The AHK3-rf Advanced Handcuff Key is the newest essential tool for your everyday carry lineup.
The AHK3-rf is simple, unobtrusive, and nearly unbreakable. It will disappear onto a shock-cord bracelet or wrist strap like the ubiquitous GTFO Wrist Strap, until you need it. It’s a perfect tool for defense against illegal detention or kidnapping in high-risk, high-threat areas.
The AHK3 is designed to counter the security features found on high security handcuffs such as key blocking blade, large keyway pin, a deep set keyhole, etc. It also features a cut groove to indicate the direction of the key-flag when it's inside the key-way, and even has a full depth slit in the key flag to counter the stainless steel security plate on ASP High Security handcuffs.
To install the AHK3-rf on a shock-cord bracelet or GTFO-Wrist-Strap:
- Position the channel of the key over the shock-cord,
- Pull and stretch the shock-cord,
- Insert shock-cord inside the key,
- Release the cord.
The shock-cord will then expand to its normal size inside the key.
The AHK3-rf works on the following handcuffs plus more that share the common key-way:
- Alcyon
- ASP
- Clejuso
- Hiatts
- Kyoung Chang
- Peerless
- Ralkem
- Russian BRS-1
- Smith & Wesson
- TCH
- Uzi
- Walter
- Yuil
The AHK3 also operates handcuffs that have a bent pin in the keyway that would otherwise block a standard handcuff key.
'Tactical' handcuff keys are prone to breaking when such excessive stress/torque is applied. This is a known issue with polymer handcuff keys that can result in a blocked keyway. If the AHK breaks it has been designed to fragment into small parts that can be shaken free from the working parts, so it should not block the keyway and therefore allow for a back-up key to be used.
Make sure to add these unobtrusive yet essential items to your everyday carry lineup. These keys are sold in packs of two; because two is one and one is none.
