You can carry any knife you want unless it has a symmetrical blade of over a certain size.
>>68131472
>What are the odds that I'll get off easy if I just tell a cop I carry it for defense?
I would guess not good. It means you've stated explicitly that you intend to use it as a weapon. You need a license to carry weapons for self-defense. Yes, that exists here. Mostly applies to firearms, but the spirit of it would apply to knives as well.
Also, you should consider that SOP for police is to shoot you're behaving threateningly with a knife in hand. This is for good reason. A knife is a much more effective weapon that most people realize. Especially against firearms in close quarters, contrary to popular belief.

>>68131092
Europe does not have a distinct set of laws. Much like the US. When I was traveling around Europe doing that thing I do for the military, we looked into various knife laws just to be safe. In the vast majority of cases we discovered, pocket knives are viewed as weapons and not tools. Anything with any combination of the following was restricted in one way or another throughout Europe: locking blade, blade over 3", double/false edge, one handed opening, finger grips, knurling, hilt. Which of course eliminates about 95% of pocket knives on the market in the US. What we decided on was carrying Swiss Army knives. They met all the requirements and the red handle and cross is disarming.

It's for firearms, like I said. Rarely granted too. And there isn't one especially for knives. For use as weapons, they're basically only allowed as part of official uniforms. Otherwise, their only legal use is as tools, essentially.

I have had a Multi Tool and a folder in my pockets since I was in 8th grade.
The teachers knew it and I wasn't breaking any laws. Some American schools will give students detentions for a measly Swiss army knife.
Defend yourself burgers.
>>68131092
Depends on the country duh. At least in Finland it's pretty traditional to carry all kinds of blades. If someone asks just say you're a scout leader or some shit
>>68132658
I think you're the only one who needs to defend their country
literally
>>68132543
Guess so. It all depends on the circumstances.
>>68132819
Don't you think it's bogus that citizens aren't allowed to defend themselves? I mean even fucking pepper spray is illegal. The closest thing to a weapon someone can carry is a god damn whistle. Ridiculous.
>>68132658
>also being arrested for this
>>68132781
You are not making any sense John
>knives are tools not weapons
>>68132963
Myah, it could be a little less restrictive. But citizens are allowed to defend themselves, and their property, of course. Not by any and all means though. See nödvärnsrätt and nödvärnsexcess.
I wonder if you're allowed to carry black powder revolvers publicly. I mean, you don't even need a license to buy those.
>>68133115
>country lets thousands upon thousands of invading sand niggers in but doesn't need defending
stay a cuckold
>>68133366
Woah, woah, you're telling me that I could own a black powder revolver as a viable, legal home defense weapon? Or are they illegal to load with ammunition or some idiotic thing like that?
>>68131092
only in England . in France you can carry a gun but we don't do it , because we don't have any reason to do it.
>>68131092
It's a misdemeanor offense first two times they catch you with it here. With respective 200GEL(~90$) and 1000GEL(~430$) fine. Third time it's a felony. I've got 2 strikes. It sucks ass.
>>68131092

>>68133858
Bullshit
>>68132635
>>68131896
I did some research on this trying to win an argument a while back. All of the articles I found were about children choking on them in European countries (mainly the UK), and them subsequently being banned in the US because of what was happening overseas.
>>68131199
But yeah, no, those aren't illegal anymore in the US. I bought one last week from Walmart. They have them out for Easter. Honestly, though, I don't see what the big deal is. It tasted like shit and the surprise was gay.
>>68131092
A teacher went to me once to tell me that my Swiss knife was illegal while I was only using it to open glass drinks at school. Well walking around without ID is also "illegal" so it's on the same level as that.
>>68131092
its illegal in concealed carry states without a permit also stop pretending our laws are any better faggot
>>68131092
Illegal here in the US in most places too.
It's too long to carry in most states.
>>68133743
>Woah, woah, you're telling me that I could own a black powder revolver as a viable, legal home defense weapon?
Yes. If you can find one in good condition made before 1890 or so. Plenty of enthusiasts own and use them. Not the ones that have cartridges however.
>>68131962
You even realize how dumb you are?
That image was created by people like "us" - racists. It's making fun of leftists.
>>68134628
Those will set you back several thousand dollars
I don't even know how much ammo would cost
>>68134801
>Those will set you back several thousand dollars
An original Colt will, yeah. But not the European made ones that we have in abundance here. A few hundred to a thousand if you want one in decent condition.
But to be honest, I don't see the point of owning one for home defense. Like, just get a shotgun. All you need to do is take a week-long course.
>>68134244
>be italian
>never choked on kinder eggs
>>68134244
>But yeah, no, those aren't illegal anymore in the US.
Really? Sauce, my friend?
Yes. Also knifes are not really good defense weapons.
Mace would be more effective BUT it's also illegal over here (yes we are massively cucked).
>>68134628
Fuck. Late response because I got pizza but thank you. I'm getting me one of these, I don't give a fuck. I hate walking around in my own home and feeling like I wouldn't be able to protect it if jamal and his friends came and paid a visit.
>>68136742
It was a few weeks ago and I don't want to drive to Walmart tog get a new one. You'll have to take my anecdotal evidence at face value.
>>68136866
>knifes are not really good defense weapons.
exactly. Knives are better tools. Why would someone be banned from carrying around one of the most multi-purpose tools there is.
Can you at least carry a swiss army knife or leatherman
>>68133743
>>68134628
Just get a 12-gauge you retard. It's by far the easiest gun to get if you get it on a hunter's license and it's cheap, easy to use and effective as a home defense weapon. And reliable and easy to maintain. Ammo is super cheap.
I recommend a Benelli.
>>68137280
Yeah but that means I'll have to interact with people and I gotta put on this whole facade in order to nail the hunter's license test and make connections without the cops breathing down my neck and it's a whole ordeal, I'd rather just shell out for a black powder revolver right now and bada bing. Eventually I'm gonna start hunting and I'll deal with all that other bullshit then.
>>68137190
It all boils down to intent. If you shank somebody at 0300, during a bar brawl the court will assume you had a criminal intent.
But if you need a knife for some legitimate purpose it's fine to have it on you. It's not really a big deal.
So was this, once.
Europe is not America and they organise their societies according to their own specific needs. Europe is a homogenous white society free of niggers, so self defence is not as big a concern as it is in the less-than-50%-white United States.
Well, Europe WAS all of that.
Expect to see a relaxation of gun laws in Europe in line with the influx of subhumans.
>>68137462
As far as I know you still need a collector's license to have such guns.
Of all the licenses the hunting one is the easiest to get and the most permissive.
>>68137151
Fair enough. I'll keep my eyes out just for shits and giggles. You're sure it was an actual Kinder Egg, right?
>>68137190
You're not banned from carrying a knife, you're banned from carrying a weapon. At least here in Australia that's the case. If you're carrying around a sledgehammer getting ready to crack skulls that is as illegal as carrying a knife with intention to shank a bitch. If you're carrying around a sledgehammer with intention to bash in star pickets or something that's as lawful as carrying around a fuckoff huge machete because you're a butcher on the way to work.
>>68137541
>Expect to see a relaxation of gun laws in Europe in line with the influx of subhumans.
Lel, the EU is trying to ban semi-automatic rifles now. Thus far, Sweden has said "FUCK NO", actually.
This has more to do with our inherent need for hunting weapons here, however. We literally need to hunt, or society gets affected very adversely. Like, thousands of people more would die every year in moose collisions alone, if we didn't shoot roughly a hundred thousand of them each year. This land is still pretty wild, mostly. And people love to do it, too.
>>68137528
>>68137939
that's good to hear then
>>68137705
I'll look into all this shit more extensively. I can't believe it's too much to ask for a fucking GUN in this country.
>>68131593
I remember that cartoon from living in Norway as a child.
Just say you're a Sheik.
If they start interrogating you, cry muh religious freedumbs.
>>68131454
Yeah, that guy is lying, you can carry knives around here without any problem, folders can't be openable with one hand and fixed knives can't have a longer blade than 12cm, if you stay within these you can carry whatever you want.
14 year old edgelord tier knives like balisongs are banned though, but normal knives aren't
>>68131092
If its under 20cm or so...
As long its not an automatic opening one (can be spring assisted) or a balisong its all good. Back in the day those were so freaking easy to acquire here, but then the police really scared the chinese traders, now if you ask them if they have one they will all shit their pants and say no.
>>68137705
>As far as I know you still need a collector's license to have such guns.
Not here, you don't. They're completely unlicensed.
>>68137967
They have those fucking gay ass cartridge laws now introduced because of those goddamn animal rights activists.
Most hunters aren't allowed to have more than 3 bullets loaded and if you're hunting birds you won't be allowed to load more than two or three cartridges.
>>68138664

>>68131353
>that post
>that pic
Oh you funny man
>>68138934
That's retarded. It's much safer to hunt with semi-autos, and fully loaded magazines. Definitely from the perspective of animal safety and suffering, anyway. You're so much less likely to merely wound the animal.
>>68138950
Front oppening kinda sucks, because if you put too much pressure in the blade you risk ruinning the spring. Also if it accidentally opens in your pocket it might go straight for your leg (when you run, etc).
>>68131199
fucking kek
>>68139173
The benchmade infidel uses a rubber band to propell the knife, not a spring, meaning there's no energy stored in the thing while it's in your pocket. You have to push the switch in order to tense the band, then once the switch is pushed far enough, it unlatches the knife to shoot it out. The rubber band also means it doesn't shoot out hard enough to penetrate flesh particularly deep, especially not with a layer of clothing on top. Lastly it has a safety mechanism which makes the knife only lock in a rigid place if it's been extended all the way. If it hits something as it's being propelled outwards it pretty much goes "limp".
It's actually a whole lot safer than you might think. Look up DAOTF (Dual Action Out The Front) if you're more interested in how the mechanism works.

>>68131092
>Europe is a country durr
You can legally carry this in Poland (and anything smaller for that matter)
>>68139571
Never mind I'm talking out of my ass slightly. It does use a spring, but again, it's not tensed in an inactive state and thus does not store any energy.
>>68139150
Well unfortunately the animal rights faggots get what they want because most people are informed and naturally tend towards them because "muh animal suffering" so they keep getting insane shit passed.
If they could they would ban hunting seasons entirely.
>>68131092
I constantly carry around a knife with some waterpump pliers wherever I go.
Nobody says anything because I am a plumber and need these for my job.
If I would wear these with my regular clothes they would give me looks.
All depends on context.
>>68139738
Funnily enough, the only thing I've seen them complain about here is that we've nearly hunted wolves to "extinction" here. They seem to get the need for hunting in general, regarding most animals. Of course, I could be completely wrong, and I just haven't been paying close enough attention.

You can have them if you need them for work, I see plenty of people with them in belts.
>>68141367
There is no substitute for a good knife.
>>68131092
In France you can, but you need to say this is not for self-defense.
>>68142082
>yeah officer I am carrying this knife because it matches my eyes
>>68143038
Canada is basically the same. You can carry anything if it's a tool, but if it's a weapon then it's prohibited. Therefore it's all about context.
If you're carrying a folding knife on your belt you can easily say it's for work or general purpose use (eating an apple, whatever.) and 99.99% of the time you won't have a problem. I carry one clipped in my front pocket daily and have literally never been asked about it.
However if you carry a machete into a daycare or shopping mall, you're probably going to run into problems.
This is illegal to carry around in Europe too, isn't it?

Me too. I'm so glad that I don't need excuses to have a gun/knife on me and that self defense is something I'm allowed to do. I can't imagine how such a basic human right like being able to protect yourself is outlawed there. I may not like this country much, but god damn at least I can speak my mind freely and defend myself if people attack me.

I didn't say shit about Australia because Australia is irrelevant on the world stage. I said Europe. And it is illegal since criminals would have guns/knives, but not normal citizens. Good luck fighting a guy with your bare hands as him and his fellow junkies come at you with knives or a gun.
Here, we're allowed to own such items. And, as a result, criminals aren't the only ones armed in the country. We don't have to be victims here.
>>68145108
When you're not allowed to have knives or guns, how do you defend yourself against knives or guns? Self defense in effect is outlawed.

The law is sitting there in literally plain black and white and you can see with your own eyes where it says, quote, "it is lawful for the person to use any such force... as is necessary for defence."
It is not "in effect" outlawed. It is absolutely lawful.

Then you'll probably get shot. Unless you've got a world record draw then you're fucked regardless, senpai.
But, for the record, most muggers don't have guns. You can look it up. Firearm crime rates are much lower here than in the USA.

Yep, and knives are considerably less dangerous. This is where you're gonna start kicking and screaming about "NO KNIVES ARE 100% AS EFFECTIVE AS GUNS" but emergency room survival rates don't back up your story. Fuck off.

In the UK, you're only allowed to carry around a folding knife that doesn't lock and has a blade length of under 3 inches. Anything other than that, you have to have 'a valid reason' for having it on you e.g. carrying a samurai sword back from weeb training. Saying that, the police seem to be able to be complete cunts and confiscate anything without any real reasoning. Here's a guy getting arrested by police for having a chainsaw despite having a valid reason for having it on him:
