Warnings over knife disguised as credit card holder

  • Central

Police are warning about a knife which folds up into the size of a credit card holder.

The credit card knife contains a three inch blade with the ‘credit card’ folding into a handle.

A man got in touch with West Mercia police concerned a young person he knew had purchased the knife.

The knife has been seized but police want to remind people what to look out for and reiterate the dangers of carrying a knife.

They're calling on parents, teachers, carers, even security guards and door staff to be aware of this item and be extra vigilant.
