It may be 'UK legal' however I suspect the Police would still take a very dim view if they found someone carrying one. SimG what is your view on this, do you carry such a thing on your days off?

Some may think this strange........ I carry a knife every day! In fact, I have a Boker XS in my EDC cycle. Invariably, I have a slip joint, either Spyderco or Boker when going about my business. When I'm shooting, walking the dogs in the woods or taking myself off for a bimble, I will have a locking folder in my pocket, generally again, a Spyderco! At work, I carry a locking folder.
I'd lay a months wages that 99.9% of street coppers are fully aware of the legislation with regards to pocket knives. Non locking with a cutting edge of less than 3 inches, then you are specifically exempted from the law. Section 139 (2) and Section 139 (3) Criminal Justice Act 1988 applies.
That said, if you use a knife as a weapon or other tool to commit an offence, then the exemption above will mean nothing, likewise, if you are found in possession whilst committing any other offence.

If you got it from Heinnie then it is super fast delivery.
The XS looks better in the flesh than on the picture I posted.
I know 20series took his belt clip and thumb sticky out bits off and Ovenpaa has said he would as well if he was me, mine are still there, we'll see :)

I'm really tempted to buy one too. It seems to be really well proportioned and legal carry. Mmmmmm!

Would just like to add that I used mine for the first time today, to open another packet from Heinnie!
:lol:
My brother's birthday is coming up and I was just stuck re gift until I browsed Heinnie, didn't take long to find something that I think he will like.
