Selling Knives

We request knife retailers take care when selling knives and follow these simple guidelines:

1. Knives should only be sold to those over 18.

2. Assess the age of the buyer

3. Challenge for proof of age

4. Check ID

5. You can refuse to sell a knife if you think it will be misused

Please also remember to store and display knives safely.
