    Sounds like you needed a new gun safe anyway...

    same thing happened to me when a moving company shipped my gun cabinet(empty thank goodness!) to AZ. One of the locks on the gun cabinet had been jimmied and buggered to the point my key would not open it. I ended up paying a locksmith to drill out the lock and replace both locks with a similar model. Quite expensive and I wish I had just purchased a proper safe. Glad you were able to get to your razors and that you did not need a gun in the interim!

    That is a nice little tool.

    Wow that not cool. I used a dremil to cut the coller around the lock. The fear of shaving with only one razor scared me! LOL!

    Wow, did you file a complaint? Smart of you to empty the safe first, but I would have been quite ****ed to find that someone in that shipping company tried to break into (and in the process breaking) my safe.
