Mister_F_D Article 3, §1 of the 2006 Weapons Act[7] lists the switchblade or automatic knife (couteaux à cran d’arrêt et à lame jaillissante), as well as butterfly knives, throwing knives, throwing stars, and knives or blades that have the appearance of other objects (i.e. sword canes, belt buckle knives, etc.) as prohibited weapons.[8] In addition to specifically prohibited knives, the police and local jurisdictions have broad authority to prohibit the carrying or possession of a wide variety of knives, to include carriage inside a vehicle, if the owner cannot establish sufficient legal reason (motif légitime) for doing so, particularly in urban areas or at public events.[9] This discretion extends to even folding knives without a locking blade.[7][9] (Belgium knife legislation)
johnny304That’s total bull, I feel bad for the people living in an area where knives are so controlled. Those legislators would have a heart attack in America. Glad to see someone helping out others in the community with information, though.
