Thread: Combat Knives?

Yea I know what you mean. I'm pretty much from BFE and it's crazy just the attitudes between people in the city and out in small towns. Oh and Btw I love the knife. I wrapped the grip in 550 cord and put on the TDI belt clip. It seems to be good size, nice and sturdy, it's sharp but I'd like a bit sharper, the handle is a little small but its a good size for a necker or a CCW/boot knife. Overall I'd buy another if i loose this one 10 times out of 10. I'll post pictures of the knife and how I carry it probably later tonight.

Gentlemen the answer is clear.

Just send me everything that might be illegal and I'll hold onto it for safe keeping

Basil's generous offer has inspired me to help you all find a good place to keep your less than legal items. My first idea is my house until there comes a time in which you can reclaim your banned treasures. I mean I wouldnt was you to be overwhelmed Basil.

Lol nice to see a forum filled with such generous people!

But seriously that really sucks and I'd be doing all I could to keep them from my collection of razors.

I always thought you liked freedom the same way we do,and Dammit it something we have a divine right to!-it comes from our creators,who ever you believe them to be,not the politicians. Its the perfect time to turn up the heat on them,and point out that something bad is on the horizon,the middle east is talking about sharia law ,and Caliphates,which means you live by Islamic law. That doesn't sound like freedom to me,and have you ever seen their beards?,I don't think they would have a use for straight razors,except if you break one of there laws. I think as long as we keep the light on these appeasing rats they WILL run for cover,and I don't know if you can ,but a class action lawsuit for all the arms they took from you and destroyed,you should be compensated-they didn't pay you for them did they?

P.S. we have a saying here-when seconds count, the police are only minutes away !-reassuring huh?

Many years ago they did try a "gun buy back" scheme, where the government gave you some money for any guns you had, and amnesty if they were not legal. Basically it did take an awful lot of guns out of peoples homes... but only the honest peoples homes. The criminal types never gave back their guns, of course. So now, with the exception of a few dedicated shooters who are prepared to pay the astronomical licence fees, and go through all the red tape involved in owning weapons here, the only people who are armed are the criminals.

On a plus side, the chances of you getting shot in a crime here is very slim. Illegal handguns are so expensive here that only serious gangsters have them. And serious gangsters are not likely to be holding you up in the street for your wallet, or breaking into your house. Most of the shooting deaths here are gangsters shooting other gangsters over rivalries.

Junkies here just hold you up with a syringe. Which the government gives to them free.

I will say that Legion is right on most points...Money was given to those that handed over their previously legal firearms (even a few of the illegal ones). It truly was a balls up though, in that many firearms dissappeared before they went to the crusher, other firearms somehow managed to be 'bought back' more than once and others ended up in the hands of those crims that Legion spoke about. The amounts given to those handing them in depended on how much you knew about rorting the system...
Blackmarket weapons trade is there if you can afford it, and many of those come in through Pakistan where there is a huge trade in back street copies of any firearm you could want, being made and sold.
What Legion may not be aware of, is the many armed robberies that have occurred in my region over recent months, many of which have been done with handguns...Whether real or replica is not known. But even a finger in a pocket will do the trick if you're game enough I suppose. We have also recently lost a police officer who was shot in the face with a shotgun. This wasn't one of those 'nasty' illegal styles of shotgun either. Just an ordinary everyday saw off. Criminals will always be able to access a weapon...Or buy a metal lathe and make their own.
And junkies will hold you up with a syringe...The police only minutes away...Sometimes 60 minutes or more.

LMAO! Do you know what the penalty is if you are caught with a cut down firearm? When I was a kid we use to shoot carp with them. No longer...

We also use to make our own .22 pipe guns. Fortunately kids are much lazier nowadays, and less good with their hands.

Mick,
I hate to tell you give me 15 minutes in a shop and Ill have a gun,and the last guy who disarmed his people was Hitler

I think we should get back to posting about combat knives...I've whined enough about the state of affairs in this country...Don't worry I've written to quite a few people in power over the last few days and put it out there to all my mates to do just the same and to spread the word to their mates and so on.
So, I do apologise for taking this topic and sidetracking it. Now I want to drool over other peoples bladeware and re-discover some joy in life
