A champagne sabre is not a weapon – says Danish police

Dela / gilla:

At least not in Denmark. In Vinavisen.dk (a Danish wine newsletter) there has been a discussion of whether a champagne sabre should be considered a weapon and therefore require a weapons’ license. (A champagne sabre is used to “sabre” a bottle of wine – opening it by striking of the cork with a rapid blow with the sabre, a clear case of alcohol abuse in our opinion.)

Now, to clarify the issue, they publish a statement from a representative from the Danish police. He says that, well, yes, a champagne sabre due to its shape could be considered a weapon but that it depends on what you do with it. Unless you run around town with it, it is really regarded as a piece of household equipment, much like a big cleaver for example.
