In this P.C. world who knows and will the next one you come across view it differently. However it is a "saw" , not a knife blade ..........
Looks good though , are you getting it engraved as well ?

Still no corkscrew although that's needed less and less. :lol: It does look good though.

Those Gerber's are good little multi-tools. My personal fav are still Victorinox.

And you can legally carry a foldable, not locking knife with a blade no longer than 3 inches. Again if you ever got stop searched by a copper then it's down to you to explain what you intend to use it for. In the case of a multi-tool it should be self explanitory to most PC's (you would think).

Looks like the one on my legend, it should unclip and store separately if you're really worried.

just had a good look at it and your right :)

even more on the plus side it looks like a fairly standard black and decker jigsaw esk blade pattern




I didn't bother getting it engraved

Just found out that there's a devilishly nippy finger trap between the plier head and the handles owwww

Ooooh that looks very nice. If it was half the cost I'd consider it meself. Meantime, I'll stick with my UK legal SOG. Might as well have a blade since it's allowed and all that. :D

Yes it is cheaper, but you don't get a free Torch worth £19 ;-)
However, that torch is only £10.15 on Amazon so you would still be out of pocket.

The internet is full of stories of roving groups of coppers going around and searching prepper and collectors, but I think this is largly a over dramatic small group from big cities that are having this problem.

The police need reason of suspicion to search you, now if they say someone fitting your description did something then yeah you might get searched. Just have a reason for everything on you, if you don't have a reason then why would you want to lug around the exra weight?
