Doesn’t achieve nothing, reduces knife crime.
Murder is ‘banned’, still happens.

Knife laws don’t prevent anything if premeditated. If carrying a knife in some random environment like a pub on a Friday night with alcohol involved then the problem isn’t premeditation it’s spontaneous heat of the moment occurrences that are preventable. It’s hard to pin down with words but “having reasonable cause to be carrying a knife” is the thing.
Obviously strolling to the local slug and lettuce with a 7” Bowie has lots of potential to end badly and you might struggle to come up with reasonable cause for having it on your person[emoji848][emoji2373]
