Overview of the ASP Sentry Handcuff Key | 81200

The Duty Tool That Earns Its Spot Every Shift

When you need to release a subject quickly and cleanly, a flimsy handcuff key is the last thing you want in your pocket. The ASP Sentry Handcuff Key 81200 solves that problem with a precision-built, hammer-forged stainless steel key engineered for the demands of full-time duty use.

Built the Way Professionals Expect

ASP manufactures the Sentry with heat-treated stainless steel, a plastic overmold body, and a diamond-pattern knurled grip that locks into your fingers even when your hands are wet or gloved. A secure pocket clip keeps it clipped to your shirt, pocket, or gear bag and ready in an instant. The images confirm a dual-end design: one end carries the standard key bit, and the opposite end features ASP's exclusive backset tip that speeds up insertion into tight keyways.
