Hey Everyone / Anyone,

I got a CRKT Carson M16 knife from my Dad for Christmas. The blade is under 4" long, but it is a tactical type folding knife and looks pretty menacing to the average person.

My question quite simply is can I carry it clipped to my jeans in Waukesha Co.? I have an everyday box-opening short blade folding knife so this isn't something I necessarily need to carry, just wondering if it is an issue and if I should just keep it in my safe.

Thanks.

Here's a discussion from another forum. Best to ask your LEO if you think you'll encounter a problem.

I have the same knife. Excellent choice!!! I have carried mine daily for 2 years..never had a problem. Even had to pull it out for cops a few times...never got yelled at. One was in waukesha also....but who knows.
