o genuine relgious purposes

You know, I think I've read in u.k. if you get so many members you will be given official religion status, like how jedi is now recognized as an official religion.

Nice idea!

An MTO religion.

I wonder how many members you need?

So where can I buy a lightsabre...

Benner....would the PP be viewed as a form of frame lock? I honestly don't know and reckon it would take a stated case at a court to decide it.

As a mod why don't you sacrifice yourself for the greater good

Although I love this place, I don't love it that much.

I'm torn now whether to add the PST for example to the list now. $:-\$ I can't say I would ever be worried about carrying one.

Gerber Shortcut - http://www.gerbergear.com/index.php/product/id/89 and Gerber Clutch - http://www.gerbergear.com/index.php/product/id/97 added as I am safe with those.

Given the present climate perhaps it would be wise to keep the list to those we know to be legal rather than think are. Then again, given the reaction of people to any size or shape of blade we could just give up now and just presume they'll be grief if we dare to use a Classic in a public place $:-\$

It might also be an idea to mention that vehicles are also considered public spaces and that all bets are off as to what you can or can't carry on the public transport system

Isn't the law so much fun

I think you are right, this list should be definites only.

The Knifeless Fuse http://leatherman.com/multi-tools/full-size-tools/knifeless-fuse.aspx is a safe one as it has no saw or knife.

Very true that.

I wonder what would happen if I waved around a blade of grass a bit too vigourously?

You'd be carted off for sure but not for breaking the law

One of my personel favourite that I just can't justify owning coz of the price

Falkniven U1 http://fallkniven.com/u1/us-u1.htm

Are they that much more than a UKPK? Not really, now go buy one so I can play with it

"The blade is instead held in place with an springsteel key, a technique which has been in use for more than 100 years and which ensures that the blade does not fold." They seem very confident of that

Anyone own one of these?

I'm waiting for Spyderco to get there arse into gear and get the Urban out

, but it is really tempting as it's a cracking wee knife

I think Bob (Bison) has got one, but that might be a U2 I can't remember
