Reply to comment by willowbeest in Police look for man who was wielding swords at the U-Mall. Calls off hunt after he informed them he bought them at U-Mall. by flipz444

If you ask a criminal lawyer, like I did out of curiosity, then they may violate the blade laws in your area if the sharpened edge is longer than, or in violation of what the law allows.

But typically nothing will happen unless someone is wielding it as a weapon menacingly or just being incredibly stupid with it, or if people are in fear of their well-being or safety.

My specific question i asked was if I could wear a full set of medieval knight armor and sword to work on casual friday. Could i take public transportation.

Fascinating! Thanks for the insight. Hopefully the store in the mall isn't selling illegally-long sharpened-edge items!

_Could_ you wear your full armor on public transportation? Now I'm curious!

Yes, but they can refuse you service for concerns about the safety of other passengers.
