RE: [DML] Re: Compatible Key blank

David is totally right.
I use the ilco for testing, I do not recommend daily use of them. I've
broken one off in my own ignition switch once. What do they say about
doctors being the worst patients?
Anyway, the best blank out there, is the repro from DMCH. It's hard metal
(and murder on the cutting wheels) and a nice handle with logo.

You should be careful in crossrefing the blanks. All blanks are not
created equal. Some are made from very soft pot metal and will wear
out quickly. Brass is good and nickel-silver is best. Just remember if
the key wears the locks won't and vice versa. Also a soft key is easy
to break off.
