Ban the online sale of all knives
To pass legislation that prevents the advertising and sale of all knives
Knife crime is a serious problem. Banning only certain types of knives is highly problematic and still leaves scope for purchase of knives that can be used to cause harm. If people want a knife, then they should go to a retailer who can verify age and intent of the purchase
