    I always carry a knife

    It’s not an offence so long as you use it as part of your job. Which is a bit tenuous for me, but I do use it regularly for field work.
    I try and remember and not have it with me at football grounds. But often forget. Still I have never had it taken off me, even when searched. I guess I don't look like trouble.
    Before 9-11 I often forgot and took it on aircraft with the same reaction. Bet that would not happen now!

    most of them are purely 'ornamental' anyway, either made of wood or a very thin piece of metal.

    Just remembered.

    </p>

    When I did the punchbag thing I walked down the car park and into the ground with an eight foot heavy chain over my shoulder and a knife (used for re-wrapping the tapes) in my pocket past all the coppers and stewards. I'd expected to be explaining every step of the way but the firsttime I was questionedwas pitch-side when one of the stewards casually asked, &quot;What's that for mate?&quot;</p>

    I was going to say it'd be fun to see what you could get in with but I think things have tightened up a bit since then.</p>

    RE: I always carry a knife

    I had an allen key taken off me at airport security in Dublin, I'd forgotten it was still in my bag after cycling to work a couple of days before. I was also made to take my shoes and belt off (I was already running late for my flight).

    Although I am a gay Palestinian*.
