…it is sad that what, effectively, is a hobby for so many, is being damaged by a few irresponsible people that think using knifes as weapons and stars symbols rather than tools somehow makes them a "bigger" person.
I agree with the age verification although, my experience of it is that it is rarely actually asked for. A couple of times when I have order from Heinnie's (they send out with the knife symbol etc that requires a signature) the post has not asked for age verification/date of birth. So, although I wholly approve of the age verification system, clearly it is not always enforced at point of delivery.
