Curiouser & curiouser. One side of the brass version of the 5P8500 always had the Cat logo, the other side had "5P8500 Do Not Duplicate". I wonder what the 417-0110 has on it..?

I've only got one of the brass one and tens and tens of the newer ones.
Wasn't sure if there was anything older than the bare key.
Always find it amazing there all keyed alike and nearly everyone has a dam cat key haha

It's probably one of those Chinese knock-offs and Cat are buying it from eBay ......

I've lost count of the number of keyboards I've ruined through the involuntary exhalation of a mouthful of tea or coffee when laughter strikes without warning......

Thanks for a useful post. I run the old style flat key because they lay flat on a key ring. That third generation key will eat pockets when new if on a key ring.

. The early ones had the Cat "Pac Man" symbol, then they went to the newer logo.

Hello Nige!
I’ve been searching all over online for a 1st edition cat key and I came upon your thread that talks about cat keys. Will you sell me a old first edition brass cat key? I absolutely love heavy machinery and I think it would be pretty cool to have a old school key. Thank you!!
Sincerely, Wesley B.
