so you'd take a knife to a movie theatre when youre taking your cousin to go see a shrek movie? thats just idiotic sorry
[QUOTE=DragonGenX;22227063]Reminds me of a guy at my work who got arrested on the way to work for having a safety boxcutter for opening boxes.[/QUOTE]
Denmark?
OPs knife looks more like a shank than a tool, agreed.
why do you need a knife in a movie theater
is there going to be a brawl or something over the movie. you should've just left your knife in the car or at home. you don't really need a knife to watch a movie with a bunch of kids.
Tactical knife incoming, It's over! :frogdowns:

Can you not read? There's nothing "tacticool" about my knife, and it's not shitty at all.
[QUOTE=fenwick;22228652]That knife is clearly not intended for use as a tool of any sort. It is for tearing flesh. That is why you had a problem. Next time, don't bring a weapon to a kid's movie, and maybe you won't run into these problems.[/QUOTE]
I find serrated edging to be terrible at cutting, it gets stuck more often than cutting with the straight part.

[QUOTE=d3450;22230083]Damn that's one nice pocket knife.[/QUOTE]
Thanks.
[QUOTE=lorden;22231220]From what the OP said it seems like the theater just got a few police officers to chill at the entrance and search people, it might have been a crowded night and they thought the police would help keep people in line, theaters in my area will do that if they expect a huge audience for a film generally. Also, I used to live in Florida, and the law there is very convoluted. If you just read the law itself, it says that all weapons (including knives) require a CCL if you're carrying it in your pocket, but "common pocketknives" aren't classified as weapons by the definitions. I used to carry around a butterfly knife in Florida and I asked an officer who said it was fine and the other said some bullshit about blade length and serration and another said any knife was just plain illegal.
It just depends on your area, where I lived the cops were somewhat nice, except for the short cops, they would arrest you if you dropped a penny out of a hole in your pocket for a littering violation. I guess they're angry that everybody is taller than them so they take it out on us. :geno:[/QUOTE]
It wasn't crowded when I got there and they probably did expect a large crowd. Florida's weapons laws are very vague and I don't think there's any laws in my county about blade length and serration, well as far as I'm looking into them.
The police officers in my area are usually easygoing since we have a record low crime rate, I just happened to stumble upon the not-so-bright one in the batch.
[QUOTE=Greaterbeing~;22231920]why the fuck carry a knife into a movie theatre anyway? you clearly carry it around to show how cool you are so you deserve to get punished[/QUOTE]
I use my knife as a tool at work, I got off from work to take my cousin to see Shrek, I forget my knife in my pocket, I get frisked, and I was almost arrested.
[QUOTE=MR-X;22232131]Best thing is when going in to public places like that and depending on where you live is just to leave it in your car. I work and use a boxcutter myself along with a pocketknife/fold-able knife. I leave both in the car after work simply so i don't get any trouble, plus the need for a knife after work is almost non-existent unless I'm loading my truck and cutting tie down.
Most kids that use knifes like that are simply trying to be cool and usually play with them (Flipping them out then folding them.). That is why they crack down on shit like that, you might be more mature but they don't care about that. All they see is a knife and they don't want that in their establishment.[/QUOTE]
I couldn't have said it better, I'm going to pay more attention to if my knife is in my pocket when I go into a crowded area.
I've seen a kid hurt himself when he was flipping back the knife into the handle.

Why? It isn't a weapon any more than my flashlight.
My government has slated them as non-weapons in the law books because it realizes that they are tools.
And yes, I've used my knife inside a movie theater. Fuck you gummy worms and your fucking impossible packaging making a terrible racket while I try to gain access to your gooey insides. Mmmm gummy worms.
EDIT: And to everyone talking about the serrated edge: YOU DO NOT WANT SERRATED EDGES ON A FIGHTING KNIFE. Serrations get caught on flesh or bone and can dislodge the knife from your grip. As menacing as they may appear, serrated edges make a knife less useful in a fight.
i make my own knives out of the land
My state's (Colorado) gun laws are pretty damned relaxed. There's no gun registration, waiting period, nor any required permits to buy or own rifles, shotguns, handguns, etc. You can't carry them around, but you can keep loaded handguns and unloaded rifles/shotguns in your car. You can carry handguns concealed if you've got the permit, and it's pretty easy to get a one for anybody who's not a druggie, alcoholic, or convicted felon, and "Demonstrates competency with a firearm."
EDIT: ...And this is on topic because if the gun laws are relaxed, then the weapon laws are too. Right.

oh so youre doing that whole american 'exercising my rights for the hell of it' thing + how can you not manage to open a packet of gummy worms its not difficult
You should have hid the blade in your buttox
That way you could sneak it in without worries

Swiss Army will cut through plastic packaging like a hot knife through butter. Especially those annoying packages that are heat sealed on all edges so it's impossible to open without cutting.

Though I prefer Stanley boxcutters (Stanley are the best in my experience).

Yes I'm sure you've never encountered a package of food with a "tear here" cut that didn't work.
I'm not exercising it for the hell of it. I USE my knife on a near daily basis. Everything from cutting an apple to defeating those annoying clear plastic clam shells that electronics like to come in.
i dont see anything wrong with carrying a knife like that one
i take one with me when i go to places like NYC
OP's knife is way more useful than my Swiss army knife. Damn thing got dull in about 1-2 months after purchase.
Besides, it's Swiss [I]army[/I] knife. It's a tool that can be used to kill and wound just like OP's knife. No big difference between the two.

Well you are supposed to take care of your knife, sharpening and oiling every two weeks will keep your blade working like the first day you got it.

What county? I live in Broward county and I carry a Victorinox Swisstool all the time. Is that dangerous?
[QUOTE=Mattofwiles;22234050]What county? I live in Broward county and I carry a Victorinox Swisstool all the time. Is that dangerous?[/QUOTE]
I live in Broward county as well. I believe that a knife is only dangerous if it's poorly made, neglected, and/or used improperly.
So you use a Victorinox Swisstool? Looks like a nice knife.

I can't believe people are dumb enough to be on here attacking other people because they carry a knife because "it can be a weapon." What world do some of these people live in? I sometimes try to put myself in their mindset and only get a headache in the process. It's absolutely ignorant how some of you people are. "Why do you need a knife?" "Why do you need a gun for self defense?" "Why do you need this? Why do you need that?"
For one. I carry a knife. I have always carried a knife. To shank someone, right? Wrong. A knife is a TOOL. I have used it from cutting a seatbelt at an accident scene to cutting a piece of string while working on something. I carry a knife everyday at work. I have carried a knife on my person since I was eighteen. That's five years of me carrying a knife and. GASP. I have not managed to get the urge to stab someone yet.
But the way people act on here, I should have by now! It's impossible, I must be lying. Surely I must have shanked someone by now carrying a blade!
If I can't carry a knife. You can't carry a pen or pencil. Or your keys. Or have a cigarette lighter in your car. Those can all stab me, and the lighter can burn me! CAN'T HAVE THEM.
While we're at it. Let's just take your car away. You could most certainly get the urge to run me over with it. Because cars are bad and stupid. They can be weapons also!
Sheesh.
In Canada I wouldn't be able to carry any kind of folding or concealable knife, but I apparently am legally allowed to carry something like this:
[img]http://www.uberti.com/firearms/images/bowie_knife_lg.jpg[/img]
As long as it's clearly visible on my person. Given the nature of the public and police officers in general, one really doesn't want to test that law.

Yeah that is a lot like open carry of firearms in the United States. Technically legal in a shocking number of locations, buuuuuut not a law you really want to press.
I personally do not mind Open Carry (firearm), but it's those people that run around with their voice recorders and cameras intentionally trying to cause a scene with LEOs and the general population that ruin it for the rest.
