Politics are mainly about emotion and rarely about facts. My perception of BREXIT from afar was that it was based on emotions and feelings with few tangible facts. The results don't seem to be what either side expected. 9/11 was initially about the facts but, ended up being about the emotions...

Gun deaths are a lot more likely between unknown persons during an act of crime. A knife attack generally is pretty rare during a common crime.

I haven't been around any knife deaths in the USA. Sure, the USA has some stabbings but, they rarely make the news, normally are between people known to each other, and often are gang-related and in a gangland area, not public parks or schools for example. The UK on the other hand makes the...

With your budget, I would say two better options for those tasks is better than one that does neither as well. https://www.lamnia.com/en/sc/5/knives/fixed-blade-knives?mid=826 These Rokka knives are really good and are worth consideration...

Nathan Carothers does simply awesome work. It is hard to get one of his blades because so many people want them. For a one and done knife, CPK is the way to go. Not sure how hard it would be to get on into the UK these days and at what cost.

First, TLDR all of this thread. Knives like that were popular a long time ago but, weren't really practical to the vast majority of people that bought them. Even if given one, I'm not sure what I would do with it personally as I have much better tools for the jobs it could do (meaning legal...

I got this one from Amazon for $26USD plus tax: INIU Portable Charger, 22.5W 20000mAh USB C in & Out Power Bank Fast Charging, PD 3.0+QC 4.0 LED A little bulky overall but a really good unit at a modest cost from Amazon. It has a lot of functionality that isn't really needed so, a simpler one...

Your best option is probably going to be a good quality Velcro with the fuzzy side glued to the back of your solar panels and the "sticker" side on your backpack either on Molle or possibly sewn onto your backpack. In fairness though, the size of those panels probably won't provide much power...

Common sense on the other side of the Atlantic isn't very common either.

Congratulations! I hope they serve you well.

The 6ft-lb rule on airguns in the UK and a lot of Europe always seemed ridiculous to me, especially since a lot of the 25~35ft-lb air rifles were made there! There is a lot of need for things like that in more rural parts of the UK which seems to be possible with some licensing but, that is...

Happens due to chance? Sorry but, while I agree hardened career criminals aren't that way at birth but, there is a marked difference between a teenager shoplifting and doing similar petty stuff that is easy to intercept to work with so they don't move onto harder crime. Some people can't be...

Wow! That is really surprising. Laws for public safety that haven't really impacted those meaning to do harm while impacting average people in everyday life.

When guns were banned, didn't knife murders increase? Then various knife laws were enacted to deal with that too? I dare say, someone who is willing to murder someone else isn't going to be deterred by a law against having a knife. Sure, you may catch a few people before they murder someone...

The Uni Power Tank Ballpoint Pen has proven to be a winner for me for pocket carry.

I disagree generally with most bans. What you are alluding to is what happened in the USA when President Bill Clinton signed the Assault Gun Ban into law. After much rejoicing about no more bayonet lugs and flash suppressors, guess what? 5 seconds with a Hacksaw and Wrench, and a new butt...

I used the Purina (dog food company) Breed Selector in the beginning to find the right dog breed for me at the time. Later, I believe it moved to Animal Planet TV. What I learned was a Belgian Mellanois was a bad choice for me at the time. The German Shepherd had the personality and physical...

I'm not trying to insult anyone here in this forum. If you are from one of the abhorrent groups, that is a different topic and further discussion doesn't belong here. Thankfully most of the bad things I alluded to are bad things of the past! If you are a sympathizer for one of those abhorrent...

That looks like a Pico refill to me. Take it to a good stationary store and compare it to other similar refills from the popular brands. That's the best way for me to find a random pen refill.
