Knives?
Anyone can make a knife.
When I was 7 I went into my grandpa’s tool shed, took a steel gutter spike and used grandpa’s anvil, hammer and blow torch to pound out a flat blade. I used sandpaper to sharpen it and then used it to whittle a wooden handle that I then glued on. It was 9 inches long and looked like one my mom’s paring knives. Of course mom took it away 2 days later when she saw me with it, but the following year I received my first cub scout pocket knife.

They're not banning ALL single kitchen knives.

Just assault knives, bump-stock knives, high-capacity-magazine knives, hollow-point & armor-piercing knives, knives with silencers, knives bought at unregulated Knife Shows, and the like.

And let me guess, the movie Edward Scissorhands is banned as well?

Because it wouldn't be true?

In London the dominant demographic of youth knife crime, both victims and perpetrators, is young black Afro-Caribbean rather than Muslim, with many (but by no means all) cases related to drug turf wars. Outside London the demographic is a lot more mixed, with quite a few middle class white-on-white also.

There are plenty of problems in the UK which are not particularly Muslim-related, and this is one of them.
