You can see that key cutting goes hand in hand with hardware and locksmithing, but also engraving and other general mercantile many people require.

I have no doubt this shop in somewhere in England.

Talk about a hole in the wall!

Cheapside?

Somewhere in the Midwest?

A renters paradise. Imagine renting near here. A one stop shop.

Dont be afraid to plug your junk everywhere. Make sure it's legal though!

Swim wear?

Every good apprentice served part of their time in a busy kiosk. That really teaches you key blank selection.

A lot of cobblers worldwide also attempt to cut keys.



Dont forget to post your pics from the shops you see.
