@Jord666 you can't go wrong with Hennie Haynes. They categorise all of their knives and have the following UK legal carry category
https://www.heinnie.com/knives-and-tools/uk-friendly-carry-knives
Basically in the UK, a knife has to have a blade length of 3 inches or less, not have a physical lock (body lock etc), appear 'non threatening - vague, but nothing that looks like it's designed to be a weapon rather than a tool, so no zombie knives!).
Ultimatley it is at the discretion of the law. I work quite closely with the police, where knife crime is an obvious issue. Most confiscated knives are kitchenware, machete type affairs, or DIY shanks - anything untraceable.
Have a look at the above and you shouldn't go far wrong.

So of course they banned knives that don't match that description whatsoever.

I know. It is crazy what I've come across people being able to buy in th UK from other countries… Tazers that are sold as 'torches', replica firearms that can be made live or be rebored, not to mention the type of kitchenware readily available in any number of high Street shops.
I think legislators intentions are twofold, 1) manage the general public and populist media lobbying, 2) to keep offensive weapons out of the hands of criminals... Who may have stolen your legitimately owned collector's knife.

Actually those knives I do not carry every day with me.
Very nice indeed!
I do love this style of EDC post!!!!

Any recommendation for a Titanium, either Made in the USA or Made in Europe pocket flashlight that I can attach to my belt loop buddy? It should cover a distance of at least 150 meters. Any suggestions?

To be fair, the specifications it gives means a lot to flashlight nerds, and they're impressive. The narrative for the light is a little the top, but personally I think making a flashlight out of a higher strength material than aluminum and plastic is for suckers so they're catering to that crowd.
Oveready has been around for awhile, and they do impressive work. They have a weaponlight that will fit in the palm of your hand that supposedly puts out more light than a flashlight the size of a toilet plunger. The mods they do is likened to putting a 700hp engine in a Jeep Wrangler. Nobody really does what they do, though admittedly the level of power their lights put out relative to the size approaches the realm of diminishing returns. I'm pretty sure some of the lights get as hot as the guns they're attached to.
I've been around flashlights for a long, long time (one of my best friends back in NYC used to work for Surefire), and nothing has impressed me as much as the Surefire Stiletto. For the first time in decades, I think there has been some real innovation and there is a true multifunction flashlight in a package that has no negatives in ergonomics. -
