Switchblade combs

[Pharaoh]

I've got a small collection of switchblade combs. They're like a real switchblade except a comb flicks out instead of a blade. Besides the standard plain black plastic one I've got a cow, crocodile, dragon, silver metal, black metal and a brown, wood effect, plastic one. I live in a seaside town and there are lots of shops that sell trashy toys and jokes, so they're easy to find here. I don't know how many different types there are, maybe I've got them all, but whenever I see a new one I buy it.

My point is that I haven't got a point, but I have got a comb. :)

And, by the way, the breath in your sig should have an e on the end. Breathe.

thanks for telling me that i was drunk when i typed it
oh and by the way
i have real switch blades , so while i stab you in the heart you can comb your hair
at least you will look stylish when you die right ?

[SUFFER]

also I thought you said you have a collection right ?
how is "A" comb considered a collection ?
(hey if your going to fuck with my drunken spelling
im going to fuck with your continuity)

This forum is about toys isn't it? I have a real switchblade too, as a matter of fact, so shut it.

Here are some of my TOY switchblade combs. I wondered if anyone had any different versions.

I like the way the comb part on the brown one is curved like a real blade. how much do they all cost?

I think that's my favourite too. They don't cost much, about £1.50. I think that's about $2.50.
I think they've been going since the fifties, I've seen them advertised in old comics. I'd like to get an old one but I haven't seen any yet.

I live in a seaside town with alot of trashy jokes.

[SUFFER]

ah , now we are getting somewhere
and
i have never seen half of those before
have you check with the company that makes them?
or are they made by one of those companys in like china or thailand with no name ?

[Pharaoh]

They're all made in Hong Kong or China and they've got no name, just a symbol. I've looked on ebay but I haven't seen any yet that I haven't got, there are some with very slight variations but I'm not really interested in them. I think it'll probably remain a small collection.

Since I can never find real switch blades due to their illegality, I have always wondered if replacing the comb on one of those with a blade would work. It would have to be a fairly sturdy one though.

[Pharaoh]

I think it would work but it wouldn't be very strong. The mechanism is exactly the same as on a real switchblade, they've even got a lock, but they're all a bit tinny. It would look just like a real one if you did it well enough though.

Although I've just realized that they don't lock open like a real one would. The lock they've got just stops them from coming open accidentally. So I wouldn't recommend using one in a fight or you'll probably just chop your finger off.

oh it works , like shit
i did that once when i was younger out of boredom
you can get a blade in there , but dont expect to go stabbing anything with it
cuz its not very sturdy , and sometimes the blade flys out
which can be fun and hazardous at the same time !!!

My brother and I used to buy those at fourth of july celebrations. God, those things were stupid. You never seem to notice that the time though.
