Yale 850 padlock - Curiously Different
Me being more that a bit of a brass addict just couldn't resist having one. I had it with cornflakes and coffee:
But the thing is, it's not exactly what I was expecting. Then I got thinking that you guys could possibly shed some light on it.
So, what I was expecting to turn up was a 6 pin rekeyable as a number of references state including Yale's bla on it. See here and here and here
But what I actually got was this, and while there is a drill plate on the base, there is no retaining screw in the shackle seat. So, that's the end of it being rekeyable from that point of view. And this is most definitely 5 pin.
I'm not sorry I got it since it's a really nice pick, but I'm curious why in the hell it differs so from the Yale description.
Any ideas, guys?
