Nope ,not legal to carry on person. Even a Swiss knife can get you in trouble here, depending on the location and circumstances.out in the bush, good to have a knife on board when you have a rifle and ammo too.then it's legal carry.couple of years ago, I was with some friends at empire state building, queuing up at the elevators, had an embarrassed kid , about 17,18 sheepishly hand over a 6 inch plus folder.
