FYI as I am a licenced security officer, technically I am breaking the law by carrying a combination Swiss Army Knife and a Leatherman Supertool (15 years and still going strong) as these are classified as offensive weapons but have never had any issues with the police as I am not using these items to inflict any harm against another person and they are tools of trade.
In NSW a knife blade cannot be any longer than 1.5 inches long before it is considered a prohibited item (used to be 2.5 inches to cover pen knifes, etc) but if for example you worked at say Costco and had a box cutter then you had a valid reason but you cannot carry a Rambo knife to cut your steak with.
Just curious as to what items beyond tasers, Barret .50 cals and RPG's are considered illegal for S/O's to carry whilst on duty ?
