New reading material coming to Metalbond’s Prison Library
I know a lot of you are really into the stories and true accounts of bondage adventures available here on this site. Well you guys are in luck, because in the coming days and weeks I am going to be posting a whole lot more — including stuff by Bind, Mortice Deadlock, Mikeintightpants, ChastitySub, a brand-new story by “Trust Us” author Mark, and more.
In addition, those of you who are familiar with the writings of John Strickland will be pleased to know that he has written another installment to his “Rainy Days in Oregon” series. His latest bondage novella is called “Zac’s 21st Birthday,” and it is more than 100 pages. He gr
aciously sent me a copy via email, and I have been enjoying it immensely. (Hint: the picture shown here will give you a clue as to some of what happens.) John is allowing a “teaser” from his new work to be posted here on Metalbond, and you can read an excerpt by clicking here. At the end of the excerpt is contact information for the author, so those of you who want more can write him and beg for more.
Meanwhile, as always here on Metalbond, you can read the most recently added stuff by going under Prison Library and clicking on the sub-tab for NEWEST STORIES.
Guest Author: Mikeintightpants on Getting cuffed in the UK
Getting cuffed in the UK
By Mikeintightpants
If you ever get apprehended here in the UK in circumstances where the officer deems it necessary to apply handcuffs (or better still, if you meet up with a friendly cop!), you’ll find yourself wearing one of the sets of cuffs shown in this photo that I’ve assembled from items in my collection.
Clockwise from the top, the cuffs are: Hiatt Speedcuffs, Hiatt chain cuffs, Chubb Escort cuffs, Chubb Arrest cuffs, ASP chain cuffs.
Hiatt Speedcuffs (model 2103) are the cuffs used by most of our uniformed cops here in the UK. They’re rigid cuffs resulting in considerable restriction of arm movement and allow for easy “stacking” of the hands either in front or behind the back. There are several different designs of carrying pouch which fit onto a duty belt. Most universal cuff keys are suitable.
Hiatt chain cuffs (model 2010) are similar to regular chain cuffs, the main difference being that they’re slightly smaller than standard swing-through cuffs such as Smith & Wesson 100’s and they keep the hands considerably closer together. These have effectively been superseded by the Hiatt Speedcuffs, though many officers still carry a pair as back-up. There are several different designs of carrying pouch which fit onto a duty belt, although some officers carry them loose in their back pocket. Most universal cuff keys are suitable.
Chubb Escort cuffs (model 1K52) – a.k.a. Chubb Transport cuffs. These cuffs are used by the UK prison service for transporting prisoners and are extremely expensive. They are not issued to police patrol officers and not used by any of our police forces. I am not aware of any carrying pouches for these as they are not carried on duty as a matter of course but applied in prisons and courts for prisoner transportation to another secure area where they are removed. The cuffs are not swing-through and have 3 locking positions to accommodate smaller wrists. In addition, sets of metal inserts are available that further restrict the internal diameter of the bracelets; the inserts come in 3 different sizes, thus giving overall the possibility of 9 different internal diameters for each cuff. High security cuffs with either 9 or 10 lever locks requiring keys cut from restricted blanks. Cuffs can be keyed individually for each pair (there are millions of possible combinations) or they can be keyed in batches to suit individual departments.
Chubb Arrest cuffs (model 1K70) – a.k.a. Chubb Detainer cuffs. Secure swing-through cuffs but very expensive and allow the hands to be much further apart than standard cuffs such as Smith & Wesson 100’s. Until recently they were standard issue to police officers in our Sussex police force but because of cost, new entrants are now issued with ASP chain cuffs (see below). Universal cuff key does not work with these cuffs which require a special key. The keys can be coded to any one of approximately 20 different combinations. Carried on duty belt in leather or nylon pouch.
ASP chain cuffs – these cuffs are now very much in evidence as being used by law enforcement agencies worldwide and, yes, here in England too. Our Sussex police have now moved their allegiance from Chubb Arrest cuffs (see above) to these ASP chain cuffs, purely for reasons of cost. These cuffs are applied in exactly the same way as other standard chain cuffs, work with a universal cuff key and are usually carried on the duty belt in a suitable pouch or on a cuff strap.
Hiatt hinged cuffs (model 2050) – when I assembled the cuffs for the above photo I forgot to include the Hiatt hinged cuffs that are used by just one of our UK police forces – Northamptonshire – who prefer to use these hinged beauties instead of rigid Speedcuffs. Officers are issued with 2 pairs that are carried in pouches in their hi-viz jacket. Universal key, once again.
Incidentally, since the demise of Hiatt as a handcuff manufacturer a few years ago, their premises and manufacturing facilities were taken over by TCH who now market virtually identical products under their own name, albeit with different model numbers. Therefore, references above to Hiatt should also be read as including TCH.

Welcome to Str8Hell
Hey fellas, I know we are all still trying to process the switch of the Straight Hell site over to BreederFuckers, but there is yet another site that deserves some attention — and it is called Str8Hell! (Let’s all try not to get too terribly confused.)
Anyway, this new Str8Hell site looks pretty cool. Here are some images from Str8Hell:

New male BDSM story added: The Device Part 3
Hey fellas, check out the latest bondage fiction here on Metalbond:

It’s the conclusion of this one, with an author’s critique at the end.

Master Lock Electronic Combination Lock
The future of padlocks is here.
The Master Lock Electronic Combination Lock features an electronic directional interface that offers speed, ease of use, and personalized codes. You even get a backup password stored online, along with programmable guest passwords. And if you’re doubting the security of this digital lock, take note of the anti-shim technology and the boron carbide shackle for increased cut resistance.
Of course it has its limitations too. For obvious reasons, these electronic locks cannot get wet, and are for indoor use only.

Mikeintightpants assesses TuffKuffs
This “handcuff review” is from Mikeintightpants:
I recently had the opportunity to wear and assess the new TuffKuffs, with the aid of my buddy Chris G, who applied the cuffs and acted as photographer.
It has to be said that the cuffs are of extremely good quality, though expensive at around US$90 a pair. They are effective and reasonably “comfortable” when worn in front, though they can be extremely uncomfortable when worn behind the back. However, there is a design fault because although the cuffs can be rotated in one direction only, there is nothing to prevent them being turned more than the 90 degrees demonstrated in the manufacturer’s video, resulting in the hands and arms being held in a position that cannot have been intended by the manufacturer. If the over-rotating is done when the cuffs are applied in front, the result is somewhat akin to having the arms folded and is not uncomfortable — but over-rotate when they’re on behind the back, and they are extremely (and I mean extremely!) uncomfortable.
The first 6 pics show me wearing the TuffKuffs and the final 2, taken during a different assesment session, show the effect of over-rotating, which is clearly demonstrated by another buddy, Chris F, when I was cuffer and photographer.
Incidentally, in the promotional video produced by TuffKuff, they say that you put the cuffs on “the same as every [other] set of cuffs you’ve used.” But in my view, if these cuffs are applied in the conventional way (from the top with the bows locked under the wrists), they don’t work in the way that’s intended — and if this was done when they are behind the back the result can be very painful and no prisoner could be escorted in a cruiser whilst wearing them in that position.
If you can get hold of a pair of TuffKuffs, get somebody to help and try ’em yourself, you’ll see what I mean. It would be good to hear from anybody else who’s already had the chance to assess this latest addition to the restraints market.
Great to have the cuffs in my collection, but I can’t see them catching on for use as a street arrest cuff.
