is it illegal to carry a toy knife...?

Question

will you get in trouble for concelment of a cutting instrument ..yes plastic can cut so can paper...

Answer 1

No, it's not illegal. Like Eric said, just don't brandish it in public.

If someone sees it and calls the police, they may question you about it. Don't pull it out on them or anything; if the officers feel threatened, they can use force.

Not a good idea to do though if you don't have to do it.

Answer 2

Yes - even though it is a toy, it can be used to simulate a weapon, and carried concealed is a felony.

The court would look at the intent of the person carrying.

But a person you were threatening with it, may bring out a gun or a real knife and your intent would be a moot point.

Answer 3

Not around here, unless you brandish it. Worse than getting a cite or booked, you run the risk of running across a guy with a real knife.

I'm sure you've heard the old saying;
Don't bring a knife to a gun fight.

I say to you;
Don't bring a fake knife a knife fight.

Have fun.

Answer 4

Sure, its called Carrying a concealed weapon if its real. However, dont go flashing that in front a police officer, s/he might percieve it to be real and if you make any furtive movements with it, you might be in for some pain.
Why would you want to do it anyway, it really serves to useful purpose, does it?

Answer 5

That would depend entirely on where you are at, what you plan on doing with a toy knife, and if you actually used it to cut someone/something.

Answer 6

If you were a police officer and saw some one playing aroud pretending to stab some one whats your responce?

Answer 7

depends on the intention you can walk into a shop and easily rob it

Answer 8

No- not too wise,either.
