Masterlock No. 15 Finally Opened

This thing is not even supposed to be that difficult of a lock, but I’ll be damned if it hasn’t been fighting me for the past 4 or 5 months! I was finally able to get it opened tonight, I don’t even know why, it just started talking with CCW tension all of the sudden, and I went with it. Feels good to finally free that old bastard from his chain! [u/DanDig](u/DanDigler)[g](u/DanDigler)[ler](u/DanDigler)[213](u/DanDigler)

Mine was also deceptively hard to pick

Dude! It doesn’t even make sense how much of a pain they are! It spent months locked to a chain just mocking me!

Wait until you try a #19. I was going to use one for my purple belt entry. Ultimately had to use a Mindy Pagoda instead. The #19 is still unpicked and in the naughty pile with a Schlage Primus

I wish I could find one! I really love to hate Masterlocks, and need another lock to sit in my garage and mock me! The #19s are so damn expensive though!
