Knife crimes in the US are 40% higher per head count (per capita) compared to the UK. Those that have lost loved ones to knife crime would be grateful that knife carrying is considered a serious crime.

@ we have more citizens than then the UK our percentages are going to sound crazy to you . I’ve never been stabbed or shot . You have to have common sense here . Stay out of the projects / Ghettos ! Don’t go into known problematic areas like known rough Bars/Pubs . Don’t do drugs stay away from people who do so you don’t get robbed . You’re more likely to die in a car accident here or die from big pharmaceutical giving you some bullshit drug that will give you cancer in five years

Nice review! I have seen many posts of folks commenting on “recycled steel” being an issue. I am familiar with heat treat process as well! Key here is the compromise between hardness & toughness! Not an easy task to engineer! Gransfors Bruk has got the right formula down pat, when it comes to hardness & not being brittle! Absolutely what is needed in an axe!

They took away the guns in the UK . So you cannot defend your self! And you think you should have to be licensed to have a knife are you kidding me !!!! I think you need to have bubble wrap all around you so you don’t fall down and hurt your self for that matter . It is all about control of the people by those that are afraid of their on shadow.

My Wegner pen knife with a non lockable 2 inch blade is illegal in the UK I know because the Police found mine in my bicycle tool kit during a stop and search and told me if they catch it on me again I could be liable for a 6 month prison sentence.

Read the government website regarding knife laws. The police man that stopped you told you a little porky pie. Read below taken from a police website. "I carry a small folding knife, am I breaking the law? No. You can carry a knife in public if it has a folding blade that is 3 inches (7.62cm) or less in length. However if any knife is used to threaten or intimidate it is considered an offensive weapon. Please note, lock knives are not classed as folding knives and are illegal to carry in public" Link below for the website. www.leics.police.uk/police-forces/leicestershire-police/areas/leicestershire-force-content/c/campaigns/2019/knife-crime/i-carry-a-knife-what-do-i-need-to-know/#:~:text=You%20can%20carry%20a%20knife,illegal%20to%20carry%20in%20public.

@UK_Outdoors. I know ,I was originally arrested for suspected breach of a civil court order which I got ,no further action on ,and the knife on my key ring I ended up going through the courts with , went from simple caution to possibly getting a suspended 6 mth sentence and told if found guilty they would of also wanted me to pay the court costs which would of amounted to close to £3500 I was given option of accepting the caution right to the end and nearly did to be honest at one point just get it over and done with but knew I was not guilty and took it the whole way wasn't a pleasant experience and was vilified by the system was shocked at how pressured I was to go guilty just been one of my life experiences and leave here for anyone to maybe think twice ,I got the no furthered action on the suspected breach before I refused the cation for the knife and it was solely just for the knife why I went to court just on its own

@@UK_Outdoors. The reason I carry a couple of knives and forks in my car is because I often go for fish and chips and sit in the car and eat them by the sea. Yes you can eat fish and chips with your fingers but why should we eat like a peasant. The days of eating out of newspaper have long since passed and so should the days are eating with your dirty fingers. I'm not that well these days so I no longer eat oysters ... but I used to. I'd often go to the fish monger in the market and ask him to open a couple of oysters for me so that I could eat them there and then on the spot. The request was nearly always declined on the basis that they didn't have an oyster knife. So one day I thought fuck you. I've been wearing stuff ahead of you. So I brought my own oyster knife from my kitchen with me. It is an extremely inoffensive tool. Absolutely no good for slicing and not much good for stabbing either. It was one of the very rounded types of oyster knife. The fish when I got poisoned out to me that I was risking it a bit that I carrying this knife with me. To be honest I hadn't thought about it. Anyway, The fish around I did open a couple of oysters for me. He struggled a bit ... but he didn't use my oyster knife at all: he used a screwdriver. 🙄
