They jailed an autistic man not long ago for it lmao. it was 6 inches long.The UK banned "Ninja Swords"
I don't know what's funnier, the fact that we're getting a Meji Era Sword ban in 2025 or the fact that the UK didn't know what to call the weapons so they just start calling them "Ninja Swords" which almost sounds racist. Especially since they reference Tantos in the ban, but failed to define everything else.
Also sucks to be British, you can get 6 months in jail for owning a Ninja sword privately.

Via the police report:
Bray approached officers with the item in his hand visible, at which point he was arrested as he was carrying a bladed article.
Bray claimed that the sword was a “fidget” – something to keep his hands busy. He had bought it online as a fidget toy.
Officers tried to explain to Bray that, despite its intended purpose, it was in fact a sharply pointed item which could be used as a weapon and might put others in fear of it being used against them.
He was also carrying it openly in Nuneaton town centre.
Sgt Spellman of the Patrol Investigations Unit said “We take a zero tolerance to bladed articles in public, and Bray has fallen afoul of this.
“It is possible to find fidget toys that aren’t six-inch blades. It is possible not to walk down the street holding them out in front of you.
“With a bit more self-awareness, Bray could have avoided contact with us completely.”
