UK: Man sentenced to four months in jail for carrying Master Sword replica in public - My Nintendo News

Nuneaton resident Anthony Bray, 48, was arrested by Warwickshire Police on June 8th, 2024, for possessing a “bladed article” in public that was sharp enough to be used for violence or intimidation- a point that Bray acknowledged during his confrontation with the police. He also remarked that the 6-inch replica of the “blade of evil’s bane” from The Legend of Zelda was a fidget toy, but officers explained that the properties of the toy’s blade, and more critically, his behaviour, nonetheless violated law.
