Advanced Handcuff Hacking

Presented at HOPE Number Nine (2012), July 13, 2012, 6 p.m. (60 minutes).

Handcuffs always have been a special kind of challenge to lockpickers. This talk will cover advanced manipulation techniques including improvised tools, hidden and 3D-printed keys, and exploiting design weaknesses of various handcuff models. Also, the newest handcuffs produced in the United States and Europe will be shown and explained, some of which haven’t even been introduced to police forces yet.
