Default UK map of knife crimes between April and June of 2007

Knives are tools and often made of metal

Must be nasty, my ISP blocks the link. Mind you, The Sun makes the National
Enquirer look intellectual

I'd be interested in learning what they consider a "knife crime." In
the UK, mere possession of most knives is a crime. They recently passed
legislation requiring all kitchen (chef, butcher, steak) knives to have
blunt tips so they couldn't be used for stabbing.


News to me

Municipal buses sport
messages extolling citizens to turn in their knives to the authorities.
It's gotten truly crazy.

Don't disagree, though

I no longer ship my knives to any part of the UK for this reason.
