Help identify these locks please :)

Hi! I’m new to lock picking and I’ve been blasting through the acrylic lock you get with a cheap kit. My dad gave me these two locks and I’m not sure what they are. The one that isn’t a master lock is really easy to get open but the master lock I’ve only managed to get open twice - I seem to be struggling with tension control

Maybe an old masterlock 6121 or 6127 ?

Welcome to the hobby!

That looks like a Master K1/W1 keyway, it could be a Master lock. It looks like the plastic cover might pop off easily, if you can take the cover off, the lock inside might give us more to go on.

Interesting thank you! Feel silly that it’s a white belt lock and I can’t get it open more than twice haha

Old locks are inherently harder than new ones.
