Looks like a Ruko. Someone send a lock with this keyway to Xeo to pick! (Then have him send it to me to keep. )

Keymark! You've seen this before but the important difference is that the lock is now in my hands. Not so much a keyway as the resulting crack from severe metal fatigue.

More keyway fear. The brass plug is slightly less than 3/8". So far it has spit out every tensioner I have. Should be easy to open...once a tensioner is filed down. I have lost some 0.015" picks to keyways this small.
Thanks to manskirtbrew for the locks.

That little Wolfdog was a surprising challenge! It was the second lock I ever picked. Have fun with them

Nice locks. Here's some of mine that would definitely drive me mad if I looked at them too long.

A French 6 pin Metalux K6:


A Gege AP3000. The keyway contains a cog wheel that turns in the millings in the key as its inserted:


A Gege pExtra (shoot me now):


Evva GPI:


LOB Tantal (possibly the same as the Granit 2 Gordon shows, but it's recessed behind a drill plate):


And finally .... for now .... not a real crazy keyway, but a demonstration of a buddy's sadistic tendencies in repinning. A 6 pin Yale 870 with a very unfunny bitting:

Dang! Did Selim pin/cut that Yale? And that Gege pExtra keyway - sweet. But that Metalux takes the prize. It would take some time to open that baby. Thanks for sharing, MrA.

I'm on the lookout for an EVVA but I guess I better add Gege and Metalux to the list.

Thanks Gordon. Nope, not selim pinning sauce in this one
