Ontario RAT 1. The steel isn't as good as my spyderco or benchmande knives, but I find the shape and size to be more suited for my hand and uses.

What are the penalties?Well, I won't say I carry one anyway and take my chances, but....
When I was an eight year old cub scout I was REQUIRED to carry one, now as an adult I am not allowed. I even sometimes carry a cubscout knife, to make the point. I only need a small slipjoint knife for 90% of my knife chores.
They change, but at minimum I believe it is a $1000 on the spot fine, and maximum it is a couple of years in the slammer. Obviously, if you are going to be sentenced to prison it would be done in court, so I guess the judge would evaluate the level of the offence.What are the penalties?
Gotta love those little evil genius brothers! I am one and have one.I’ve had the Swiss Army knife in my pocket since I was about 6 years old. I took it everywhere with me, especially when I played in the woods. The pockmarks along the blade are from my evil genius little brother who took apart an old film camera a few decades back and turned the flash into a homemade taser (my poor knife was the first test subject). These days my EDC is a Spyderco Harpy Hawkbill.

As handy as it is to mount the Spydie clip l/r/u/d it makes them really fugly. I like the old versions incl. chamfered holes better...I’ve had the Swiss Army knife in my pocket since I was about 6 years old. I took it everywhere with me, especially when I played in the woods.

I need to post a REALLY cool picture of my OLD Leatherman knife when I get home. Probably 25 years ago I was wiring a small electric fan to blow heat from my woodstove down the hall to our bedroom area.I’ve had the Swiss Army knife in my pocket since I was about 6 years old.
