Update:
Firearms come to mind.
It's all about control, gotta keep the sheep so they can be sheared naked for profit in the political pocket.Quick! Ban fire extinguishers and pillows! Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime! That way we can stop paying for police... oh look now there's a crime wave but it's OK chums, we politicians can afford private security and anyway the handful of police left will defend us against the unhappy masses of hoi polloi.
Instead of banning legitimate items with daily use, they could try supporting youth projects to prevent people from falling prey to gangs, or dealing with people that misuse everyday items. Almost all stabbings involve cheap kitchen knives which are readily available and no loss to dispose of. Nobody attacks people with razor blades or fancy collectible knives etc. Although in Slough they do like a machete. And there are no police to intervene so people walk about unchallenged with 2 foot jungle knives ffs.
I have a laguiole pocket knife arriving tomorrow and came via ups with no issues, I imagine the razor blade company etc will just switch carriers as suggested previously by others.
DHL, DPD and Evri all prohibit knives:
So, it's rather looking like Royal Mail is pretty much the only willing courier now.
Yep! When it comes down to it ... nobody bothers.Nearly all my knives come by DPD. 7 this month so far and 2 more on the way. No issue.
Don't even asked for a signature, despite being aware that they are knives and age restricted and saying on the app that proof of age will be required for the delivery.
UPS definitely requires a signature, they have sent about 4 emails telling me to make sure someone age appropriate is in to sign for it or no delivery.Yep! When it comes down to it ... nobody bothers.
