Hello fellow collectors,
recently I bought a pair of handcuffs (without markings) which are quite similar to old Schutzmarke "Deutsche Polizei". The are also made of aluminum and steel (bows). But they are 3cm wider, approximately 200 grams heavier and have a smaller cuff-diameter. Also the hinge is different - the Schutzmarke have a three part hinge but my new cuffs have only one large hinge like the GDR Vopo Hnadcuffs. The keyhole is also very interesting - there are two openings for the key bid (in 45 degrees - BTW: unfortunately I don't have a key). Any ideas?
Regards,
Atame
