I am surprised that we are aloud
to have a SAK as long as the blade isn’t
longer than 3 inches and the blade doesn’t lock :think:

I've legally walked in front of a court house with a 4" sheath knife on my belt. I had just cause for it. The sub-3" non-locking law is only for when there's no specific reason.

As far as I know, it would be up to a court to decide what is good reason, so from what I understand, you could still be arrested and charged for that... I could be wrong.
Anyway... when I was young I had a cast metal catapult and I let go of the wrong end by mistake... I've not touched one since. :facepalm:
2. Elements of Arrest under section 24 PACE
2.1 A lawful arrest requires two elements:
A person’s involvement or suspected involvement or attempted involvement
in the commission of a criminal offence;
AND
Reasonable grounds for believing that the person’s arrest is necessary.
• both elements must be satisfied, and
• it can never be necessary to arrest a person unless there are reasonable
grounds to suspect them of committing an offence.
But you do have to bare in mind the differences in geography, USA 85 people per square mile, UK 660 per square mile. Plus all land here is owned, no public landThe more people squeezed together, the more that has to give.
Some people say that here. It's just bad spelling. :pok:
Off topic but why do you say draw instead of drawer in England ? :think:
Sorry for my bad spelling.It's no problem. :cheers:Off topic but why do you say draw instead of drawer in England ? :think:
Well, Wales has a little town, with 42 bookshops, that claims to be a sovereign state. :think: That’s abnormal, isn’t it? :D

He's contradicting himself a lot there, one minute he's saying its perfectly legal to carry the next its he's saying its up to a police officers discretion if he confiscates it
This is misleading
The police do not have the power to confiscate legally held property?
This guy is really good with a slingshot. I've chatted with him on a different forum and he even uses bolts (small arrows) with his slingshot for fishing. Anyway, here is one of his videos were he is shooting his slingshot while riding a long board skateboard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCgU76_QVYM
He is in Florida, USA. I'm in Arizona, USA and can walk into the local Wells Fargo with a gun openly carried on my hip. I shudder to think about not being able to feel safe from the law just for walking around with my slingshot and ammo pouch (dump bag).
