#3yep, they are a bit different, was able to obtain 6 set's of them at different times from the same people 2 sets have fig 8 links,2 sets have 2bar links,one set has twisted chain links, and the handcuffs /small child leg irons set has the fig 8 links all show quality smith work 2 sets have riveted/pin hinges the rest have backstrap type bent over hinges only some bend under instead of back. the handcuff set has the decorative band around them and it came with a prong type lock ,of course that doesn't mean it was the original maybe/maybe not! the only part missing on just 1 set is the (what i call the buckle) it goes over the puzzle side before the chain is fished thru them!some of the links show a lot of wear,it amazes me at the thought that some one or more then one person had to wear them so long as to wear the links down,one thing is for sure u can't run with them on! have tried and the best u can do is a old man walk / shuffle!
