Peaky Blinders Bullet Keyring | Laser Engraved .303 British Cartridge
A Real Bullet. A Real Design.
Most Peaky Blinders merchandise is printed on mugs, t-shirts, and poster prints. This is different. This keyring starts with a genuine once-fired .303 British cartridge – the round that served British and Commonwealth forces from 1889 through both World Wars – and laser engraves the iconic Peaky Blinders design directly onto the brass casing.
The engraving is cut into the metal by a precision laser, not printed onto it. It won’t peel, fade, or wear off with daily use. The result is something that feels as solid and authentic as the show it represents.
About the Design
The Peaky Blinders design etched onto the casing captures the aesthetic of the show – the razor gang iconography that has made it one of the most distinctive British TV series of recent years. The .303 British cartridge is the authentic choice for this design – the round that would have been in circulation during the interwar Birmingham setting of the show, used in rifles returning from the trenches of the First World War.
It’s a detail that fans of the show will appreciate. The headstamp on the base of the casing – the manufacturer and date stamp pressed into the brass during production – is still visible, adding another layer of authenticity that no replica could replicate.
Add Your Own Personal Touch
For £3.99 extra we can add a second line of personalised engraving alongside the Peaky Blinders design – a name, a date, a short phrase, or initials. This turns an already distinctive keyring into something completely one-of-a-kind. Popular choices include a name, a birthday year, or a personal motto.

The .303 British Round
The .303 British was introduced in 1889 and remained in British military service for over sixty years – through the Boer War, the First World War, the Second World War, and beyond. It powered the Short Magazine Lee-Enfield, the Vickers machine gun, and the Lewis gun. In the post-WWI Birmingham of Peaky Blinders, .303 ammunition and the rifles that fired it were everywhere – war surplus flooding back into civilian life.
Carrying a .303 casing engraved with the Peaky Blinders design connects two pieces of real British history in a single object.
