The Monologue on the theme about a naval dirk
Naval dirk - it is interesting. I have no dirk, but I understand that a dirk (naval dirk, military dirk, dirk of an officer, dirk of an official), - a beautiful symbol. Symbol of the person involved in the solution of a State Missions.
Met an article about a naval dirk by chance (57000 viewings. 155 comments). Could not resist, read the article and comments (https://zen.yandex.ru/media/oldbox/hotel-kupit-morskoi-oficerskii-kortik-no-iurist-zapretil-sokrovisca-baraholki-5c3de4ba9d1f1d00aa3fc755).
As always: "the same" ("for fish pennies") - it is possible? - it is impossible (it is permitted - it is not permitted)? What legal bases for acquisition and storage?
Firstly, it follows from the comments that there are naval dirks, and there are copies of naval dirks (copies are made of some "wrong" grades of steel). According to the commentators, the rules do not apply to copies of the naval dirks.
Secondly, from the comments it is clear that the rules regarding the acquisition, carrying, storage, etc of naval dirks are constantly changing (and, perhaps, become complicated). Let's wait when lawyers - specialists in legal regulation of a (civil) circulation of dirks appear.
Thirdly, someone makes remarks that even if to set the task strictly to observe all requirements about dirks, then it is difficult to make it not only owing to variability of the legislation, but also owing to real circumstances. For example, were issued in earlier years, Dirks (officially) without those documents, which in today's days (now), can be requested using the formal procedures.
But not (only) it is interesting. It is curious how through a discussion about rules of a (civil) circulation of dirks the same subject constantly appears: a respect for a dirk.
"Family relic"!
"To me from the grandfather of times of the Second World War got!" ["To me from the grandfather dirk was transferred - the dirk of period of the Second World War!"]
"I had [recieved] from the grandfather the aviation dirk of 1950 in perfect tune. And it is unlikely during my life I will part with him".
"My father had [was the owner of] the exact same dirk. Just "older" - the dirk "older" period of 1965 - 1960s. Now this dirk is lodged to the nephew for a keeping".
"The main thing - to keep a thing for descendants ..."
People are proud. A dirk - a symbol. Possession of a dirk to some extent forms the identity of the owner.
What sense in this legal mass of rules? In this infinite casuistry? Who can understand it? To whom it, this casuistry, is necessary? Well "hooks" and "traps" not specially are continually placed? That would everyone be powerless and vulnerable? There is a risk of plunders of the state property? But plunder is pursued irrespective of, a dirk, or not dirk, is stolen.
It seems, in any large city it is possible to meet a big or small shop where whether dirks, whether copies of dirks are on sale (and other types of cold weapon). Who upon purchase will ask certificates? Who will carry out expertize?
The simplest decision - to enter a phrase in the law: "storage, inheritance, donation of cold weapon is allowed without any restrictions". I assume that the formulation can be modified in case of "deep immersion" in a topic.
Why not to allow also a carrying [cold weapon]? A law-abiding persons [ legitimate people] often are unarmed (unlike a not law-abiding).
The owner of a dirk is a good person. (I speak - in principle. I do not think that for criminal persons there is an interest in possession of a dirk).
Also it is not necessary to make the owner of a dirk a potential offender (a potential delinquent).
The unambiguous formulations allowing a storage, inheritance, donation of dirks are necessary in the legislation.
People will quietly own the dirks of their fathers, grandfathers, more distant ancestors - people who served the State.
