Can anyone tell me if the new restrictions on receiving "blades" through the post are in yet?
I'm thinking of buying a bayonet via mail order from abroad, but don't want to risk it being confiscated and destroyed by Royal Mail, so I'm holding off at the moment.
Whoops. Maybe in the wrong section, so I'll try in "Off Topic" as well.

I don't think the restrictions are in yet but I shared exactly the same dilemma when I wanted to add an American bayonet to my collection. I held off and luckily found a very nice example at the War & Peace show in Kent this week.

I know. I was also trying to be sarcastic! Probably not my strongest trait.

For a long time I've thought that there should be a special font for sarcasm.
Not that I'd ever need to use it.

I just bought a new swiss army knife from E8ay france. I dont see how anyone could stop that when it comes into effect. Are they really going to find the resources to police it?

Came into force in mid May.
Also redefines flick knives, so time to check your flippers as some of them can be prohibited weapons now.
Nice vague definition to annoy you.

If they have green handles they may be Zombie screwdrivers.
Then you are in trouble!

So what are the options now for getting a blade through the post? Do we have to have them delivered to a shop for "face to face"?
Is it similar to the airgun situation, where it's still ok to send them between private individuals, but not by way of business?

As usual, it's a piece of incredibly complicated legislation which will be difficult to comprehend by the ordinary person.
Again, as usual, it will do absolutely nothing to solve the problem of knife crime.
