@TescoBag,
Thank you very much for sharing that last update. I am relieved for you that the police were sensible and that that is an end to the matter. Definitely un-nerving.
It is interesting and potentially useful to have an example of what has been classified as a banned weapon. I think some thought that only black blades emblazoned with day-glo splatter paint and marketed as "zombie knives" would be targeted.

*Tongue firmly in cheek!*
We have several kinds of zombie in this country, and some of them can be problematic. The most widespread can be seen lurching around most town centres, they often cannot hear well and only a little of their brain is left to move them and monitor their surroundings, with which they frequently collide. Generally benign, they can be cured, although it can be traumatic, by forcible separation from their mobile phone.
A different and far more dangerous type is beyond all cure, and may in fact be un-killable, although its hard to know for sure since they all look so alike it is hard to keep track. These grey, soulless ever hungry creatures multiply easily and can be found in shuffling congregations, mostly around Whitehall.
During this so-called "pandemic" I have come to the theory that the latter creatures were involved in the latest weapon legislation, attempting to pre-empt the threat before the revolting peasants could arm themselves and rise against them!
