The UK dates back to the 1700s and has a knife problem but we don’t talk about that or ban knives

To be fair, if you banned knives, how would you be able to perform one of those famous british stabbings. As a tourist, visiting London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds or even Glasgow just wouldn’t be the same.

It’s practically a British rite of passage.

Can you really say you’ve had the proper UK experience if you haven’t been stabbed? I myself was stabbed 17 times on my last outing to Brighton.

Aww, you’re so lucky! I’ve only been there once, and only got 5.

When the UK has fully automatic knives that can stab multiple people in microseconds then we can compare apples to apples but until then I will take a knife problem over guns in a micro heartbeat.

Man, a minigun that shoots knives would be awesome.

That would be cool

If I’m not mistaken they don’t exactly take kindly to even letter openers. So you’d be incorrect.

Seriously do you have to do a background check for a pairing knife grow up

yggstyle ,

Just posting facts boss. If that bothers you then maybe do a fact check beforehand.

To respond though: most people typically don’t need a daily driver knife… and if they do: a pen knife or box cutter is probably sufficient. Generally speaking- the less dangerous things in immediate reach of someone having a breakdown is probably better and likely saves lives.

Ironically their knife control is tighter than some state’s gun control.

But you already know why they don’t ban knife.
