Can you point or even use weapons on Twitch?

As long as everything is legally legal and nobody is endangered?

Twitch only says: "Using weapons to physically threaten, intimidate, injure or kill others"

That wouldn't be the case.

You are not allowed to. Remember a case where someone pulled the trigger by design and was banned

Di

Well, "by mistake" also goes in the direction of endangering oneself.

Lu

No.

Pi

Huh and fortnite

It's clear what it says and what it means.
It's not about what you do, but what you could.

Even waving a knife is forbidden or with pepper spray whatever.

Al

This is a game and not reallife

Knives aren't weapons, are they?! (apart from combat knives, daggers, Kerambits etc.)

Re

Of course, knives are weapons.
Strictly speaking, everything is a weapon, even a cell phone when used properly. But a knife is always part of a weapon. But it depends on which knife falls under the weapons law.

Weapons are

1.

Firearms or equivalent objects and

2.

portable items,

a)

which by their nature are intended to eliminate or reduce the ability of people to attack or defend themselves, in particular cutting and thrusting weapons;

b)

which, without being intended, in particular because of their nature, handling or mode of action, are suitable for eliminating or reducing the ability of people to attack or defend themselves, and which are named in this Act.

Except for daggers, combat knives, Kerambits, etc., knives are not weapons. https://www.knivesandtools.de/de/pt/-esee-knives-modell-6-grau-esee-6p-ko.htm e.g. Is not a weapon either. By the way, there's supposed to be a US American Twitch streamer with M4 assault rifles hanging in the background, I don't know if that's true.

Something like that, falls under the Weapons Act & may not be carried with you.
Yes, knives are theoretically often referred to as "tools", but it's not that easy, just because the blade is already longer than 8.5 cm.

The law you quoted says quite clearly something among other things. A knife is.
Only Section 1, Paragraph 2, Item 2a) of the Weapons Act is to be mentioned here. You also quote it above.

According to the Weapons Act, knives can be viewed as weapons, as they are objects that are capable of causing injuries or killing.

Otherwise, you can simply reread everything here as well: https://www.bussgeldkatalog.net/waffengesetz/messer/

§42a has nothing to do with weapons

8.5 cm is the limit for switchblades. In this case, 12 cm are relevant

https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/...2/__2.html, if all knives were weapons that would mean that children are not allowed to use knives, which is of course wrong.

The site is the biggest garbage, they write, for example, that the safe storage of knives must be ensured, etc. More important is the law. https://www.bka.de/DE/UnsereAufgaben/Aufgabenbereiche/Verwaltungsfunktionen/Waffenrecht/Feststellungsbescheide/Messer/messer_node.html;jsessionid=C0F863F43B2F1B096A398E860A6C791A.live2291, https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/...__42a.html and http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/...age_2.html is everything you need to know
