here in Sweden we aren't allowed to carry any knife, not even a small SAK (swiss army knife) even though many still does it. we are only allowed to carry if its work related, or if you are going to hunt, but not to and from work =S

a man got a ticket because he wore his work pants with a knife on it when he went home by car. knife laws in Sweden are CRAZY!!!!

Oh man, that really sucks!

Man kann sehr wohl alle drei im Video gezeigten Messer überall in Deutschland jederzeit mitführen, sie müssen jedoch in einer Tasche getragen werden, die zb. mittels Reissverschluß zugemacht werden kann - Bauchtasche - Rucksack wäre ok.

You can carry all of the knifes seen in the video in public, but in your bag not in your jeans pocket, and not in your hand luggage on the airport - for sure :)

[Stefan Schmalhaus]

So eindeutig ist die Lage leider nicht. Es hängt alles an dem Begriff "verschlossenes Behältnis" (42a). Ein Rucksack mit Reißverschluss ist ein "geschlossenes" Behältnis, aber kein "verschlossenes", ein "verschlossenes" Behältnis setzt das Vorhandensein eines Schlosses voraus. Ich habe schon Scheiden/Etuis für Messer gesehen, an denen ein kleines Schloss (wie an Reisetaschen) angebracht ist.

Hi Stephan, thanks for your video. I think that the stupid law is better than a NO law. Here in Moscow i can store in my pocket (on the street) one hand opening knife with fixing mechanism and blade length <9 cm and bla-bla-bla, but it is all doesn't matter because, if the policeman decide, that you are "bad guy" you will be. And you even don't know what all this shit will finished. They can do everything with you, put drugs in your pocket or find your fingerprints in crime area. Good luck.

Try the Buck Solitaire slip joint. Very elegant knife.

i own MANY folding knife because i LOVE knifes, i wouldn't carry any of these because i'm going to have a gun license in the future and i dont want any difficulties getting that license, but i always carry my victroinox Classic SD or my askalit MT. but i wouldnt mind if i could carry my"byrd cara cara 2", not for self defense but for EDC use and because of 2nd kind of cool!!

I carry my SOG Aegis on a daily basis, and if i need to go to a bad neighbourhood im gonna carry a United Cutlery Assisted Karambit as soon as i get it for threat factor and eventual self defense.

Id rather take the charge for assault or attempted murder than dying.

[Pontus Jensen]

That my friend, is where you are wrong.

Theres a bit of a loophole in "knivlagen" where it says that you are allowed to carry a pocket knife as long as you use it for everyday tasks (letter opening, fruit peeling, box cutting, etc.)

[mintyvision]

i love the ladybug. its one of my most loved and used knives. its ridiculous neither you nor i can carry such a great little tool.

[mainenwo]

I like the paracord lanyard you put on your lady bug could you do a video showing how you make one of that style

[Chris Hornsby]

You could remove the thumb stud from the mini grip. problem solved.... your welcome. LOL

[JulianZeezer]

I would have never imagined it was illegal to carry such a small knife as the ladybug. The ironic thing is that in many of the more liberal areas of America -- where 'knife laws' are non-existent -- and even in the more heavily regulated areas like NYC or LA, I believe most police wouldn't look twice at someone who has a common clip-on pocket knife, but would hassle and investigate a person who carries a medium-sized screwdriver.

[Olle Jansson]

yeah!! but at least its legal to own knives, i've got assisted opening, machetes, locking, so we have at least that!! because i'm a big knife lover

Greetings from Sweden!!
