More news from the multicult war zone of gun-free Britain, this time about machetes. Ah, machetes, how I love thee! A truly useful tool for clearing away hardy weeds such as blackberry, but here in Australia it is hard to find them in your hardware shop, and if they are under lock and key, these machetes are the really short puny sort. Nevertheless one can still purchase decent ones on EBay, some for as little as $4, which are rough, but still functional. Cold Steel, the US knife company, makes a whole catalogue of machetes replicating many swords, such as its Chinese war sword machete.
In camping one could get by not even taking an axe. But, I digress, lost in the wonder of the machete, but there is relevance, since the machete is a cheap sword which is disposable, a “don’t-care -weapon.” That is why it is used in bladed attacks rather than heavier swords, which are more expensive, and not as fast. Kept sharp, the machete is dangerous and easily cuts flesh, as the meat cutting demonstrations by Cold Steel on YouTube well show (kiddies, and adult children, seek parental approval first):

So, these things can be deadly, and they are easily made from spring steel, widely available. Even heat treatment is not needed if the steel is thick, so banning them is going to be difficult. You will need to control all steel. Good luck with that.

“Machete attacks are taking place every 90 minutes on our streets, figures reveal. Criminals are increasingly picking the jungle blades as their weapons of choice to instill terror in victims and rival gang members. Police forces are dealing with rising numbers of machete-wielding thugs carrying out murders, rapes, robberies and burglaries. In February, 20-year-old Sadiq Aadam was hacked to death in Belsize Park, north London, by a gang carrying the blades. A teenager has since appeared in court charged with murdering two young men.”
Of course machetes are the weapons of choice of the dreaded Anglo Saxons, who periodically raid Britain in longboats, coming from the south and the east. See what a problem immigration is! King Alfred, don’t worry about watching the cakes cook (and burn); it is time to deal with a greater problem!
