Sorry Folks...
I have searched through the threads on this site but am still struggling...I always take a fixed blade knife out and about when in the countryside. Im 40 and inoffensive looking (I hope). However my job depends on enhanced CRBs and due to media attention Im getting increasingly paranoid about the law... I sit around light fires ( Im fairly up on where to light and whats regulation and safe) and do the usual stuff, this is not usually on private land, if I was stopped by the police what excuse regarding the knife can I give. How would I justify its use...I often cycle or Walk to these places and end up walking through small towns villages most often in Derbyshire...I note a few threads mention shining cliff woods a favourite of mine...Is my paranoia of ruining a clean CRB justified any suggestions on what or what not to say... some helpful advice PLEASE
