I have also written to the powers that be. Unfortunately no one seems available to reply to me!!!!
Either that or they just don’t know.
Ask a police officer and they tend to go ape shit about it.
I carry knives and axes to various shows bushcraft shows – A fair reason to do so, but never been stopped so unable to test the law….

Any update on that James what did they say? I think the basic carry laws of three inches non lockable is what they will fall back on, but it would be nice to here that hiking, camping ect are acceptable common sense reasons to carry a larger knife.

I have tried IN VAIN to get an answer from the Home Office to the following question:

Is it legal for me to carry a sheath knife while Camping, Hiking, or taking part in a Survival Exercise?

THEY REFUSE TO ANSWER!

So I wrote to the Home Secretary, stating that they cannot write a Law, and not be able to tell a member of the Public how they can avoid breaking the said Law! If I give the circumstances, and ask if what I intend to do is LEGAL OR NOT, I expect the Home Office to be able to advise me EXACTLY how the Law would be interpreted by the Courts in that given situation.

After all, if the Home Office does not know what a Law means, HOW ARE THE REST OF US SUPPOSE TO UNDERSTAND THAT LAW?
