I think that knife crime can still hurt people even if you do not get tuched . Also think what you say because some people in this class might have gone through this .

I think that knife crime is wrong. But how many of those crimes are done out of defense? The victim might harshly threaten somebody and the criminal might be worried. Would this be classed as a fair result?
I suppose this is question of motive. Does it make a difference if people act in self defense? Would this still be seen as a crime?
After some thought, I have changed my past thoughts. Even if somebody commits out of defence, it would still be wrong. It wouldn't matter whether it was a purpose murder nor protection. So to answer your question, this would still be classed as a crime.

Knife crime is a very serious crime, it involves people getting damaged or effected with threatening harmful knifes.
Knife crime can also be when someone just walks with a knife or any contact to another humans being, I believe there is a lot of different views to knife crime but this in my point of view.

A knife crime is where someone threatens someone with a knife or carries a knife around in their pocket, it’s illegal

Good point.
Even if you don’t get hurt, you can be traumatised for life. It’s really scary. Especially if someone gets hurt during the process of crime....
