Authorities Require Uyghurs in Xinjiang’s Aksu to Get Barcodes on Their Knives
2017-10-11



Authorities in Aksu prefecture in northwestern China’s Xinjiang region have begun implementing a government policy to affix identification codes to knives belonging to Uyghurs as a futher security measure in the restive area, sources from the prefecture said.

The policy of applying QR, or quick response, codes to knives is part of new security rules requiring owners to have their cutlery registered and stamped so that it can be traced to them in the event that the knives and choppers are used to commit acts of violence.

There is your "knife registration";  note, this is law mainly pertaining to Muslims, the article also states:

Authorities are also confiscating knives from Uyghurs as part of a “Three Illegals and One Item” campaign under which items deemed by authorities to be tools of terrorism, including knives, flammable objects, remote-controlled toys, and objects bearing symbols related to Islam, are being appropriated along with copies of the Quran and prayer mats.

Supressed's post above notwithstanding, I can't say that I disagree with the Chinese on this one.

The Chinese ain't foolin' around!
