Yes, you are correct. When I was using the term "trench knife" it was used within the context of this thread in which it was presumed that we were talking about a knife with a "Brass Knuckle" guard. Yes, there are trench knives that have "D" guards, which I did not include in the explanation because I didn't believe there was confusion about "D" guard variants (we were talking about "G10 knuckle dusters" and making a "Canada legal Mark I Trench Knife" or a "US 1918 mk1 L.F.& C trench knife", etc).
But I am glad that you brought it up because my omission may have caused some confusion. Thank you (not sarcasm).
This is true. (But the Governor in Council could make new regulations to prescribe the knife as a "prohibited weapon" if, in the opinion of the Governor in Council, the knife is not reasonable for use in Canada for hunting or sporting purposes. Which is why I mentioned that if such a knife was created and if it garnered a significant amount of negative attention, the proper authority could prescribe the knife to be a prohibited weapon in the future.

We live in uncertain times.
For those who may be wondering, ShooterPHD was referencing an excerpt from a Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) document, entitled, "Memorandum D19-13-2: Importing and Exporting Firearms, Weapons, and Devices". See the following link:
