An ordinary hacksaw
If it's a hardened shank? Don't think so.
I still have a Master padlock from years ago. I had a storage unit for
a awhile. Crooks cut off all the locks along one side of the building
and stole property.
My lock has jaw marks, but bolt cutters never got more than 1/3 into
the shackle. Maybe the cutters used were too small.
I don't know why, but this reminds me of how the stories of giant squids
that were 100's of feet long got started. Whales were found with sucker
mark scars nearly a foot in diameter, which led oceanologists to believe
they were attacked by giant squids. Further study showed that baby
whales
often get attacked by large squid that leave sucker marks an inch or two
in
diameter. As the whales grew, the marks enlarged like writing on a
balloon,
until they appeared to be so large only a colossal squid could have made
them.
That's very funny. And I feel safer now.
Never know when you're going to out fishing and have a huge "20,000 Leagues
Under the Sea" type killer squid come for you.
