Sorry for the hijack, but has anyone come across a key blank like this? It’s the only key I got with the 40 and would love to have a few spares around before I end up in a similar situation.

a badly needed update ?
or
i need to make a OEM Butterfly Key Update badly .?
either way here is another chapter for the
2nd best Chapter i know ............
approx 2 weeks ago i was approached by a fellow member who shall remain anonymous , also who knew my main weakness..
Vintage TEq Swag ............
he offered up a 20+ pc set of NOS Code cut Dealership master Butter Fly Keys circa i think ? early 1970's maybe 71-72 to be exact .
only ever seen the one polished to bright brass by
@TrapperHunt ........
so i made a deal with the TEq Devil and the wife too and scooped up the entire collection , as it was put to me , all or none ?
the other smaller vintage keys are / were part opf my existing collection , prior to the 20+ Butter Fly NOS code cut master keys ..
each dealership was issued a set of master keys prior to the advent of a motorized key cutting machine
in the early 1980's
its supports the notion these most likly never saw the light of day and would only be used in the event of a emergency such a s bad snow storm or fire etc ........
and since all parts departments had at least 2 or more working hand punch key code guns , these stayed in the
GOLD Chain Sporting General managers desk for eternity more or less ..........
