Just checked your photos, they are modern repros. Not really desirable to collectors.I bought some old handcuffs - old - turn the key in and they unlock.

Yep. They're Indian or Pakistani tourist trade repros. The brass tag is a sure giveaway, although the construction of the cuffs is a rock-solid identifier.I bought some old handcuffs - old - turn the key in and they unlock.

Thanks all for the input. I paid very little for them and have no intention on selling them 99.9 % of the people that will view them will think they are what they say they are. They are very old and worn hard. They work. They are a cool piece for the little money I paid.I bought some old handcuffs - old - turn the key in and they unlock.

"plaque" almost never sounds good ... . If it has even been "aged", and someone tries to sell it off, I would actually consider that fraud.I bought some old handcuffs - old - turn the key in and they unlock.

funny stuff but most of you are passionate about your cuffs I like most people are not. We are passionate on old stuff. Again I could care less the real history behind these there is not anyone on this site that knows the history behind these actually cuff. Maybe a bounty hunter from the late 1800's used them to haul in killers- you do not know i do not know. Like I said i paid little to nothing for them and the guy that sold me them knew nothing about their history and if he did he didn't tell me. Someone offers me big bucks I will take it, on the same grounds as I bought them, i know nothing about them. Its the buyers job to research what they buy.I bought some old handcuffs - old - turn the key in and they unlock.

Anytime anyone post stuff anonymous it is funny to begin with. I have an historian checking them out as I laugh. If you think they were made in 2006 you have to be the biggest idiot in the world and do not know iron and manufacturing. The iron alone is from early 1900s if not late 1800s. They may be reproductions but they are old. The key chamber is so worn and beat up it would have to be played with 24/7 since 2006 to get it in that condition. I will wait for the historian to check them out then I will sell them as is. The cuffs that were put on Billy the Kid.I bought some old handcuffs - old - turn the key in and they unlock.
