Yes, I recently discovered this too.   Although there is a nominal 
specification for the key blank, in fact the groove in the blank varies dramatically 
in position from one brand to the next, which is very odd.   When getting 
keys made for Darrell Mountjoy's Pantera, I had to go to a locksmith who had 
key blanks of several different brands, and it took much trial and error to 
come up with two that worked.
