Because you have a conscience. It's not a bad thing to feel guilt.

Well, it depends why you are buying knives. If you aren't doing anything dangerous with them, you shouldn't feel guilty about having them.

Why exactly do you want to buy them?
Also its actually illegal to be sold a knife before 18, at least in the UK it is.

In the US, I think that a 3 year old could buy a knife if it wanted to. I bought a knife in the supermarket recently.

What parent does like their child having a knife? You pretty much answered your own question by saying you'd feel guilty.

thats the thing, i get angry with being made feel like a freak and a crazy person because i like knives, guns and other dangerous stuff. I dont do anything wrong with them, i dont take them to school, I use them for work, I carry one with me on a regular basis so that if i need it i have one. I dont carry a machette, i carry a 2 inch folding knife.

Actually you are slightly wrong. The age of buying knives in Scotland is 16. It is 18 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. However some stores will probably have a store policy possibly stating 18.

thats the thing, i get angry with being made feel like a freak and a crazy person because i like knives, guns and other dangerous stuff.

Also you are aware carting knives around with you especially at the age that you are is illegal? You could probably get charged for having a knife on you.

I take it the knife you are describing folds into the handle? then you press/flip the knife out when ready for use? If police found you with that then I believe they would most likely question your intentions with said knife.

Just buy a set off amazon. No questions asked. Of course I hope you'll be using it for the right things.

That's the most dangerous type, if someone finds out you have one even if your intentions weren't to harm someone, you will get arrested. I don't think its wrong you like shit like that, i'm obsessed with fire but I wouldn't take it out in the really world. It's just morally wrong.

no im in australia and folding knives are legal if they are not assisted opening, i cant press a button to open it or flick it out so its entirely legal. Its also fairly obvious im carrying it because the clip hangs of the side of my pocket.
