Buying knives online – is that allowed?

Some customers or buyers are concerned with the question of whether buying knives online is allowed.

The banal answer to this question would be: Yes, this is generally allowed. Because if it weren’t allowed, there shouldn’t be any knife online shops or online marketplaces that offer different knives for sale.
