I agree,....if the blade is a locking blade then it is illegal, even if the blade length is ok, unless you have a reason for carrying it,... if you were camping for instance, you would be ok,... if you are down the pub for a pint, then you would be in trouble,.... if caught with it of course

IMO and coming from experience I really don't think you'd have a problem unless you used to threaten or harm other persons etc.

A locking blade of any length is illegal, unless explainable as a work requirement/tool. Builders, roofers, farmers, and the alike, are all able to explain the reason they are carrying the lockable blade.
I'd opt for not being caught or getting any police attention in the first place. But to be fair, that's not too hard to do.
But, under strict rule of law, to the letter, unless you can explain why it was on your person, in direct regard to being a requirement of your job, then yes it is illegal.

Very homely girl at work carries a mid price leather man in her hand bag. I told her it was technically illegal but since she looks like a charming housewife who would be baking you a cake she wouldn't get us much crap for it as if it was me.
I was thinking of getting a sog power lock and taking out the blade.

Even a screwdriver can be considered a weapon, if the police decide it is. Stupid hu?
