So what employment would justify carrying a knife? Also if someone was stopped and said he was employed in such a field that required or better yet allowed for carrying a knife how would the officer check it out?

I work in construction. I started in the field and moved my way into the office but I still carry a knife every day as it has become habit. Here there are no problems with it. Once I alsmot walked into court with it, the metal detector cought it and they held it at the security desk for me until I was on my way out.

I am asking as I do go out of town sometimes and wouldn't want to let my habit get me in trouble in another state.
