UK Zombie Knives & Machete Amnesty & Compensation Launches Before Ban
An amnesty and compensation scheme for people in England and Wales who possess zombie-style knives and machetes is starting ahead of the weapons being banned next month. New legislation will close a loophole and make it an imprisonable offence to own, make, transport or sell a wide range of what are called ‘statement’ knives favoured by criminal gangs.
People who currently legally possess such knives can hand them in to police stations without fear of prosecution and, in some cases, claim compensation. The new law, which comes into force on 24 September, will cover the manufacture, supply, sale, possession and importation of these weapons.
There are exemptions for people who have good reason to own the items, for example, a specialist machete used in forestry or an antique Samurai sword. But, people who do own long-bladed weapons are advised to check with their local police on whether they fall foul of the law. The Conservative government tried a ban in 2016, but a loophole meant some items bypassed the rule.
Earlier this month, Policing Minister Dame Diana Johnson said the ban was the first step in the government's plan to halve knife crime in a decade. It would be followed by efforts to outlaw ninja swords, Dame Diana added.

So looking at the implements psycho's are using, rather than figuring out why there are so many psycho's attacking people now? Seems about right.
