Affiliate Disclosure

By Sunny Patel Editor Updated

Short answer

My Knife Guide may earn a commission when you buy through a retailer link, including Amazon Associates and Awin retailers, at no extra cost to you. Commission never changes a carry-status label, a legal claim or which items appear on this site.

Last checked:

My Knife Guide may earn a commission when you click a link on this site and buy a product from a retailer. This costs you nothing extra. This page explains where that applies and what it does not affect.

Affiliate links appear on product listings for legal pocket knives, kitchen knives, sharpeners and related safety gear. Retailers include Amazon Associates and retailers reached through the Awin affiliate network. Not every link on this site is an affiliate link. Links to legislation.gov.uk are never affiliate links. The same applies to gov.uk and other government or news sources.

What commission does not change

Commission never changes a carry-status label. A knife is labelled “legal to carry,” “good reason needed,” “illegal to carry in public” or “banned”. That label is based only on its blade length, its lock type and UK law, regardless of whether My Knife Guide earns commission on it. Commission never changes a legal claim about what the law allows or prohibits. It never changes which facts or statistics are reported.

What is never linked

Banned items are never linked to a retailer. This site does not recommend or facilitate the purchase of anything illegal in the UK. That includes anything illegal to sell, buy or import. A page may discuss a banned item. The banned knives page is one such example. It does so to explain the law. It does not do so to sell the item.
