Thread: Pea**** Scales

or peac0ck
or peac ock
or peadick sorry couldn't resist

Okay, this one already got reported. the word censor is pretty simple. it sees a word, and it crosses it out. of course there will be others like this. It'll be fun to see what else gets a false positive.

There just had to be razor scale supply companies "back in the day" that provided scales to different manufacturers. I can think of many examples of different razor brands that clearly have identical scales. Someone posted a "tiger striped" scaled razor of German manufacture (U.S. company name on tang). I have a razor in the EXACT same scales, also "M.I. Germany" but stamped with an unrelated U.S. Cutlery Co's name.

I have two Sheffield blades that have identical Windmill Scene scales as well from two different razor companies.

I guess dick is not considered as offensive as ****.

STOP!!! I cant take any more!!!!

Edit: Jimbo- My wife points out that Dick could be somebodys name. Nobody is called C0CK. I wonder if dick's girlfriend fanny gets asterisked out?

2nd Edit: Apparently not.

While c0ck maay not be anyone's name, Hitchc0ck is. If you check the Straight Razors in Film thread, you will see that Alfred Hitch0ck's name is censored as well. All of this really surprises me. After reading the Coochie Shave thread, I didn't think there was anything that could be cencored!

Hitchcocĸ was censored? wow....

Test: My mom had some pea****s back in the day. Once I kissed the pea**** on the head. I think I liked it. *snicker*

Wow How this thread has gotten off topic...
Fanny isn't a bad word in America, if it offends you, you need to explain it's meaning in the British vernacular to the moderators...
I'm sure they are going to try to refine the filter, so just hang in there. They wouldn't have put it up if members here hadn't made it a necessity.

On a side note, I'm working on getting them to change the ***** to Smurf and Smurfette.

so instead of seeing pea****, we'll see peasmurf
and those who insist on testing the moderators, will be allowed to tell them to go smurf themselves


Okay, Back on topic...
Back in the hay day of straight razors, there was a market in replacement razor handles.
A company such as sears couls also contact one of the makers, and order a shipment with their logo on it instead of the actual maker's logo. So if you buy a Sears Razor, it could very well be a Double Duck, or Dovo.
The peafowl handled razors were often made in the same manner, a company could simply order a batch of fancy handles, or an individual could purchase the handle and replace his broken or undesired scales with the fancy ones.
It's much the same as we have today with custom made scales, just on more of an industrial scale.

Fanny isnt offensive. Its rude I guess but I certainly dont take offense.

I guess it means the same as coochie. Does that explain it?

So next time you take your holidays in the UK dont talk too loudly about your 'fanny pack'. You get funny looks. (Here I think they are called bum-bags )
