For Sale: Antique German Transporkette (Transport Chain) – Excellent Condition
Offered here is an antique German Transporkette (transport chain restraint) in excellent condition, a classic continental restraint designed to securely fit virtually any wrist size.
Origin: Germany
Type: Transport chain restraint (“Transporkette”)
Condition: Excellent overall
Mechanism: Padlock slides shut, and the shackle locks automatically with the turn of the shackle

Historical Note: This style of restraint is historically significant — Houdini was famously challenged in Germany and taken to court, where authorities secured a set of Transporketten on his wrists to test his claim that he could escape any handcuffs. He reportedly freed himself within seconds. These restraints can also be seen referenced in Houdini’s 1910 book Handcuff Secrets and in contemporaneous accounts from the era.
A scarce and historically interesting European restraint connected to the golden age of escapology.
