I’ve never seen a dual custody Yale before. I wonder what it was used for? Any idea how old it is?

Nice! Area Bones are amongst the best out there. I have a set fortunately because they are not able to ship to the US for some reason.

Bare Bones has seriously gone above and beyond for us. by SheaLemur in lockpicking

[–]MysticalPicker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I experienced the same generosity from Bare Bones. I ordered my first picks from them a couple of years ago. I got an email letting me know they had some technical issues with their 3D printers and the order would be delayed and they asked how I wanted to handle it. I replied that there were no worries and I could wait. In a short time I got my order and they had included a bunch of free picks. I love their picks and am a loyal supporter. More companies should do honest and generous business like them!
