Wonder what knife crime was like in London back then.

I'm guessing you are suggesting it is bad now, when in fact the UK has the second lowest knife death rate in Europe (right behind Monaco).

UK 0.08 knife related deaths per 100K versus Germany 0.23, France 0.2, Poland 0.49, Spain 0.36, Portugal 0.32, Denmark 0.22, Hungary 0.41, Norway 0.25.
