Are you sure it is the cutting edge that has to be 3" or less, I thought it was the blade ?
What would stop you legelly carry a 5" blade but with only 3" ground to an edge at the front ? Ok it would not be a practical knife for everyday use but would be a really dangerous knife if someone wanted to use it for criminal activities.
The link below says 'Blade'. It is a .Gov one, but other sites say 'Cutting Edge'.

Dont wish or want to turn this in to a debate,(plus I am going out in 20 mins), but can you provide an official link to say that it is the 'cutting edge' ? I may be (and probably am wrong) but cutting edge makes no sense to me. You could in theory carry a 3 foot folding non locking sword legally as long as only 3" is ground to a sharp cutting edge ??
Post a thread on British blades if you want clarification. Sorry but haven't got time to collate all the links.
the law says cutting edge but i always make sure the blade is >3" to be sure
SVORDS are nice enough but i find them a little large for EDC - SVORD took notice
The PKM should hit our shores soon (hennie will be getting them in)
PKM? which one is that?
i could be interested in one o those
The top 2,PKM...peasant knife mini,smaller than the larger version we have.Heinnie's will be getting these soon and sure they will sell out fast.

I hope they took off the uncomfortable tang bit that digs in your hip if you bend over with and made it short enough that you can bend your knee with it in your pocket.Im checking heinnies twice daily and will give an heads up with news!!
