It was a large unique masterpiece lock made out of plexiglass. It is the kind of lock you normally only see at trade shows, and I am quite sure that this is the reason the lock was ever made in the first place. <\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_638\" style=\"width: 240px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/anthony_fox-230.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-638\" src=\"http:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/anthony_fox-230.jpg\" alt=\"Anthony Fox aka Lordfairfox\" title=\"anthony_fox-230\" width=\"230\" height=\"443\" class=\"size-full wp-image-638\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/anthony_fox-230.jpg 230w, https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/anthony_fox-230-155x300.jpg 155w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 230px) 100vw, 230px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-638\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anthony Fox aka Lordfairfox<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As I said, the lock is a masterpiece! It comes with two keys: one &#8216;normal&#8217; dimple key (including the famous DOM ball) and one &#8216;split key&#8217; that consists of two parts. The idea behind it is that if two people have one half of the key they can only open the lock when they are together. A nice idea and a piece of art if you see it magnified in plexiglass &#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>The moment I saw the first images this lock I immediately clicked the &#8216;buy now&#8217; option and paid with trembling fingers &#8230;. this lock is cool \ud83d\ude42 Communication with seller <a href=\"http:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/anthony_fox.jpg\">&#8220;lordfairfox&#8221; (aka Anthony Fox)<\/a> went smooth. He did send the lock straight away and when I received it in good order I send him a nice &#8216;thank you&#8217; mail. He did reply me to following: &#8220;A gentleman from the Netherlands offered me 1,500 euros for it when the listing was finished! I was tempted but could not go back on our deal. I hope you enjoy your lock&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p>I later learned the identity of this mysterious person who made the offer, and know for a fact Anthony spoke the truth. To me Anthony proved to be worthy of his nick &#8216;Lord Fair Fox&#8217;! And with this post I would like to thank him and make sure many people will enjoy looking at it and playing with this remarkable lock at the HAR conference!<\/p>\n<p>And speaking of HAR: Today is the last day you can order tickets for the &#8216;pre-sale&#8217; price. I am working on a somewhat long and hopefully inspiring piece of text for HAR, but lack inspiration \ud83d\ude42 But for now I can only direct you to the <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.har2009.org\/page\/Village:Lockpicking_Village\">HAR WIKI to read about the lockpick village<\/a> &#8230;. Hopefully inspiration comes quickly. There will be an update in a couple of days &#8230; <\/p>\n<p>Detailed information on the lock and it&#8217;s security features can be found on page 11 on Han Fey&#8217;s excellent article on <a href=\"http:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/images\/c\/c0\/Dom-ix.pdf\">DOM IX (PDF) <\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>demo lock, plastic lock, Plexiglas, transparent, cut away, demo, special, fair, anthony fox, lordfairfox<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":171,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/171"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=633"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
