It's here….
So, now we do....I'm not sure if the is an everyday carry (edc) thread on IH UK else I'd have posted there instead
Obbi Good Label wallet, Fisher space pen, Wright & Sons pockets knife, Hamilton field watch, and IH skull key hook -
Typical carry, guess that's what makes it an EDC. Not pictured / pictured by Pixel 2. Still using a wallet @Hemi gave me with a world tour transfer a few years ago and I love it. I store it in a coozie cos you never know when you'll encounter a cold beer.

Hi Guys it’s been a while!
I’m wondering if anyone can help me out here, so I have a small pocket knife collection going on and really want to add this one to it.https://www.riversandrocks.com/rick-hinderer-xm-24-spearpoint-vintage-series-smooth.html
I ordered it from Germany today and know it wouldn’t be a knife you could legally carry and I don’t intend to, it will be for my collection box only but since ordering a friend mentioned I should check out wether it’s even ok to order and own this in the UK and I can’t seem to really find anything definitive on the subject.
I know the item has not been shipped just yet and am positive I can cancel the order in time tomorrow morning before it gets shipped if needs be.
Anyone who could help shed some light on this for me?
Thanks in advance all [emoji120]

Love this Dyneema wallet. If you don't like carrying a wallet this thing is perfect. Works in shirt pockets too.
Also love this ZT 0450 Sinkevich flipper. It also has minimal pocket presence but is built like a tank.
The Prometheus keychain flashlight is also recommended. Detaches and clips back in to the keyring easily.

I assume you checked this:
https://www.gov.uk/buying-carrying-knives
There is a difference between what you can carry and what you can buy/sell.
The list of knife types you cannot buy is on the linked page. First glance suggests your desired knife is not a problem to buy but as you say will be illegal to carry. I’m not an expert though, so have a good look.
-
I’ve had a closer look. I can’t see that the knife you’re buying qualifies as something on the banned list. The length of the blade and the flick mechanism means you can’t carry it, but buying it, or indeed selling it to someone over 18 is legal.
The page does recommend that you ring to a police station if you’re unsure [emoji1]
I’m pretty sure @Cutlasshound will be able to answer this definitively.

Great stuff! I was going to ring and check today just to be sure!
As you say I was confident in it not being on the list before purchasing as it doesn’t seem to match any of the banned criteria.
I then read afterwards on another forum that it’s down to customs to decide wether the “flipper” mechanism may be classed as illegal for some reason. This then got me worried as I’d read the government guide lines and it seemed ok. As I say the law is pretty vague it seems and hard to find real answers.

The law is clearly designed to discourage this kind of purchase, and if customs do indeed have the final say then I’m sure they will be difficult out of principle [emoji6]
This peaked my interest so I’ve read a little more. My understanding is that flippers can be considered as switchblades or automatic knives as opposed to being a folding knife. If the button retracts the blade or releases it in a certain way then customs don’t like it. If you’re in their hands then you are taking a risk in my opinion.

Anything non-locking with a blade length less than 3 inches you can carry at your discretion.
I would steer clear of anything else, unless you have good reason to carry (i.e work). Otherwise just not worth the risk.
I have a UK legal hinderer. Check out Heinnie.com
