A likely samurai sword ban in England and Wales has been welcomed by those who have campaigned against their sale, according to news.bbc.co.uk.
But collectors and martial arts enthusiasts are concerned legitimate owners may fall foul of the law.
A UK based Internet dealer argues swords are often blamed for deaths caused by long knives: "I'm disgusted. A ban won't make any difference. More people are killed by guns and screwdrivers."
"Tens of thousands of collectors and martial arts enthusiasts will be affected, and there will be confusion about what actually constitutes a sword", the dealer claims.
