Bertie Blade

The postman bent my Duffy, assuming none left?
 
To be fair that old one looks nothing like a blade it’s not going into a point. Although I suppose if it did it would have just cut through his hat anyway.

I like the one on the right better of the new ones it looks like he’s enjoying a fine robust Yorkshire ale whereas the one on the left is drinking some pissy Carling lager type shit. Stone Island badge looks a bit fake though.
 
Fk me! Bertie Blade is a JT, I never knew that!

That's because the original Bertie Blade was a nice friendly 'butter knife'. He was on the go decades before the aggressive cross Sabres badge of today. He was representive of the proud cutlers craft, long associated with the city of Sheffield, in fact, the polar opposite of that fucking stupid, club footed pirate twat Captain Blade :rolleyes:

Bent it, seriously? I’ll have a rummage see if I can find one buddy. Is it completely knackered?

Right at the butterfly/pin which you'd think would be the strongest point. Tried to bend back carefully, but it's a bit mashed unfortunately :)

Done some new pin badges of a modern take on the old mascot Bertie Blade. Not had many done, as usual. Thought I’d share on here as haven’t been doing so as much lately.

Bought my self one of each. Any news on when the brooks ones will be done? Just wondering as I am a bit guttered about the last one as I missed the Clarke one when they went on sale and didn't manage to get one. I have got the Duffy one and would like to add brooks one to my collection as well.

Best bet is just keep tabs on Instagram and Twitter. I’ll try to remember to post it on here too. Should be soon.

Have a like just for that 1889..... this will keep going throughout the day.:D
 
Plenty of pins coming soon. Another bobble. More mugs and working on some retro shirt remakes at the moment.
 
GoM, can I suggest that you put the approximate dimensions of your pin badges on your web-site

My Duffy badge is great, however, you must have forgotten to pack the accompanying magnifying glass ;)

One of my, admittedly aged, friends received one as a Christmas present from his daughter (at my suggestion) and had to ring me up to find out what it was :eek:
 
They’re supposed to be that small/size buddy. 25mm as standard on the longest part. A pin badge any bigger just doesn’t work IMO.

Feedback appreciated.
