A famous puzzle (box? lock?) that has brought pleasure and/or pain to many puzzlers.

Just turn things over, slide things back and forth carefully, change positions etc.

No Banging, No Rotational Moves, No Force Required at all!

...and remember there is No Hurry, please take your time, and be sure you don't forget anything at the end... or pain awaits...
