Is it ok to carry a Pocket Knife

DaveLynn

I am a custom to carry a small multi-purpose pocket knife on me here at home in the USA and was woundering if it was ok to do the same in KSA? It is a Leatherman Micro with a 1 inch blade, scissers, nail file, screwdrivers, can opener, bottel opener. Is it possable to carry it in my lugage when flying also or should I leave it back home?

Pack it in your check-in luggage, not the carry-on bags, and you'll be OK.

I got in deep trouble cuz they found my 4 inch foldable smithnwesson on me....but an inch leather man shouldn't be a problem for walking around out here. While traveling, yes, check in anything that has a sharp edge!
