@@EnglishCountryLife This is what I don't understand. I bought my Wave+ from Millets here in the UK a couple of months ago. Totally legal to buy and carry if you have a good reason, camping etc. What am I missing? Moved back to the UK after 15 years away. It has been a cultural shock coming back, we have turned into a real nanny state.
@@RussellChapman99 In effect as you say for a locking blade you have to be able to prove why you need it. For a sub 3" slip joint you don't need a reason. Its based on case law rather than legislation. The relevant law is S139a if the Criminal justice act www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/186911/Knives_and_offensive_weapons_information_GDS_FAQ.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiv2eq7zobpAhXTi1wKHQdjDegQFjABegQIChAG&usg=AOvVaw2TUajtDiR95DC9-z9bNVJZ
Love it! I have my grandfather's pocket knife and it is difficult for a city gal to open easily. I didn't know about this adaptation but plan to purchase one for it. I am glad I will finally be able to use my granddad's pocket knife in real life!
Interesting. But it looks like it might interfere with the action of opening the second blade. I certainly couldn't put it on a Swiss army knife, the blades are much too crowded.
That's an excellent point Alan. The stud is certainly only suitable for a single bladed knife. The bar is slimmer but would foul a second blade if close.
That's really neat, and a cute little knife too 😊
Thank you! I should have bought several when Trevor was alive, he charged less than. £40 for a hand made knife 😲
THANK YOU!
You're welcome John
BRILLIANT CHANNEL,
Thank you so much!
I have a Leatherman Wave+ multitool. One hand opening it is a doddle once you've broken it in. Very smooth, sweet opening
Sadly the Wave has a locking blade so is considered a fixed blade from a legal perspective

@@EnglishCountryLife I keep mine in my Go Bag, which I also use for wild camping. ruclips.net/video/ZbL35IXnpJI/видео.html
Very nice ideal! I've a couple of very "sticky" bladed little knives which need this. All your videos are most excellent.
Thank you! Hugh
Now that is good. Love it. I'll have to look those up
Cracking bit of kit!

Thats made my day 🙂
Pretty cool. I could actually use one of those myself.
They are very handy. Best suited to a single bladed knife really
Howdy neighbour! Good video!
👍😉 Howdy!
nice lil knife, bar looks better to me
They work very well!
Can you carry a locking blade on your own property?
On your own property you can carry anything that's legal to own. I often have a fixed blade on my belt here when pruning & tying in. Hugh

It is possible that filing down the side of the bar that faces the secondary blade would resolve the issue.
