As of 6 April 2008 a new category has been added to the Criminal Justice Offensive Weapons law of 1998. Our understanding here at Battle Orders is that it affects curved swords over 50cms in length from the handle to the tip of the blade. The defences allowed include use of the blade for practising sport where blades are traditionally used. We believe this means Samurai Swords can be sold to Martial Artist over 18 with a valid license. Other curved swords such as Sabres will be permitted for use by Re-enactors. The full New Law can be sent to you with our compliments on request or you can call the Home Office for their advise. As it is the police who will enforce this law it may also be advisable to contact your local police for further information. Please understand here at Battle Orders we can only read and apply this law to the extent of our understanding and legal advice taken. If in doubt please speak to us direct at Battle Orders on 01323 485182 NO RESTRICTION ON OVERSEAS SALES.
