Manufactured by Fetters (18 of 24)

The Fetters line is manufacturer for and distributed by Mr. S Leather and Fetters. Originally manufactured in the UK, they are now made in the US. The originals had fully welded hinges and were made of a shiny hard steel. The newer ones are not welded at the hinges and are of a softer (easier on the skin too) powder coated iron. They are made from 1.5" wide 1/8" thick strap iron. The hinges are rolled from the straps rather than separate. The locks are typically an allen wrench bolt in one side which screws into a nut on the other side. The key is distinctively cross shaped with a short allen key as the long extension.

The Pre-18th century design is based on historical patterns from the UK and europe. Simple and chunky.

Fetters Rigid Handcuffs + Boot Leg Irons Combination

Type: Combination
Manufacturer:Fetters

These hold ones wrists and ankles in line with each other. Much like the Fetters Rigid Handcuffs + Leg Irons Combination except that the Leg Irons are larger in diameter, 4", intended to fit over boots. Smaller legged individuals could probably shake the Leg Irons off, IF they could remove the boots with their wrists in the cuffs. One cannot move at all while wearing these not to mention the pain in the back, over time. Obviously intended as a torturous as well as restraining device. They have a single "standard" allen wrench bolt lock.
