It’s not mentioned in this article, but the man in question has a long history of burglary and did four years for a string of thefts. It’s likely a big part of why HIM carrying a 6’’ blade is concerning.
It’s an actual sharpened metal replica type of collectable, also in England people using ‘‘but it’s just a novelty knife’’ as a defense has a long history at this point. It really wouldn’t be safe to use as a fidget item, and it’s not at all sold, or made as a fidget toy.

Well if it were a 6’ blade that could actually be a problem. This 6" blade is not likely to be one imo.
There I fixed it, now you look out of context!
Oh no D: you really got me!!

The added context at least makes the sentence less insane.
Honestly, it being a fidget toy is probably a good reason, if it was anybody else carrying it.

Yea but “criminal sentenced for carrying sword” doesn’t have quite the reactionary clickbait ring to it.
