Replica?

Thoughts please.
No labels or markings, other than “105”.

Thanks y’all!

It's not a replica of any particular cuff, but it is brand new from India or Pakistan.

Fake, unfortunately. The conical key shape and the welding marks are the giveaway.

Compare your irons to my original Hiatt and take a close look at the chain links and you’ll see that you have a replica.

Just to be pedantic. It does not replicate your leg iron. Nothing about them is the same except that there are 2 cuffs a chain and a ring. The manufacturing is different, but the style is similar. So it's not a fake, it's not a replica, it's just something new which is similar to something old. 

Ray's are clearly modern. I have a genuine set like Paul's, and some other genuine sets also. See my old posting about my collection. I've sold some, but also have some which are not shown on my posting. 

Deffo Indian, modern I'd say. I love India's older stuff but the modern ones lack quality control and care in craftsmanship. Plus newer ones are less meaty in the metal department. Might look nice as a wall display.
