76 UK has a weirdly disproportionate amount of Japanese weapons banned. 5 types of them (in comparisan to no other foreign weapon) and now they are banning a 6th type "ninja swords".

Shuriken
Kyoketsu shoge

All ninja weapons
Uk has a ninja phobia
(Kubotan is not a ninja weapon but it was invented by a Japanese American for self defence. )
Interestingly, their definition for "shuriken" doesn't cover the classic straight-blade or spike shurikens.
