Last time I checked, London had a huge problem with teenage gangs running around stabbing people. At least we use ours responsibly!

must of been a few years ago, knife crime has been on the decline recently. plus kids get stabby cos they can't get shooty.
last time i checked the usa had a problem with teenage gangs running around shooting people. at least we use our guns responsibly!:cheers:
when i worked as a studio assistant i carried a leatherman, hardly ever used it... in a bikeshop i carried a park tools allen key set, no need to carry a blade. in a warehouse, if i needed a blade, i'd get one. no one with half a fucking braincell would use a knife to open a box, too easy to damage the goods. all you need to do is use your hands. working on a building site (construction to the americans) i never needed a blade. power tools, hods, barrows, yeah. knives? nope. as a kp (kitchen porter) i never needed a knife. same for working in a pub, shoe shop, paper boy, cycle messenger and all the other bollocks jobs i had to do as a kid. never needed a knife.
but if you need one, fair play. i never have. i've never lived in suburbia, i've always had the convenience of living in a city or on a farm. i guess it is different for you lot.

Under 3" blade, no lock.
Edit- Speaking for the UK, though I'm in the us.
Skypilot:
Over here you're not allowed to carry a locking or fixed blade without a motive (i.e hunting, fishing, hiking...), but there is no limitation to blade size.

I like this idea
Brendan O.:
Out fishing. Be right back!
Also, for the not natives; image-googling "guy with huge sword" yields a different kind of results than one might think of beforehand.
