Here is a very interesting restraint belt:
This restraint set had a high bid of 535 British Pounds /$821 (Plus 14 Pounds Shipping).WW1 British Military Leather Belt with Handcuffs 1917
Very unusual item in a lifetime of collecting military items I have not seen one before
This thick brown leather belt measures 111cm long and is 7.5cm wide and is hand stitched
There are five rectangular cut outs where a steel piece goes through to adjust the waist size
The two steel handcuffs that are attached by large brass rivets on each side are marked ‘HIATT 13’, the key is marked ‘13’
The front cuff is smaller and marked ‘HIATT 29’
Inside the belt is stamped ‘17’ under a military broad arrow, the outside of the leather is stamped ‘H.R.G 18’ and ‘5A22’
All the cuffs are working and leather and cuffs in very good condition - eBay (24 Feb 2010)
