Importing Knives - Just A Quick One


Nackers

Recommended Posts

G'day again,

Just got a quick question about importing knives into Australia.

I am currently looking at a cheap Victorinox Sentinel One Hand and wondering if it will get through customs.

I know there are restrictions on flick knives, etc but don't know where they draw the line at lock blade folding knives, especially ones which can be opened one hand. Also, the knife cannot be 'flicked' open and is the practically the same as any other swiss army knife except it is a fixed blade with the 'one hand' opening system.

If it is no good, I might have to go with the normal Victorinox Sentinel.

Cheers.

from memory the law states knives that can be opened easily with one hand, not just flick knives, not 100% certain though

Righto, thanks for that mate.

Will stick with the normal folder.

Maybe just send a link like you have done here to the customs mob and see what they say, but I reckon because you can open it one handed they may have a whinge, who knows worth asking the question if you want it, explain to them you are a hunter maybe that will help who knows.

Good luck
