Urban Escape & Evasion When Kidnapped



Hi everyone

In today’s post I would like to discuss escape tactics when it comes to being handcuffed in a kidnapping situation, this is not for escaping from handcuffs when the police arrest you.

Now in today’s market there are countless covert universal handcuffs keys. The problem with them is that people do not think of where to strategically place them on their persons so they can get to them when their hands are cuffed behind there back.

People will place them on chains around their neck which is next to impossible to get to. Some people will place them inside the bottom of the leg hem. Depending on how you are restrained this may or may not work.

This best and most convenient area I have found to place a covert universal handcuff key is where your belt would be by your lower back. Regardless if both your hands are handcuffed to the rear you can obtain your key regardless if you’re seated in a chair, sitting on your butt on the ground or laying down you will still be able to obtain your universal handcuff key.

If you key is on a neck chain you won’t, or if located in a pocket, hanging from a shirt button or on a lower part on the hem on your pant leg, you will be having a very tough time getting to it.

So here are the not so good and good covert universal handcuff key products on the market today.

Not so good because it's to hard to get to...





Good as long as there are situated at your back near the belt line








Good if your jewelry isn't removed






You be the judge and test them out. Remember if you can’t get to your gear it’s useless.
