Razor blades in flat caps are famous, but what were the real weapons of the Peaky Blinders? Unlike the TV show, the real Peaky Blinders gangsters never actually had razor blades sown into the peaks of their caps. So where did the myth come from and what were the real weapons used by the Peaky Blinders? This episode features Professor Carl Chinn who’s written numerous books about the history of the real Peaky Blinders gangs. Narrated by Strictly winner, former Lioness and Peaky Blinders super fan Karen Carney.
