It's just been on the news that from very soon if we buy a knife online in the UK we will have to collect them in person from the post office to prove we are over 18.Apparently this is to prevent children getting hold of knives as easily. It won't prevent one walking into the kitchen and taking one out of a drawer through will it. Just another stupid knife law
What If you ship it by ups or yodel or something?I really hate all this nanny state nonsense:(

So if using a courier presumably they'd want to see that when delivering to your door. Though I doubt yodel would care, they often just chuck my stuff over my 8ft gates.
Plus they was saying about people not being aloud knives in there house never smurfing ending ,collecting in the uk just gets harder and harder, and as for what we can carry I need to move to a jungle asap
Whatever people in US saying about California's gun laws I can just say the same about U.K. Knife laws.
It is illegal to:sell a knife of any kind to anyone under 18 years old (16 to 18 year olds in Scotland can buy cutlery and kitchen knives)carry a knife in public without good reason - unless it’s a knife with a folding blade 3 inches long (7.62 cm) or less, e.g. a Swiss Army knifecarry, buy or sell any type of banned knifeuse any knife in a threatening way (including a legal knife, such as a Swiss Army knife)
Simply just make it illegal to murder another person.
It really pissed me off when i had to get rid of my airguns, are knives next on the list i wonder, good luck policing that one..My mum bought me a SAK for my 13th birthday, never once entered my head to use it as a weapon Lets face it, if needed you have a choice of a Bantam or a big stick in a fight, im guessing most of us would choose the big stick, are they wanting 18+ signed -for collect at post office with big sticks?Knife laws are already here, i see no reason to go after the genuine legal knife user/carrier/collector here, go after the little scrote with the machete stuffed up his jumper in the town centre
