Sorry guys, some questions
I was into knife collection many many years back.
Back then regulations were very strict and only authorized dealers can import knives from overseas.
My only source was from Sheares.
Has the regulations changed?
Can we purchase knifes directly from online stores?
For every imported knife, do we have to register for it ?
Or just pertaining to knives over a certain blade length?
It's still pretty strict, but i think the officers now know their stuff better. As long as the knife is within regulations ( manual folders,not double edged, non balisong etc.) it should be okay.
You don't have to register for it. But there are may still be some custom procedures involved.Mainly GST related or they want to check if the knife is within regulation.
I remember a few years back Sheares told me that i will need a license to purchase knives from overseas, and tried to convince me that they are the legal source over in Singapore.Whether they still tell customers that, i don't know cause i don't patronise them anymore unless i need something urgently.
Hope this helps.
