Tonight, I pulled up the local Wiesbaden police-related news. There's three knife-related stories since Christmas eve in the city. There's a fourth story from the early hours of the 24th where four women got into a serious fist-fight (without the knives) in the middle of town, where cops had to come and lay down the law.
All of this comes in the week prior to the weapons-free zone law taking effect in the middle of Wiesbaden. The fine for just having a knife on you? It could go up to 5,000 Euro. My humble guess is that a threat or assault with the weapon will get you the max of the 5,000.....and just having a knife will be enough for a 1,000 Euro.
It's amazing how this knife-threat business has grown over the past five years in the city.
