I compiled my ground-breaking posts on the Tatler Handcuff into a single article:

• The Search for the Holy Grail of Houdini Handcuffs – The Tatler Cuffs

Submitted it to the Linking Ring magazine and had an edited version of it published in the April 2024 issue.  Suffice it to say, I believe the cuffs are out there and will surface one day.
