· Every product for sale on the Bladebox site is entirely
legal to sell and to own in the UK
· When carrying or using a knife, there are a few simple
laws which may apply to you that you should be aware of: -
1. You can carry a small folding (non locking) pocket knife
with a cutting edge of less than 3” in any place in the UK that doesn’t
have specific restrictions against pointed instruments e.g. airports
2. If
you need to use a locking knife for added safety, or a fixed bladed knife
then you may be required to give ‘good reason’ for carrying
it if asked to do so by a Police Officer. Good reason may include,
pursuit of a leisure activity e.g. fishing, camping, hunting, or as a tool
of work or trade e.g. joiner, plumber or delivery driver
· Carry and use your knife responsibly. A knife is
a tool and an everyday object that should not be used irresponsibly.
