At first glance, I read that as "6 years for having a wife in a public
place".

Nice work by the bystanders.


How many years would be applicable for carrying a chisel?


There can be no valid reason for having a 10 inch bladed survival knife
while riding a bike and getting into rows in the street.

Having a chisel in a public place could have many valid reasons to
explain its presence.

The possible sentencing would depend on many factors.

But Pounder admits to carrying the chisel for the purpose of confronting and injuring cyclists.
It is therefore possession of an offensive weapon with intent to cause bodily harm.
