Yet, when they found a 16 year old with a knife on the way to football, he got a "Youth Referral Order, with £40 costs and a £22 victim surcharge." That's what needs to change.I believe it's illegal to buy these types of knifes already:
Under the measures, first announced by the Prime Minister last year and laid before Parliament today, it will be illegal to possess, sell, manufacture or transport these zombie-style knives and machetes.
It is illegal to carry any knife in public without good purpose, carrying a sentence of 4 years in prison, and, in 2016, the government banned zombie knives, whilst cyclone knives were banned in 2019.
