Bean Cuffs

I am trying to find my Bean cuffs but I think I would have to unload one or two storage sheds to do it so I am going to save time. Can anyone one direct me to a photo of the cuffs open and a good shot of the bow and it's ridges???????????

Norm,

I own the first set of Beans in the Restraints Blog photo. I also do photography and can take better shots of them this weekend if you need. Email me and let me know.

Dear Joe,
Thank you so much for the offer of the photos, how very nice of you. I believe I found what I am looking for at the restraints blogg.
Now unfortunately my memory is slipping that is why I was looking for the cuffs I have.
If I am correct I have the Bean Cobb cuff. Now I have not seen mine for years but if I am correct when you put the key in they unlock and stay unlocked until you press the little button or wheel.
Can you tell me if I am correct about that model? I will tell you why I want to know.
Again thanks so much. Norm

Norm,
You are correct about the Bean-Cobb. They stay unlocked until the button is pushed.

The Cobb's use a small flat key, while the other one that looks real close uses a bit and barrel key.

Thanks so much Ron and everyone. When I was 18 I bought a pair of these cuffs for 11 or 12 dollars from JH Trudell an old time escape artist. The old timers use to trick these even though they are easy to pick.
They would build up the last notches on the bow with weld and file them so they looked like the other notches but a bit higher.
If you locked the cuffs on the fist few notches they locked tight. But when you push the bow all the way in the last notches picked up the locking dogs/lever and left the cuff open. So just push the bows all the way in and the cuffs were open.
I am doing a little manuscript on handcuff kings and want to include this and other cuffs if I can remember them.
So again thanks to everyone Norm

Thank you Bruce. I am making a note to post it here when it is done. It is another free manuscript. I guess it will be out within six weeks. Norm
