There are many scenarios where a traveler might be illegally detained or even kidnapped in some of the worst parts of the world. Knowing how to free yourself might save you and your family from days, weeks, months, or even years of suffering. It's happened before, it's happening now, and it will happen again. Equipping yourself with hidden handcuff keys, razors, shims, and other micro tools is a great insurance policy against a potential life-altering event like that. But carrying a tool without testing it and practicing with it first is potentially a recipe for disaster. That's why this Chicago Color Coded Cutaway Handcuff is a great training tool to familiarize yourself with now, before anything happens. This is a single handcuff with aPlexiglas cover on one side which allows you to observe and learn the internal mechanism of one of the most common detention devices worldwide. You can see how a standard handcuff key unlocks the cuff, or practice with a shim and watch it slide between the ratchet and the teeth of the handcuff, releasing the locking mechanism. The Cutaway Handcuff functions with all standard handcuff keys, and comes packaged with one standard steel handcuff key. Add it to your training regimen and travel with the confidence that you're prepared for a worst-case scenario, no matter where you go.
