Boy did I read that wrong no theres no blades with it you have fit them yourself. I'm using 7 o'clock blacks and they seem to be doing a good job

Nice hat.

Their boots are nice as well. Well made Goodyear welted boots. I am going to buy a pair or two if VAT is deducted off the prices.

A blade in the peak. They would swipe the blade across the face in a fight, hence Peaky Blinders. Glamourised by TV not nice in reality.
Back in London during the 60’s we would put a blade sandwiched in the sole of a shoe or boot. Stupid when I think about it.

Forget the Peaky Blinders beware the Millwall Dockers.

Thats a great picture and Millwall where always to be feared even to this present day. They got one of the best firms in football/soccer if not THE best

Thank you very much the cap was just the icing on the cake

By the way you have a nice cap.

Below the original Peaky Blinders

Family have followed Millwall since the club was founded. A family member was the first up on a doco made many years ago. In the 20s and beyond they would have to bring in more police if Millwall lost because of the domestic violence. Not always a proud history. I have lived in Australia since the early 1970s. I prefer more gentlemanly pursuits now days.

Back to the cap. It looks really good especially for cooler days. I really like this one. Great pick up. Happy Birthday.

Came in to say BA hat. Saw someone mention boots. Going to check them out as I am boot shopping! How timely.

I cannot find the boots. Anything close to what I am guessing you are talking about is in euros or something. Is this a NON american type item? I am currently looking at a cap toe in either the Thursday boot company or Wolverine 1000 mile cap toe of corse. I feel like the "peaky blinder" would be similar.
