Sorry guys, the name can be disappointing, but the lock is not opened...but transparent, or almost!
Hence its name: transparent lock
Yes, you can see what's inside the lock and what you're doing. Easy then? Not complicated indeed, but we'll see.
First a picture!
So you notice pure quality, right? A lock that is firmy locked and a T-shaped tool.
This is a pretty big lock, but a pretty light (compared to its size) as well because most of the lock is just....empty space !!! :-)
I feel this is one of the most original trick locks because of its design. Regarding the puzzling aspect: this is definitely a nice one to solve, easy to repeat, but overall a not too difficult puzzle.
You should not have too many difficulties to find the steps needed (there are several) that are pleasant.
I was blocked on a step, the last one, that I managed to solve though. But it appeared to me a little bit fetched and I would have prefered a more elegant step!
It's not easy to put a picture of the lock solved without spoiling too much, but I am sure you imagine how it should look like once solved, like all trick locks: when the shackle is opened!!!
To conclude, definitely a puzzle to have in your collection or to have played with. However, a little bit more difficult would not have been bad :)
