This must be Rainer’s pride and joy! In par with DanLock (if not better) in my opinion.
I broke down and looked at the solution for this puzzle, in fear of damaging the puzzle if I continued. Boy do I regret doing that.. I would probably still be working on it if I hadn’t looked.
These locks ain’t cheap, but they are milled from a solid block (you could probably kill someone with it judging by the weight =) and are hand crafted.

Excellent lock, I would rate this as Rainer’s second best lock.
(This one I managed without having a look at the solution sheet)

(My lock is currently loaned out to a friend, so I have not been able to take my own photo of it yet.)

This lock has a few tricks up it’s sleeve, though the first one is fairly obvious.
It’s a really solid lock with a good weight to it. Unfortunately it ain’t obvious if you manage to open the lock because the hatch ain’t spring loaded.

I like to think that I would have managed to open the lock without solution, had I known this. Overall a great quality tricklock. =)
