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.

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.

As an escape artist back in the late 70's, I knew a number of ways to open cuffs. Had never seen the tweezers to defeat the double lock before. Thanks!

My favorite SAKs don't have tweezers or toothpicks. These are the alox versions. As an armored courier, I had plastic handcuff keys sewn to the inside of my shirt tail. If cuffed, pull out my shirt tail and use the key.

Felix Immler The Swiss Army Knife Guy also showed how to pick a lock with the tweezers, paired with your video it makes Swiss Army Knife Tweezers an excellent S.E.R.E. Tool, Thanks sir .

Great video and a fantastic example of why, when you’re the one putting the cuffs on the “baddy”, you must ensure the keyholes are facing the baddy’s elbows, not his fingers.

I love that little Swiss Army knife. It’s perfect for little medical kits or hygiene kits. It’s got the scissors and tweezers and toothpick a little blade and file. It’s a great design and size. Great video.

I was trained in security to always cuff someone with the keyhole facing up the arm. I dont believe this would be impossible, but likely much more difficult.

Thanks for the video!

I only hope I'm to old now to ever need this, but knowledge is power. An your right Andy, never saw anybody else do this. Thx for the vid Andy

Another useful little tool to use them are a good thick safety pin and a paper clip.

A person really needing this skill likely has to practice on S&W, Hiatt, Peerless and whatever enemy brands available in both hinge and chain. Practice behind your back, in the dark, cold, hungry, tired and maybe even sick and injured.

You never dissapoint. Great videos. Thank you for sharing as always.

Nice way to carry a concealed shim!
Once again a good example for thinking outside the box! Thanks for sharing!

I've got 8 Swiss army knives (all different) and I love them all. There's nothing they can't do.

[Haywain]

Like to see you try that with a pair of rigid cuffs🤔. There aren’t many police services in the UK that use the older style of cuffs with a chain separating them anymore.

[Bulsajo]

I'm not sure I'll ever be able to (or ever need to) use this info but i wanted to compliment you on your teaching style in your videos- clear voice and audio, concise, easy to follow along, great camera work, production never hinders the information.

[terryrichards]

I wish I knew that 40 years ago! I was at work and my son locked his self in the handcuffs and we didn’t know where the key was. I had to leave work and come home and cut the handcuffs off. I just wish I would’ve known that then. Thanks for another great video. I remember that if I ever get handcuffed, which I hope never and I hope they don’t take my Swiss army knife lol.😅

[guadalupeskitchen]

That explains the Swiss Army's nickname, "The Uncuffables".

[tiggalong]

There is another type of hand cuff you see a lot in Europe in the uk there called speed cuffs which don’t have a chain but are solid between each side making them more difficult if not impossible to pick depending on what way the keyhole is and if the double lock active.
I don’t remember seeing these in the US but worth knowing there out there.
