Default Anyone know who makes this locking lug nut?

I seemed to have lost my lug key (I have multiple sets of lugs and keys, I guess it finally caught up to me). Before I go hacking stuff up to get these off, does anyone recognize these lugs? The previous owner put them on the car, so I've got no idea where he got them from or where I could get a replacement key. They are standard stock Honda wheel lugs, acorn seat and 12 x 1.5 thread.






Thanks for the help. And if anyone has an idea of how to get those off forcefully, let me know too.

I don't know if you can tell from the last picture, but it's not really as tall as the others. I think I'd have a hard time getting the clearance to use anything that comes in from the side like that

LOL wtf kinda lug nut is that?!!? It looks custom. If the gator grip doesn't work I am sure a machine shop could get them off.
