Hey Guys,

Found this pretty sweet Jin-Tan Lock a while back and wanted to share it with you guys. It has a cool circular keyway that takes a very interesting looking tubular key with it's own patent.

Feels pretty solid and weighs in at about 575 grams and has a dual locking ball bearings for the shackle.

I have only seen around 3 Jin-Tan locks during my time here so I am pretty sure they are not in production anymore, but I am not sure how old they are.

I have one for my collection so if anyone is interested in buying this one you can send me a PM.

Interesting. Wonder if they are sliders or pins. By the length of the cuts, suspect sliders.

Yeah I think you are right. They are definitely not standard pins~
