Από το άρθρο που έβαλα πιο πάνω
Over the course of the show, the Peaky Blinders gang has used many weapons, from pistols to huge, military-grade machine guns. However, they started the show with one of their most historically famous weapons: Razor blades that they hid in their hat brims, allowing them to slash enemies in the face, filling their eyes with blood and giving the Blinders an upper hand in a fight. Unfortunately, historian Carl Chinn has told the Birmingham Mail that this novel, brutal weapon is almost certainly nothing but a myth. When the real Peaky Blinders roamed Birmingham, razor blades were still a luxury item that was well beyond their financial means, and Screen Rant notes that the weapons they actually used were far more practical than a novelty hat.
Radio Times tells us that according to popular myth, the gang got its name from the bladed, "blinding" peaks of their caps. Unfortunately, since the razor caps most likely didn't exist, this is also inaccurate. The historian Chinn says that the Peaky Blinders probably got their name because they liked to wear peaked caps, and Digital Spy notes that "blinder" was likely just a slang term for their fancy clothing. Still, it's understandable why the show went with the razor blade story. After all, it's far cooler to imply that the Blinders went around wearing James Bond villain hats than to admit that they just liked nice waistcoats.
