The media play the major role in all the knife-crime stuff, not some tacky coat from TKMaxx

They should have known better though.

Personally, I think it was a mistake that was rectified as soon as they realised it was on the shelves... the coat was made in Switzerland... and is probably useful to Swiss people. I cant see TKMaxx purposely selling a coat with a knife in.. they wouldnt put themselves in that situation.

Its a shame.. its todays society that has made this a problem. The coat would of initially been made for useful purposes as opposed to killing people purposes!

True.

I remember when every lad wanted a full on Swiss Army knife and there was nothing sinister about it. How times have changed!

I was thinking the same thing. I live in Switzerland and everybody has one of those knives. The jackets are probably quite normal here. You can get those knives everywhere you go, even in newspaper shops. You can also buy guns here quite freely. It's not abnormal to see people with rifles as there are shooting ranges everywhere and they use them for hunting.

They just don't use them on each other.

I wish I could understand what the difference is between here and Britain. What went wrong?

at least they got them off the shelves tho, wonder how many they sold before they were notified?

Awesome,free knife...

In all seriousness though, I was going to get my OH an engraved knife...he does a lot of woodwork,carpentry etc, sort of thing he'd find useful....and then I thought, oh no cos if he's caught with it on him
