-Mas X-07 and some nice padlocks from LocksmithArmy in the mail... so I guess this will be out of date by about Friday.) 
Collecting and refurbishing locks is clearly a passion of mine: I hope the lengthy photo essay doesn't bore people too much.
