People don't need knives in the house. If you want to spread butter, you should be able to rent one, provided you can prove you aren't mental. People don't need killing weapons in their homes.
Makes sense right? Who cares if you use a knife to spread butter, or if I use a rifle to shoot holes in paper, both were only made to kill. And in Canada, knives kill more people per year than firearms. You should like, totally turn your knives in. Provided you don't wet your pants at the prospect of being near such inanimate killing machines of course.

This is the same thing over and over again with gun people.
Here's why your argument is ridiculous:
-Knives can be easily homemade, and regulation is impossible. Guns are the opposite.
-knives have many other purposes and are essential household items. Guns are not
-guns are orders of magnitude more lethal. How many toddlers accidentally killed their parent with a knife this year?
-the only reason more people are killed by knives is because there are regulations on guns and knives are everywhere. Reducing the number of guns still reduces the number of deaths
