Keep in mind that if you've been handcuffed, it's highly likely that someone is going to take everything you have away from you to prevent your easy escape. You will need to hide something on your person if you believe capture or arrest is likely.

Thank you for your video. For those who are unaware, Swiss Army Knife Tweezers can be purchased separately for around $4 each. They are very small and can be concealed more easily than trying to hide an entire Swiss Army Knife. Also small handcuff made of metal or plastic can be purchased separately for around $5. Furthermore a small plastic handcuff key would not be detected by a metal detector.

I've hidden illegal things between my fingers in searches designed to find anything illegal, no matter how small. A strip of metal like tweezers would only be found on de-metallised personal search with a designed metal-detector, very rare occurance in captivity.

The plastic keys I was referring to are from Imminent Threat Solutions (ITS Tactical). These are called skeleton keys. It's the ITS skull logo at the top of the key. The eyes of the skull go all the way through, giving an easy pass through for a needle and thread. Also, this key is so small (the smallest handcuff keys I have seen) that you could pat directly on the key and not feel it through a shirt.

Jailhouse music: I Fought The Law, Ole Red, Smugglers’ Blues, Folsom Prison Blues, 30 Year Night, Chain Gang… You and I had a brief discussion over defeating swivel and hinged handcuffs a while back when you first introduced us to escaping handcuffs. One thing that could be added in the forward thinking process is to have some escape devices hidden away for either front or rear restraint. It wouldn’t do to have your escape tools hidden in the front and your hands end up cuffed behind your back. Also hope that whomever is detains you isn’t meticulous in patting you down. Oh, I wasn’t allowed to play any of that music for some reason in my last job.

I think the Bill of Rights affirms that it is legal to carry anywhere anytime. Btw....... Unless you are a official government military soldier of some kind then you are a civilian. A cop is also a civilian. A cop has no more rights than anyone else. In fact, it is the rights of the citizen that are extended to the police. We can arrest, we can carry arms and that's why the police can. We do not "take the law into our own hands" as they say. The law is already in our hands. We are Americans. Not serfs.

Great video Andrew. I teach Use Of Force and handcuff training. I’ve been in law enforcement for 21 years now. If you’re cuffed in the front you can continuously bang the cuffs multiple times on a hard surface and the inner cuff springs will dis engage. The only thing stopping someone from escaping is direct intense supervision. Great video again. Very impressive knowledge.
