It was in my pocket when I went to Army Cadets. I had to teach some new guys how to put up a basha, so I used the knife to sharpen some sticks for tent pegs. My knife was taken off me, and very nearly sent to knife prison with all the wobbly handled Tesco kitchen knives confiscated by police. The CO at my cadet detachment is a police officer. I was simply told if he ever saw it again in a cadet setting, he would take it off me.
I feel quite angry that knife laws were allowed to expand to the point where a pair of pliers with a knife in the handle is now illegal without specific reason to carry. At one time any English Freeman could carry a sword on his belt. Talk about social progression.
Sometimes, I almost wish our society would collapse, so we could start again, with an airtight constitution that supported personal liberty, similar to Americas but with no room for interpretation by socialists who would reduce us to a 1984-esque police state.
Thankfully I was allowed to keep my leatherman, and so did not have to tell the nice policeman how I felt.
