I'm not sure the ones that need to be handed in will be sadly.
This is needed though to try to get knives out of possession and off the streets.
However, for me, much stiffer and certainly longer custodial sentences for knife crime OR even just owning or carrying one is what I think needs to be brought in.

I agree about longer sentences and stricter on knife crime though. That would show that it's being taken seriously.
