The Victorian government will ban the sale of machetes from Wednesday after a gang brawl at a shopping centre.
Two males were arrested and another was taken to hospital in a serious but stable condition after the incident at Northlands shopping centre.
I legitimately don’t know the specific use case of a machete, what is it?
Rural NSW bushland - heaps of people around here have machetes and cane knives. Useful for cutting through vines, small saplings, lantana, etc. My cane knife is probably my 3rd most used tool when doing outdoor work on my property.
Yeah fair enough. You will still be able to use and keep the one you’ve got though. It’s a sales ban not an ownership ban
And what happens when it breaks and you need a new one?
I suppose it’s time to move on then. It is just a sharp stick. I’m sure you can use something else
You have no idea what you are talking about.
Maybe not. But guess what , t’s happening so it’s probably gonna have to go down like I just said
