End of sword collecting in the UK

This subjects has been discussed before, and will no doubt come up for discussion again when other countries 'turn the screw'. Here is a link to an earlier discussion http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...Armour+Society
Collectors have to be registered by the police as collectors, and if they buy a sword or a knife fromt an antic dealer or an auction house they have to show their collectors certificate, or they will not get the item.
The rules in Denmark are, at the moment so, that in some towns you are not allowed to wear a normal pocketknife during the night, and the police can search you without any warning - so be warned, if you want to see the nightlife in some of the bigger Danish towns.
