It does matter that knives appear to be rapidly losing favor with the criminals whose intent is to intimidate a victim to gain compliance.

The conclusion being the knife is not as effective in reality as one would suppose.
That is a conclusion that could be reached. That is not something confirmed simply by looking at crime percentages.

Obviously it is not knives.
It seemed to me that the argument was that a knife could be used for psychological intimidation, not that it was the only option.
