Summary of request
The requestor would like to be provided with any new reports or correspondence which have looked at modifying the point of kitchen knives which are on the shelves of our high street stores and in the kitchens of homes.
Making pointed kitchen knives illegal for sale would also make policing the carrying of knives on the street easier, because if found it would be clear that there would be no other reason for carrying such a knife.
Provide any update or reports that have been done by the Mayors Office in removing the point from large kitchen knives.
