Just out of curiosity, do you often give police officers a reason to stop and search you? What is it in your behaviour that gives them that reason.
Personally I've been stopped by police when in the car but never searched. Even when I couldn't stop laughing at the village people motorbike cop complete with the dodgy 70s tache. If they'd searched my car there was a locking blade in one of the front, door side pockets. It was a gerber and only an inch and a half long blade but probably not legal. For years I had that knife stashed in a small pocket in my outdoor trousers. I forgot it was there and it was so small and light I never felt.it.
My point is there's three ways to carry a knife. Carry a legal one, carry one that would be illegal if you didn't have a justification and carry one but in a way that it can't be seen plus you don't give them a reason to search you. The last one is technically illegal and risky but personally I'm yet to be stopped with any knife. I must look innocent!
Anyone think this last option is too risky? Anyone else does this too?
