Hello handcuffs-experts,
How can I determine if a Stotz handcuff is original or a reproduction? Are there any special markings on the real old Stotz? On a Stotz I've seen a coat of arms with a horse on it (on the side near the side near the lockcase-barrel). I have a police nipper in my collection with quite the same horse on it - I do not think that this nipper is very old, so the Stotz is probably quite newly made, too. Any ideas? Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Atame
