The Clutch Lock is a premium mechanical puzzle lock designed and produced by Andrew Coles. Built around a novel internal mechanism, it offers a fresh challenge to the traditional trick-lock format. Each piece in this limited run is stamped with a unique, consecutive serial number.
The objective is simple: Open the shackle, then reset the puzzle. To open the lock, you must deduce and navigate a series of internal hurdles. The core mechanism behaves differently than a standard padlock, requiring a change in approach to discover the solution. It features a balanced, medium level of difficulty that is accessible to newer collectors while still providing an engaging experience for seasoned enthusiasts.
