Icelandic knife laws

Hi All,

First thanks for reading my post. My wife and I are traveling to Iceland. If any of you have knowledge of the knife laws in Iceland, I would appreciate any insights you might have. I am one of those people who feel partially dressed if they don't have a pocket knife handy.

Thanks, Hank

chicago need a regime change. i live in s.c. here the police have no issues with my carrying a spyderhawk or chinook. every time i see a car from the n.e. or some other liberal place i think "here is one more liberal who will try to ruin s.c." i know this is judgmental but it is how i feel.

I clip a Tasman Salt Hawkbill onto my waistband for when I go running. I bought it specifically to resist rusting from my sweat. It has screws and not pins. I wish they made the Spyderhawk in another color than yellow. i wonder if the yellow color is a result of considering the sheeple factor. peop...

as stated above stay away from hawk bills. also i have personal experience with peoples reactions to a yojimbo or chinook. they are typically not positive. anything you have read about people mistaking the yojimbo for a box cutter is not consistent with my experiences. i can assure that snapping ope...

Jack
some folks keep the packaging. this is especially true for collectors. the blister packs don't look very nice after opening.
