Spyderco UK Penknife Rescue C94GOR2 The serrated edge is designed to cut through fibrous material like seat belts, synthetic ropes etc with one pass of the blade. The blade has a blunt tip for added safety, non-locking, notch joint to prevent accidental closure and is legal to carry in the UK.

'Spyder-Edge' consists of two step serrations with a repeated pattern of one large and two small serrations. A serrated edge increases the effective cutting edge length by up to 24%. The sharpened recesssed curve has more linear cutting surface than a straight edge. Edge retention is also greater because cutting is started by the serrations' tips, easing the workload on the recessed edges, and protecting the sharp inside cutting curves which wear less over time.

Spyderco Knives 'SpyderEdge' can easily be re-sharpened by using the pointed angle of a fine ceramic Sharpmaker stone. When sharpening, the point of the stone will slide in and out of the serrations. Both sides of the blade should be sharpened, even though serration bevels are present on one side only.

Recent media reports on the general subject of knife crime have led to a re-examination of the law in the UK. Carrying a knife in public in the UK, without a good reason is already prohibited. The only exception is a non-locking pen knife with a blade no longer than 3 inches.

The large majority of folding-blade multi-tools in circulation have safety locking blades. The SOG Pocket PowerPlier S44 Multi Tool is one of the few high quality non-locking blade multi tools which is perfectly legal to carry in the UK without any particular reason.

Legal to Carry in UK Handy Niknaks UK Legal Knives A large number of normally law-abiding citizens are unwittingly breaking the law on a daily basis by having a lock-knife in a public place. The length of the blade is irrelevent, as lock knives are treated the same as fixed blade knives in the eyes of the law in the UK.

The only knife allowed to be carried in public in the UK is a non-locking pen knife with a blade no longer than 3 inches. There are certain exceptions, for example where the knife is needed as a tool of the trade or part of a traditional costume. This is the legal definition of 'Penknife' and it is perfectly legal to carry a penknife without any particular reason.

Benchmade Apparition BM670 Assisted Opening Lock Knife made in the USA with a locking, 154CM steel, modified Wharncliffe style blade. Not to be confused with automatic knives, assisted opening knives do not open at the press of a button. The blade is held closed until it has been manually opened past the thirty degree position. Once the blade has been partially opened, it then engages a spring to rapidly open the blade.

The force to open the blade is provided by an 'Optimiser', which is a removeable spring bar. The knife may be converted into a normal 'un-assisted' liner-lock by removing the 'Optimiser'

Nite Ize LED & Tail Cap Upgrade for MagLite AA Torch is a 3-LED replacement for the Maglite xenon bulb. The LED's have a longer lifespan, use less power and are shock-resistant compared to the conventional bulb. This is installed by unscrewing the head of the torch and replacing the existing bulb and reflector. The LED replacement has a fixed flood beam, unlike the focusable original bulb and reflector.

The Nite Ize tailcap is a push button on / off switch which replaces the orignal tailcap in Maglite AA torches. It is not compatible with newer, Mag-LED torches. The tailcap switch is first activated by rotating the torch head to the on position.
