bluemonday Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Clicky Not before time, some areas in big cities are no go areas because of this lot. Always accosting old people and helping them across the road. Setting up campfires and singing. Controls of this sort are well overdue. Now at least gun carrying hoodies and crack dealers can go about their business in peace without fear of being woggled or dobbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La_Dolce_Vita Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 It is a pretty stupid rule to bring in - its not like they will get together for Scout meetings to stab people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jehovah Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I need clarification here, on the island is it illegal to have a lock knife, like the one I bought openly at B&Q the other day, 4" knife one end with a Stanley knife at the other, both lockable.? I also have a 2" lock knife and a 2" flick knife. They're in the shed somewhere amongst my other junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 u find the flick knife is illegal, unless there is a limit on the blade size. but im sure all flick knifes are banned, a lock knife im not so sure about, i think it would depend on the situation i allways carry a knife in my pocket in the day when im working, cant see a problem with that, but i think if u went out to a pub with one in your pocket and for some reason the cops found it, i think u would have a lot of explaining to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weasel Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I'm not sure if the English law applies here, but you can legally carry in public a folding knife with a cutting edge of no longer than three inches, and it must be non-locking. You would need to be able to justify why you were carrying a locking knife. If you were a builder or carpet fitter on the way to a job, then the knife you bought in B&Q is not illegal. If you were just strolling down Strand Street it would be. As I said, this is how it works in England, and it may not be quite the same here.

Terse Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 So what happens now if a horse gets a stone in it's shoe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemonday Posted September 9, 2009 Author Share Posted September 9, 2009 The horse should be taken to the nearest police station where an officer not below the rank of Inspector will authorise the issuing of a pen knife to a police constable who is a fully trained and qualified pen knife handling officer. The 'PN' officer will then remove the stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluemonday Posted September 9, 2009 Author Share Posted September 9, 2009 No. The PN officer cannot be identified as this is sensitive information that might be useful to a terrorist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBloodyNine Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I don't see why the horse doesn't just take its shoe off and give it a shake like the rest of us. Bloody stuck up beasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
