I've been stop searched with a blade about an inch long on a key ring before though and the police were a bit awkward about it. You would probably still get a bit of hassle if you carried a Swiss army knife though.
To answer your q I don't collect knives though.

I thought though if you could relate it to your job you are fine. Like you could work at a supermarket and say you needed it for work. Maybe they dont care? It amazes me the people let the government take the right to carry knives. I mean who the **** who is going to commit a crime with a knife is deterred because of that stupid law.
