TL;DR

 

 

 

But I must say a respectable experiment this is.

If I were a knife seller, and David walked in, with his sweater vest, pipe, beard and glasses and asked to purchase 3 knives I would sell them to him.. probably without asking for ID.

But if say a pair of society's bi-product sporting fake Burberry caps and hand bags, trainers and a matching track pants and jacket, and asked to purchase 3 knives, I would be reluctant to hand them over.. at least without ID. If they had ID, I would be left with no choice but to let them purchase them.

 

It's all in the image I guess.. but that way of thinking would probably get you introuble.

So David, what are your plans for these knives? ;)

 

They are for the kitchen

 

And For your information, I don't have a sweater vest, nor a pipe, only a beard on days I can't be fucked to shave, but I do have glasses.

I think you should wear gloves and pay for knives with cash. And talk paranoid. And drive a stolen vehicle when buying knives. Then see if oyu get questioned.

people who use knives definitely steal them. the shop I used to work in had a Hobbycraft next door. we'd find the packaging from the knives in the hidey hole with the DVD tags after the thieves had been in.

The tesco in Tidworth made a mistake when they were building it with not installing security alarms by the doors of the changing rooms. So you had kids and other people selecting some items of clothes, plus some cds/dvds/games and heading into the changing room to remove the security cases/tabs from the cds/dvds/games, coming out putting the clothes back and walking out of the store.

 

Although that wasn't as bad as a raid in the WH Smiths in Winchester, after a re-fit they accidentally left a blind-spot next to the fire door, so some members of a gang managed to get some highish value goods towards the fire door, before making a runner into a car outside which was running and ready to go. :lol:

ssounds a bit scottish

yeah I thought you all sounded scottish.

 

:P

I decided because I was bored to test out the latest governement crack-down on knife crime (also because I broke the kitchen knife yesterday), to see how easy it was to actually buy knifes which in the wrong hands could do some damage.

 

Armed with my ID, I managed to purchase 4 knives of reasonable length (a length where it could kill) without being asked for ID, and a further 3 knives with being asked for ID.

 

Overall cost for all 7 knives was £12.35, and I was doing anything illegal because all 7 knives are currently sitting in my kitchen, but I was shocked.

you should do the same purchases tomorrow, this time with a hoodie on ;)

He can't, as he would then be in breach of his ASBO.:P

isn't being in breach more exciting than the ASBO itself, especially if you are in possession of seven knives at the same time :o

 

Go Dave!

Wouldn't look good considering he works for the defence......

Does as he pleases

Davy try it!
