This has been reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 4 August 2015.

The knife was a bone handled folding hunting knife estimated to be five inches when folded and ten inches when extended.
A ban on all knives - except rounded or plastic butter knives – was introduced immediately after the September 11 terror attacks almost 14 years ago. In that terror attack, the hijackers took on permitted box cutters and used them to kill airline staff and, thus, took over the cockpits of four planes.
