New Zealand Supermarkets Take Knives Off Shelves After "Extremist" Stabbing
...
Police shot dead the attacker, a Sri Lankan national who cannot be named due to court suppression orders. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the man was inspired by the ISIS terrorist group and had been under constant police surveillance.
Police were following the man when he went into the Countdown supermarket in New Lynn mall in Auckland. They said they had thought he had gone in to do some shopping, but he picked up a knife from a display and started stabbing people.

I got stopped from entering the County Courthouse because of my pocketknife. I asked, "What about my belt, aren't you afraid I might garrote someone with it?". I was also stopped and told I was not allowed to enter the courthouse with my walking stick I need to use outside of my house to get around with. They took it away and gave me a "loaner cane". I am 6'-2" and canes are too short to do me much good. When I was a kid, every boy in the 1st grade at our school carried a pocketknife. Couldn't play mummbly peg without it.
