The Chairman of the Post Office says almost 50 knives were confiscated by the Post Office in the last four months.
Stu Peters MHK was asked how many had been confiscated by the service in the last six months by Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse.
Mr Peters said that the Post Office only held data from November, but he was surprised by the statistics.
