If the British were really serious about stopping knife attacks, surely they should use American liberal logic and just pass a few more new laws forbidding it!

Dull knives? We all know what that means, everyone will be cutting themselves because knives slip and go sideways when they are dull.

UK is stupid. My guess is they will devise a Sharpness Index for knives.

Trained professionals will come around to homes and test your knives for sharpness. If they are too sharp they will be dulled.

This sounds too stupid to even be fiction.

What abject morons.

Shades of Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders and her call for “safer guns and safer bullets.”

Well the easiest way to cut oneself is to use a dull knife

Ask the people up at Sheffield.

To call this insane would be giving them too much credit.

They already have duller knives. They are called “spoons”.

Time to go old school...I'm sure the English remember these from somewhat recent history.

Will wet stones and grindstones have to become less effective? What about forges and anvils? Register those?

Can’t call for duller cops; they’re already there.

From what I’ve been reading about British police lately, it is obvious they aren’t the sharpest knives in the drawer.

Next they’ll ban the assault sharpening stones. Those things are just pure madness anyway!

Well, they need to ban bench grinders. I mean, that’s a no brainer. Or maybe a background check to purchase one. :D

I’m surprised that they have not outlawed and confiscated all knives and issued government approved “sporks”.

While they’re at it, they’d better ban those nasty Cricket bats, too.

Well, it’s definitely slowed it down a bit

No, it did not slow it down.

Murder rates were lower before the gun laws were enacted.
