The stabbing took place on Thursday morning in the city of Xiaogan in Hubei province, state broadcaster CCTV said.
The 53-year-old attacker surnamed Lu had previously been treated for mental illness, it added.
He is being held by police, who are investigating the attack.
The wounded person's injuries were not life-threatening, according to state news agency Xinhua.

Commentary:
Hmmm...., Mass knifing You have to keep those fully automatic knives out of the hands of citizens.
Mentally disturbed or otherwise, When someone is bent on mass murder they are hard to stop unless shoot them.
Like Japan, knives are regulated in China by length.
In Japan non professional household knives are restricted to 15 cm. in blade length.

Difference is China's murder rate is like 0.5 per 100,000 people and the US's in like 6 per 100,000 people.

Mentally ill people may tie mass stabbings to semi-automatic weapons.

And China's justice system is extremely harsh.

And China's justice system is extremely harsh.

Yes and no.

Depends what it is. If two men start punching each other, they might have to pay a fine. If a man hits his wife, they won't care.

They have executions, the US has executions too.

A drunk-ass farmer in central China once tried to kill me with a knife just like that!

It's more likely that the wife hits the man.
