I'd be more scared to get stabbed in Glasgow than in Amsterdam though.

Hmm, while knife crime maybe more common in Glasgow than anywhere else in western europe it's still rare and mostly restricted to rough areas (i.e. not "took a wrong turn at George Square" but "went deep into a troubled neighbourhood and kept going") and even then you'd probably have to be really looking for trouble or damn unlucky
It's because it's a crime to even carry a butterknife in your backpack.
