I bought the rambo knife on ebay but ebay dont sell thsoe anymore.

I bought this bad boy from amazon, arrived yesterday.

Having a little problem with nuisance neighbours.

Just kidding, bought it to take care of a load of junk in the back yard of the house I'm getting.

Think it might be a little too big for the OP's needs though

What about a gun? You never bring a knife to a gunfight!

Guns for show, knives for a pro.

Anyways, its mostly for opening cardboard boxes at work.

If my boss lets me do that with a gun then sure, spec me a gun.

Death? I doubt it.

Losing a finger or two? Quite possible.

What is the legal position about carrying knives in Britain? Is it a blanket ban on all knives or are some allowed?

I think you're limited to a blade of 3" or less in length and it should be non-locking unless you have a good reason for it. I imagine if stopped and questioned you'd have to provide a sensible reason for having the knife on your person in the first place.

Meh, not really worth my effort then. What real harm is a person going to do with a 3" blade that they couldn't do with a brick or a bottle?

I'd like to see you open a box at my work with a brick.

Hahaha. You know what I mean though.

Just to think in America in some states you can carry pistols around with you, and we are quibbling about 3" blades lol

It'll be the same as is the case with the gun laws here, though. Which is frustrating, but hey, what can you do?
