it may be a gray area for historical interest as maybe a sword stick is who knows ?

My understanding is that as an historical artifact an origional is ok in a museum or even a private collection but as soon as it is taken into a public area it become naughty, and i would guess that to sell an origional to a museum would be acceptable but i would not like to hazard a guess what the fuzz would say about selling one to a private collector (i suspect they would err on the "safe" side and do them). My feeling is that anyone selling one of these is in breech of the law (see Dave Pages post and its quite clear).

Only my opinion though and i could be well off in it.

so what about all the original ones that the dealers have you see at show,

so technically they are braking the law then ?

Yes. There is no defence based on age/antiquity etc.

So at the end of the day they arnt allowed in this country ,unless you get 2 and have one superglued up for good and have the other superglued open , or is that not allowed ?
