Antique Forged Steel Handcuffs - 21403 Forged steel handcuffs of traditional chain-linked construction featuring heavy D-shaped lock bodies connected by a short swivel-link chain. The cuffs retain their original dark steel finish and exhibit the substantial hand-forged appearance characteristic of early law enforcement and correctional equipment. The design utilizes enclosed lock cases with key-operated mechanisms and a compact profile intended for durability and daily institutional use. Exhibits moderate to heavy wear consistent with age and use including oxidation, scratches, finish loss, scattered pitting, and age-related patina throughout. No key is present, and the locking mechanisms have not been tested. An attractive early law enforcement collectible with strong display appeal. 9” L x 2.25” W
