I'd personally class them in the lockers section.  I go by the theory of "If you have doubts so might a copper".

Good theory..

It's such a shame, they look so useful!

They do indeed.  The rescue one looks very tempting.

That's the one I was thinking of buying! It has all the features that my LM Juice lacks.

If it locks no matter the blade size could result in you being loaned some nice SS bracelets

The question is if it is actually a locker though.

My worry would be it kinda locks with the two halves of the handle,tho TBH I don't no how the law would perceive it as a slip joint  I''d air on the side of caution,the other thing is customs  would they see it as a gravity knife?

Agreed

Not bad.  A bit to pointy perhaps?  But nice none the less. The wood scaled version is a good price as well.

Does anyone else think the tip looks like that of a Douk Douk?



In seriousness I'm not sure I like the look of the tip myself, the proportion doesn't sit well to my eye.  Just a personal taste thing I suppose.

is there a page with a up date on the list ? as so many pages to go through   is the PST on there and the Kick ? and the micra  

[Benner]

There is also this http://heinnie.com/product.asp?strParents=&CAT_ID=0&P_ID=4982  Prefer the blade shape, but it's a bit manky looking.

Yes, the first post. 

May need updating though.

The tart in me really likes that   However I'm a poor tart so won't be partaking

[Benner]

The MOP isn't bad actually.

Nope don't like the look of that at all (though the blade shape is much better, I agree).  I makes me think of the cheap cruddy knives you'd get in pipe shops except this one costs at least £80.

I just looked, none of the ones Paul mentioned are on there for some reason.  Mike didn't write that bit did he?

Ah, I just read forward to page 2.  Discussion as the fact that when the handles are closed, it might count as a lock as they do stop the blade closing on your fingers.

Poppycock IMO, but maybe better to be safe than sorry.

[Benner]

If you read again, they do not count by our specs.

Beat me to it.

This is a 100% legal EDC thread, no if's or buts.  That's why it is like it is.

[Neil]

Probably not included as they could be considered frame locks.  i.e. when deployed they can not simply be folded back into place.  I think it would take a court to decide .... and no I'm not volunteering to be the test case

I think when this thread began the deal was we'd only put on the list stuff that was 100% certain. 

You guys are fast

You've put me off too now! I've always thought the tips of Douk Douks are really ugly.

Right peeps, I have gone through and I believe this is all up to date again.  Anything I have missed just let me know.
