Metal Handcuffs & Ankle Shackles

Steel cuffs restrain three different ways, and the difference is not "more" versus "less" — it is a different experience. A chain lets the limbs move within its length; a rigid bar fixes a stance and refuses to let it change; sheer weight restrains by heft rather than geometry. Knowing which you actually want is the whole decision.

The Oath wrist shackles are oval flat-band cuffs with the lock machined into the band, joined by a short chain — versatile, still able to turn. The Oath ankle set runs a rigid bar where others use a chain, so the stance stays set. The Anvil is the heaviest gauge we carry: a two-centimetre wall and roughly five kilograms on the ankles, restraint by weight you cannot ignore.

All are 304 stainless, radiused and deburred where they meet skin, and sized for men's or women's wrists and ankles. The guides below cover rigid versus chain, how to measure so machined steel fits first time, and which grade and finish actually protect the skin.
