The Ultimate Heist: Tracking Down the World’s Rarest Handcuffs

There are collectors, and then there are obsessive seekers of history. Michael Griffin, the world’s greatest living escape artist, is both. While he has stunned audiences with impossible escapes, Griffin’s true obsession lies in the artifacts he has spent a lifetime defying—handcuffs, leg irons, thumb cuffs, and every restraint imaginable.

The Search for Hidden Treasures

At oldhandcuffs.net, Griffin is building the largest, most significant collection of handcuffs ever assembled. His journey has taken him to antique shops, police departments, private collections, and even abandoned jails in search of rare and one-of-a-kind restraints. Griffin owns several of the legendary Houdini’s own handcuffs. Each find tells a story of law enforcement history and serves as a reminder of the very devices that have challenged his legendary escapes.

The Most Coveted Handcuffs in the World

Michael Griffin is on the hunt for the rarest handcuffs ever made. Some of the most sought-after items include:

  • 19th-century hand-forged shackles

  • Custom-modified police restraints

  • Prototype escape-proof handcuffs

  • Antique leg irons from notorious prisons

  • Handcuffs used in historic arrests or escapes

Every new acquisition fuels his ultimate goal: to create a public, world-class handcuff museum where people can see these incredible pieces up close. But to do that, he needs your help.
