Legal Issues

It is important to check local laws. For example, United Kingdom law allows only non-locking knives less than three inches long to be carried (Spyderco designed their "UK Pen" model specifically to comply with UK law).

Common restrictions include:

• Blade length (often 3 inches maximum).
• Blade deployment methods (switchblades and butterfly knives – balisongs – are often banned).
• Blade locks.

Restrictions on where knives can be carried (example: banks, liquor stores, schools, work places) should also be noted.
