Hey Jerry, I am posting a link to an earlier thread on Darley cuffs.

You can see in the pictures the type of key you need.

I don't own a set of Darley cuffs myself, But the key looks like the same as goes to

the early Peerless handcuffs.

For sure there are members of the forum who can supply you with 1 or 2 keys.

Good luck.

Be advised not to purchase any ( Taylor ) brand replacement keys.

I have a pair of Darleys for which I needed keys. The keys look exactly like solid Peerless, but original Peerless were too fat to fit. I easily enough cut out a working key from brass stock. It works flawlessly and was easy to make. Just size it to fit and it should work fine.

*If anyone has Darley keys for sale, I'm also looking for a factory key for display.*
