illi @lemm.ee I don't want to undercut the tragedy of lost life here, but I pity people doing HEMA fencing or similar hobbies in UK.
As I understand it the government was already stupid about some anti-sword/knife laws and this won't help...

Swords are already pretty regulated in the UK last I learnt about this topic. Matt Easton from Schola Gladiatoria has a video on it somewhere
