    Government consultation on banning large knives and machetes

    Are they defining all knifes with that blade length description or as a characteristic of zombie knifes? Edit - see text below. It’s how they describe a zombie knife or machete.

    Government consultation on banning large knives and machetes

    I think you are right. The zombie knifes have no practical purpose other than ‘show’. I’d imagine someone coming at you with a machete would be a terrifying experience.

    I certainly feel a disturbance in the force…or it’s a strong sense of deja vu.

    I’m intrigued. Could you explain further or better still show some photos of how you went about this?

    Same. I always have my phone with me. I justify it because I’m self employed and if I don’t respond to emails etc I don’t work!

    Interesting article about wolves in Europe

    The article was written about Europe where there is more space for the wolves. In the UK I’d like to see maybe Lynx reintroduced and I’m hopeful to see the Pine Martins that are some where in the New Forest. The wild boar population seems to be growing and I guess it will only be time before...

    New knife laws

    Did you read the previous thread comments? They aren’t banning serrated knifes or machetes, or cycle wheels, or swords, or suits of armour etc.

    Interesting article about wolves in Europe

    The article did say that human wolf interaction was minimal. The wolves are naturally cautious and wary of humans so there is/was little risk of incidents occurring. The UK is small island so reintroduction of wolves would probably not work here.

    Interesting article about wolves in Europe

    Best not bother then. Just make the wolves extinct because it’s too much effort to coexist. Most sheep are only breed to have lambs to be eaten anyway so I didn’t really see what the fuss is about. ;)

    New knife laws

    I think your knife is not classed as a zombie knife…. “Under a new definition included in these measures, a zombie-style knife is any bladed weapon over eight inches in length with a plain cutting edge and sharp pointed end that also has either a serrated cutting edge, more than one hole in...
