You'd be fine if you were on way to/from a fishing trip aye but the fact it's not so easily accessible in your fishing box would help you there if for some weird reason you were stopped too. If you were stoating about town with a knife in your pocket and explained you were going to catch the bus to meet your mates for a fishing trip you'd have a far harder time proving your case (might still be possible though)
There are ways you can legally carry a knife but in the context of this thread no really and in the ways the daft naive OP is on about definitely not. |
