Does that ban affect ALL knives, even a typical Opinel or Swiss Army knives or just larger ones that lock open?



What if a Frenchman has to defend himself from a human (criminal) or a dangerous dog? Is that legal? If one gets arrested for having an illegal knife, would the police withdraw his gun licenses, if any?
