No worries, mate. After the exhibition is over, all the weapons will be thrown into one of these bins.
P.S. Isnt that bin about the dumbest idea ever? Im guessing that the total number of knives collected from UK Islamists is exactly zero.
Where are the bins for hammers, ropes, axes, hatchets, steel toed boots, baseball bats, sharp pointy knives, butter knives, plastic straws, sharpened pencils, elbows, evil SUVs, feet and fists?
What a difference 40 years makes.
I went on leave for a month at a time in ‘80, ‘81 and ‘82.
Bought a Eurail pass, an Intl. Youth Hostel Assoc. membership card, signed a civilian back pack and sleeping bag out at the AFRC shop and hit the rails for London, Paris, Amsterdam, etc.
I also had a big double edged Gerber fighting dagger on my belt under my down vest.
I would check it and the shoulder bag I carried my map, tourist guide, water bottle, emerg C-ration TP pack, etc in at the cloak room when I visited museums, palaces, etc.
Never got more than a raised eye brow from the attendants, even at Parliament or the Tower or the Louvre.
In fact the guy at Parliament, a retired British Army NCO expressed appreciation for the edge, heft and balance, lol.
A bobbie at Hyde Park simply advised me to keep it under my vest when I went to see Speaker’s Corner and listen to the ravers and ranters for a bit.
I usually sat on a wall or bench with a bottle of beer or wine and used it to eat my lunches, cutting up my fruit, bread, cheese, sausage with it.
