Authentic Design and Functionality

These handcuffs are a faithful replica of historical shackles. They consist of two D-shaped wrist cuffs connected by a short yet sturdy chain with a swivel element to prevent tangling.

A Must-Have for Every Warden (and Rogue)

Whether you're a stern jailer, a bounty hunter, a captain of the city guard, or, conversely, an infamous bandit or pirate, these handcuffs will add the right atmosphere to your role. They are an excellent prop for theatrical performances, film shoots, LARP battles, themed events, or escape games. Remember, however, that this is a functional replica and must be handled responsibly.

An Interesting Fact: Shackles and Cuffs Through the Ages

Handcuffs and shackles are among the oldest tools for restricting freedom. Used since antiquity, their basic design has changed little over the centuries. In medieval times, shackles were often massive and deliberately uncomfortable, typically made of iron or steel. They served not only to secure prisoners but were also a visible symbol of justice or, conversely, oppression. The discovery of shackles in archaeological digs often indicates the former presence of a jail, court, or place of punishment.
