Adverbs of degree

This is the lock picking lawyer, and what I have for you today is a lock which I'm told was made in Soviet Russia in the early 19 seventies, though I really don't know that much more about it.

Basic passive voice

The lock does have one marking, which confirmed that Soviet origin, and that is the price which is cast right into the lock body.

Adverbs of manner

Apparently this sold for two ruble 60 kopeck as dictated by the Soviet government.

It also has a rather unusual locking mechanism, which I have never seen before.

You can see that round, key way and U shaped key, and this one works absolutely flawlessly.

I did notice one unusual thing when operating the key, though, and that is that the center post in the key way extends outward when the key is turned.

I took a closer look at the mechanism and realized that that center post extends all the way through the lock and serves as the locking lug holding the shackle in place.

So it occurred to me that we may be able to open this without the key, simply by grabbing that center post with a pair of needle nose pliers and pulling So let's give that a try right now and just that easy.

We got it open despite that unusual key and key way.

Even so, I still think this is a really interesting and unusual lock and a great addition to my collection.

In any case, that's all I have for you today.
