… for LEOs to have to look for. Unique Titanium just sent me the company’s latest newsletter with this: http://www.uniquetitanium.com/Bootlace-Cuff-Key_p_547.html
The bootlace cuff key is made from blackened brass. The provided photo doesn’t make the key look too awfully covert. However, the text clarifies that the key comes with a black rubber cover. That would make the key much more difficult to discover during a search.
What will they think of next?
A handcuff key that is hidden in a belt buckle (Oh, wait, they have those already).
Hum, how about a handcuff key in a pocket knife? (Dang, they have those, too.)
OK, how about a handcuff key that can be hidden behind a shirt button? (Check.)
A handcuff key that can be concealed in a zipper pull? ( … never mind, been done, too!)
Actually, I think police manufacturers need to work with the Bureau of Justice Assistance to improve the security of a new breed of handcuffs.
