I really can't contribute anything but my condolences. I'm so sorry, guys. We've also seen this dance, we all know how it ends.
If we're going to go with guerilla dogrel....The more you hurt me, the more I bleed. And every drop that falls shall be a seed.
How can legislators be so good at making vague laws like this?
Yeah... the MTO island will need to be outside Canadian national waters now.But seriously, are non-OHO non-locking SAKs also affected? A SwissChamp is so heavy that it can probably also be flicked open, given a strong thumb nail and index finger, a loose pivot and a weak spring. (I need to try this out. Pity it's at home.) One could then overzealously interpret the extended position as "locked" (note the forum article text does not say how the lock is achieved) - the same spring resists retraction of the blade, initially in any case. I (still legally) brought it to Vancouver (BC) last autumn in checked luggage from Germany. So this year I can't?

Some more laws like these around the world and we really need to be thinking about making this a real thing.

Originally I thought Multitool Island should be in the Caribbean or South America, until I found that one in Quebec.Now I'm thinking South America or the Caribbean again. Def
How about just buying a large carrier and have it stay in international waters? It could move around the globe, avoid bad weather or conflict areas...
