Visual Description
The Big 3 Puzzle lock is a replica of an Ancient Indian lock. These are made specifically to look old and worn, but in fact all details are brand new and of a great quality.
The puzzle consist of a big and heavy metal lock (approx. 1.5 kg) and a set of 3 interesting looking keys:
- Narrow key with a square hook
- Wide key with a square hook
- Wide key with a square hook and a hole
Safe to say all three keys are needed to solve the puzzle.
The Puzzle itself looks quite nice. The ornaments on the lock add a cool feel that this is something ancient and mysterious. The keys made in a similar fashion.
Main Features
The lock is quite heavy and probably will not suite for small children.
The solution is sequential and not entirely complex. You will find yourself following a pretty simple pattern and there are no complex combinations to proceed like some other Puzzle Locks. Just use the keys to the appropriate keyholes and you will be good.
There are quite a few tricks though, so don’t think it will be a breeze. Definitely it is advised not use too much force as you can actually bend the hooks of the key and soft-lock yourself.
Conclusion
Amazing puzzle that is not hard, but extremely fun to solve. You will feel like Indiana Jones (or Lara Croft, or Nathan Drake, or… well you got the pattern) while trying to lock pick that awesome piece.
Definitely would recommend that puzzle, as it is quite fun and that what matters in the end.

Assembly Tips
- Do not apply too much force when inserting the key in the key frame. There is a possibility that you will bend the key hook.
- If it does not go all the way through or you feel you need to apply excessive pressure — try a different key or a key frame. Wiggling the key inside the key frame can also help to find the right spot.
