Ugggh, please have him committed, obviously he has a mental disorder.
But sadly it's the same disfunction we have here in America

Let me guess, rocks are too hard?

"But why we do need eight-inch or ten-inch kitchen knives with points?"

That's it. I'm tired of those idiots. Time for a 40 foot wall around Great Britain. Once it's complete, start pumping in the sea water.

My wife is hot pissed now. Amazing. A judge asks how often a home chief uses the point on a knife.

How often does the judge use the point on his head?

Liberalism...it truly is a disease.

Not America. Britain was lost a long time ago.

Look at this dopey looking Monty Python loon....

As a result - said the judge - the most common knife a youth will take out is eight to ten inches, long and pointed, from his mother's cutlery tray.

He asked: "But why we do need eight-inch or ten-inch kitchen knives with points? Butchers and fishmongers do, but how often, if at all, does a domestic chef use the point of an eight-inch or ten-inch knife? Rarely, if at all."

Acknowledging that any blade could cause injury, the judge pointed out "slash wounds are rarely fatal."

That motherbubblegummer has no idea what three quick slashes to particular bodily places that can be inflicted in less three seconds can do to make you FATALLY bleed out within 45-120 seconds....

"Knife crime" sounds kind of like "Gun violence" doesn't it? Interesting use of language in both instances.

The only safe knife to use is a sharp knife.

For what it's worth, today's table knife with the blunt rounded end are traditionally attributed to Cardinal Richelieu around 1637, as he disliked guests picking their teeth with the knife-points. In 1669, King Louis LIV of France actually banned pointed knives in the palace and in public, insisting the blunt tips would reduce violence. Nothing new under the sun, etc.

The only "safe" knife is a sharp knife.
Also a 8 to 10 inch bladed knife is handy for carving a roast , ham , turkey etc...
Not to forget to mention that the "heft" of those longer blades , often helps in chopping and slicing.

Again blaming the item for a person's misuse of said item....makes no sense and solves nothing.

And certain ones are not the sharpest knives in the drawer.

So, what is keeping anybody, including teenagers, from putting a point back on any knife?

What is keeping anybody from making a knife from almost anything?

Shanks are very popular in prison - one of the most restricted environment around.

And to think that this loon is actually a Judge who makes life changing decisions for others. He should be sent off to traffic court and limited to hearing cases of contested parking tickets.

Just ban everything! Then we will be safe haha

Oh yeah.....we in the USA could learn something from them on the subject of GUN CONTROL too.

I imagine the Judge sounds quite intelligent with his British accent.
