how many different keys are possible with these blanks?



Albert J asked:

a locksmith has 10 types of blanks for keys. Each blank has five different cutting positions and 3 different cutting depths at each position, except the first position, which only was two depths.

  4. Why does a prick like a needle in your finger hurt so much more than a cut?

Not matter to a good Locksmith I will say. So, it is Infinite. I could take a flat piece of Steel/Aluminum etc. and make any key if I have the original. The Blanks you mention just make it easier.
