My understanding of the law is that under 3.5 inch non-locking blades are - well, not ok but more acceptible. Im not asking for clarification of the law I know there are many posts about that and about good reasons etc.
But... what non locking knives are there i can only think of SAK, also when is a feature a lock. Im thinking leathermen which dont lock but do click into place and have extra support from the frame? So maybe thats two. I spend a lot of time out and about and would like to be able to take the oportunity to make whistles and the like when i find appropriate bits - ie probably not a good enough reason to cary, and also just easier to be on the right side etc.
Personally i like the opinel system but im sure that would count as a lock wouldnt it?
Sorry if this post should be elsewhere!
Any ideas....
