But, the mother of 16-year-old Mikey Ryall who was fatally stabbed with a zombie knife near Bristol last June worries the new law will "not be enough" to combat knife crime.

BBC is saying that the knife fatally stabbed her son?

All by itself???

https://www.akti.org/federal-switchblade-act/

The only United States law regarding auto-open (automatic) knives is referred to as the Federal Switchblade Act. The act regulates the manufacture and introduction of switchblades into interstate (crossing state lines) commerce. It has NO application to individual consumers, or most merchants who sell knives. It has NO application to laws WITHIN a state.

The legislation (Public Law 85-623) was passed on August 12, 1958, and incorporated into law in two sections. The first section prohibits the importation and interstate commerce of switchblades or gravity knives, and the second section prohibits automatics from being mailed through the U.S. Postal Service (with some exceptions – See U.S. Title 18 below).

knife crime?

I bet those knives are liberal, running around and stabbing people.

If one creates a weapon out of a spoon or fork or pliers or screwdriver will there be “spoon crime” etc?

jerks.

If you can’t graze it from the ground on your knees, it should not be eaten. No farting though.

For soft targets, you don’t even need decent steel.

They’ve got a bunch of murder/rapist Hari Krishnas to harass them already.

A 1.5 X 24 x .250 of cold rolled will make a very good hacking instrument.

Must be the UK? I was right! Though recent knifings in UK and Europe have been done with common kitchen knives. How can these be banned? Stabbings mostly done by Muslims.

You are a UK/European white native who gets caught in a bad situation with a Muslim or African asylum scammer. You must always be fearful that they are carrying a knife to severely do you in. This is common knowledge to any native male with a brain.

I see these accounts frequently in the UK Daily Mail and Twitter postings by Euro Patriots. Of Muslim groups beating up on an outnumbered native or two.
