      if you use weapon on people you will go to jail.What is the average sentence for Section 18?
      If convicted of a Section 18 GBH, the maximum sentence you could receive is a life sentence of imprisonment. Most cases will not be sentenced to life imprisonment, the most severe cases have a starting point of 12-years imprisonment. At the lower end of severity, a starting point of 3-years imprisonment will be taken

      Rule 2- if you have to use something for self defense you better use something that is effective in any situations, like a Glock 19 and then explain to the police that you are only carrying it in your pocket as a weight so the wind won't blow you away, it helps you to stay grounded 😂You'll probably go to prison (based on the current laws) but at least you'll be alive.

    In Australia I had a fixed blade 2 inches on a dive belt, in a padlocked bag full of diving gear, in a locked pelican case, in a locked boot of my car. We were stopped by police because allegedly my car was a common type of car used for ram raids, we were exited at gun point, and I suspect to save face for so much drama over nothing they ransacked the car and found that as an excuse and said they were either confiscating it or charging me criminally for it. I asked them to charge me criminally for it so I can see them in court and get my knife back (it was given to me when I got my SCUBA license by my long deceased father when I was 16) - he shook his head, put it in his pocket, and they left us to clean up the mess. Contacted his department asking for an event number. They didn't log the stop, didn't log the knife, didn't log anything. Chased it up every few days for weeks, no event created. So I got mugged by cops at gunpoint. Go figure.

    Hi Mike. The Law in the UK is backwards , we are considered guilty even before we do anything , EVERYONE should be allowed to carry whatever they want , IF you use it in a criminal way then you should receive HARSH punishment. Convict the guilty NOT the innocent. Use punishment as a deterrent. Today in Britain we have thugs carrying and using weapons to commit crime ( the victim is powerless to defend themselves ) and the offender is more often or not given a slap on the wrist and released to re-offend. The REAL reason the government wants us defenseless is to stop us standing up to government TYRANNY. Until people realise that we are finished as a free nation.

    The short (and only) answer is 'NO' - you cannot carry anything 'as a weapon'. Proof of intent lies with the police however - especially if it is on your person. A knife in your pocket could be construed as intent - a knife in a fishing box on you way to go fishing could be seen as reasonable. It's a cruel world.

Never tell a cop anything as they are just fishing for something to nick you on. Knowing the law is your most valuable weapon in my opinion. Good vid.

    The best tool shown is the umbrella. It keeps the rain off and is good as standoff defensive tool to keep people at a distance. Also good for dogs. William Fairbairn shows more uses.
    Small pokey things are not very good, you have to be close.

    The short answer is no, if you carry anything....even an everyday item and you say to the "police" that you carry that as a weapon for self defense they are going to arrest you, the government position on the matter is that you should rather die by the hands of criminals then have the ability to effectively defend yourself. In their opinion you as a law abiding citizen being stabbed to death is ok but hurting or killing an aggressive violent criminal is not, the government is really concerned about the safety and wellbeing of CRIMINALS ( those who are alike, protect eachother) So following the same principle " get a Glock or anything you can use safely and is effective enough but don't carry it as a weapon but say that you are carrying it as extra weight in your pocket so the wind won't blow you away)...... (This was a joke) I seriously believe in justice, I advocate for law and order, I would never suggest anyone to break the law yet the truth is that if the country is taken over by criminals and they are the ones making the law, your duty as a righteous man is not to follow the nonsense but stand against. Stand for logic, for reason, for what is right, for human rights. One of the most basic human right is the right to defend yourself. Just my opinion.

    I always carry a weapon for self defence. I would only ever use it or show it in a self defence situation. Yes I'm breaking the law but do you think an attacker would care about the law? I'm not likely to get stopped and searched so it's worth the risk. If I did get nicked I would lie and get out of it. Don't be a victim. The police are carrying weapons so why can't you?

    A newspaper rolled up and folded in half to form a hard edge on the fold is surprisingly effective, and its what I used to carry when in a 'new' area, I remember being told of a lady who used to carry a hammer in a carrier bag many years ago and got away with it because she always made sure 'she was on her way to drop it off to her friends to knock a nail in to hang a picture up' so when the cops checked with the friend her story fitted.

    I used to teach self defence. I'd feel obliged to warn people, especially women, that ANYTHING can be classed as a weapon by the police. So always be aware of what you have on you, and the various uses for them.
    Hairspray, debit cards etc.
    But ALWAYS use the line "I acted instinctively" when later questioned.
    You may still face court action.

      ​@@andyrobertson7315 This is hypocrisy, my very legitimate question is, if you are attacked by a gang on the street and they are armed with knives and machetes how you are supposed to defend yourself??? Obviously you'll run if that's possible as no normal person will choose the fight... unless they are stupid, but the truth is that this kid of attacks happen in very short time not really giving you the time to think and analyse the situation also there may be situations when running isn't an option, what then? Well the "justice" system will tell you to call the police if you feel threatened.... you can imagine how this happens in a real scenario, so you walk home on a evening and when you take a corner you see three guys wearing facemasks and hoodies and they are coming towards you, you turn around straight away but you realise that there are another two of them who are approaching from behind, you can't run and you see one of them pulling a knife while another one is pulling up a machete from under his jacket so what now? Based on the law you should call the police, now that means that you have to politely and respectfully ask your attackers to just give you a minute to call the police while you are apologising for the wait and the inconvenience ( because you are a well mannered person, you don't want to unnecessarily waste anyone's time, right) so you ask them nicely to wait for you until you call the police. Let's say even if they are polite enough (which I seriously doubt) to give you some time and patiently wait until you finish your call, you still have to wait until the police arrive ( average waiting time 30 to 60 mine.) Basically that means that in the best case scenario you are robbed, or the worst case scenario you are stabbed and cut and you are bleeding out on the pavement and the arriving police will only find your dead body. It will be too late for you to complain to the government about the fact that their laws regarding self defense is wrong... As a human being one of the main and basic human right is the right for self defense and as criminals never ask for permission to arm themselves and are always prepared to carry out their crime, you as a free human being also have the right to arm your self with a weapon that is appropriate and comfortable for you and which you can use effectively and with confidence in a self defense situation regardless of the unreasonable and abusive laws which are denying that right. You are responsible for your own and your family's safety. I put this in a simple to understand principle. If the government says that it's illegal for you to live are you expected to respect the law and let yourself killed? Government has proven over and over that they are a criminal mafia style organisation and have no rightful authority to promote and enforce unreasonable and abusive laws. So it's your responsibility only if you choose to arm yourself..
      The only free and right society is a society where citizens have the right to be legally armed and trained in the safe use of guns. A real and reasonable weapons ban is acceptable and makes sense only in a completely crimeless society. Only an oppressive government is afraid of legally armed citizens.

    The Current Law on Dangerous Weapons is quite ridiculous, it includes a great number of things that have NEVER been used in Any Crime in the UK, I cannon see how a Lock on a knife, a Safty Device, can make it More Dangerous than a knife without one, or even how it Opens makes it a Weapon, instead of a tool.
    The Laws both Current & Pending are a Joke, they have cost a great many people's Livelihood, & they have taken NO weapons off the street, 95%+ knives used in crime are Kitchen knives, this has Not Changed, but what Has Changed is the amount of LAC's that have been arrested for carrying Weapons that were Tools they have been using for work for Decades, Almost Everyfukingthing the Police Farce have had Banned have hit LAC's much harder than criminals, & with what they are asking for Now will be even more Stupid, maybe they should arrest more of the people committing crimes of Violence instead of Banning Everyday Items that Everyday People use Ligitimately Everyday, but then that would take Valuable time out of Harassing Motorists & the Innocent & having them do the job they are Paid to do.

Slash sleeves are brilliant, very quick to take on and off, can fit in a bag or jacket pocket, you can roll them up on your arm, or wear them all day without much issue. Sleeves are good because all of the hollywood knife disarms are fantasy, the military and police literally the world over all basically agree on the same thing, you disarm them by establishing a grapple and you take hits, mitigated hits and it's horrible but it's what you have to do if you have no choice.

    In England we have a natural right to self defense that does not come from government.

Our bill of rights 1688 was signed outside of parliament so that it could not be subverted through statutory interpretation and is in full effect on the legislation.gov website. The government's legislation on bearing arms is something we agreed to to keep the peace, however the government has broken that peace and has put us all in danger through open door immigration. We have a natural right to self defense in natural/common law and the government may not like that, but it is what it is.
