Just for information i didn't know that any locking blade is illegal even if it is in  a swiss army knife,leatherman etc.. how many of us carry a leatherman when we are off roading etc..?? if you get stopped for any reason you can get done for it unless any one knows different? Please let me know Thanks :? Oh i had mine confiscated going on to the london eye!!  SWMBO was not happy i was removed from the Q to fill out a form very embarssing :oops:

:? Put in a search on google it's an eye opener!!!

floyd fan:
Bladed items etc:- 139 Offence of having article with blade or point in public place.  Applies to a folding pocketknife if the cutting edge of its blade exceeds 3 inches.  

So if your leatherman is less than 3 inch blade then it is legal.
