Fake M9 Ontario?

I wouldn't think it'd be lawful to own a bayonet in England with the whole knife amnesty thing?

There is no law against owning as long as you dont walk the streets with it, you could just as easily kill with a kitchen knife!
Stupid idots try to spoil things for normal collectors ,were will it all end?

I don't get it.

England is so much more restrictive.

In Australia, you can't walk the streets with knives either, however, if you have a knife with a good use or purpose, such as a utility knife, pocket/folding knife or stanley boxcutter, then you're pretty much ok provided you use it for work. It's the nutjob bogans who carry 11" rambo knives around in their car gloveboxes that get arrested. Things seem a little more relaxed down here since there's not as many stabbings.

I hear a guy in the UK had his knife and (deactivated) gun collection seized by police "just in case" not long ago because his neighbours were worried that someone might "use them against him", the guy lost about GPB 4500 worth of collected stuff, including some very rare bayonets, and some lovely WWII guns he used to own before the Dunblane massacre and had to have made inoperable. Winston Churchill would be rolling in his grave!
