\"All knives sold in the United Kingdom should have a GPS tracker attached to them, according to a Conservative MP.\
\
Scott Mann, who represents North Cornwall, called for the move on Thursday as a potential means to reduce knife crime.\
\
Writing on Twitter, Mr Mann said: \"Every knife sold in the UK should have a gps tracker fitted in the handle. It's time we had a national database like we do with guns.\
\
\"If you're carrying it around you had better have a bloody good explanation, obvious exemptions for fishing etc.\"\"\
