Apparently since the anti social behaviour bill was passed customs will seize blades over 3 1/2" You regularly see "wont send to EU UK etc due to customs regs" in terms on EBay dagger auctions these days viz the NPEA student that was discussed this week in Misc dagger forum

Its an ebay thing not a customs thing. Ebay just banned selling them in the uk on a voluntary basis.
