This is a like new set of Hamburg handcuffs from KUB industries in Pakistan. One original key included.
The current bid is $9.50 with 8 bids.
UPDATE: SOLD for $73 after 24 bids. Logical, as that is the price new at HC warehouse.
These are also available in size large (7.5") at Handcuff Warehouse as Chicago model 1555 for $73 with 2 keys.
Also available in small (6.5") and large from Cuffstore for $79.99 through their website or Amazon store.
These are heavy cuffs made of nickel plated brass, although they are also available in stainless steel.
Matching leg irons, again in nickel plated brass or stainless, are also available from KUB, sold through Cuffstore, and in the past were available from Handcuff Warehouse. I bought a pair of the large nickel plated brass cuffs from Handcuff Warehouse many years ago for about $65 with two keys.
Here is a stock photo from KUB.
These are quality restraints in a vintage design. The cuffs snap shut, and there is a heavy swivel between the O rings. It should be noted however that the Hamburg lock is a low security lock; it can be easily opened with any small, flat, stiff object such as a small flathead screwdriver. A paperclip wouldn't work but a dinner fork or a small house key could be managed.
KUB offers these in three sizes, but I've only seen two sizes for sale online.
Chicago Handcuff Company imported a selection of the KUB line and had them stamped with their own name. Items bought directly from KUB or other small scale sellers are usually marked KUB or simply unmarked.
Here we have a very unusual collar and handcuffs from KUB. The current bid is $26 with 4 bidders.
UPDATE: SOLD for $371 after 12 bids.
This is a unique design by KUB using machine roller chain. This 420 roller chain is highly flexible in one axis with only slight flexibility on the opposite axis. It's essential a motorcycle chain, if you're familiar with that, or a significantly larger and heavier bicycle chain.
Both restraints close and lock using a recessed captive bolt and each includes a key.
The handcuffs are sort of Bagno design, with a unique middle piece, and the collar has an interesting design to hold the O ring.
KUB made an amazing variety of restraints, both historically based as well as fantasy designs. They typically sell wholesale to resellers. Though they will sell individual items to private persons, the logistics, shipping, and customs makes this a bit of an ordeal, and returns are not possible.
