British knife regulations

[cigars]

The Brits are off the deep end. I hate to say it but if they're not around in the next few decades it's entirely their own fault. "Blimey, we'd better ban guns and import entire third world populations, then make it a crime to make offensive comments. While we're at it, let's just leave them disapproving facial expressions to defend themselves with". Hip, hip, cheerio.

Given how the British commonwealth likes its tea (and BELIEVE ME they like their tea), they're gonna hit a total brick wall when it devolves to this......

Here's the answer to overly-stabby knives:

Now... if they could just come up with a way to make hydrochloric acid less face-melty...

I have a friend in England. The man occasionally has automatic knives smuggled in. (He's a fellow collector). The man enjoys the hobby and despises what has happened to his beloved British Empire.

I remember those Bic commercials. The guy could use the pen to put a couple of holes in the top of a can of condensed milk and then write something. I used to try it on various cans of stuff. It worked.

I remember the old "Bic" advertisements as well. This is why I buy Parker "Jotters" with stainless steel bodies. They are refillable, and at $12.00 - $13.00 they last for years. These came from the introduction of Parker's "T-ball Jotters" (titanium-ballpoint pens) from 1955. These were the first, and arguably the best ballpoint pens ever made.
