Stupid Question No Doubt!

OLD STEEL HAND SHACKLE TRANSPORT ENEMY / SLAVE (#0018) on Jun 17, 2021 | The Weather Master in India (liveauctioneers.com)

Please try to remember that I am an absolute "Newbie" as everyone else was at one time but these have got to be typical Indian or Pakistani 100% FAKES!
Am I beginning to learn a few things?
They are getting better at making "Antiques!"
Many Thanks!
Be Well,

They don't look that old to me.
They are better than most and there is the possibility that someone did make them for prisoner use in some 3rd world place.
They are crude and crude does not make them antiques.
Not sure if I would call them fakes but I would not pay much for them either.
