I used to enjoy getting some of my bayonet collection from eBay.UK but no more. As of March 10th eBay.UK prohibits the sale of knives unless they are used for eating! Even kitchen knives are banned. Just when you thought the UK couldn't be more insane! I'm wondering how long before eBay USA follows this policy.

eBay prohibits members from listing knives on eBay.co.uk and eBay.ie with one exception:
Cutlery: this includes sets of kitchen cutlery (knives, forks, spoons) that contain knives used for eating, but does not include sharp kitchen knives such as those found in knife blocks, such as paring knives.
Members should be aware when listing knives on eBay that it is an offence to market a knife in a way which indicates or suggests that it is suitable for combat, or is likely to encourage violent behaviour involving the use of the knife as a weapon. It is also an offence to sell knives to a person who is under the age of 18.
