they got a '''saying''' in Jamaica,
which is attributed to the former PrimeMinister PJ Patterson:::>>> ''''... the law IS NOT a shackle..'''
..........which could 'apply' to pocket knives, and a HOST of other Ja-laws.

So while you can certainly bring them in your checked luggage, it does appear that they cannot legally be carried on your person in Jamaica.
My friends who drive, like me to bring them "Super Shammies" and quick detailing spray from Walmart. They love their cars and with it raining all them time in JA, it makes the perfect gift...You'll get a big thank you from them for sure...
LOL mr. smith you know you can't carry a rachet knife . Big difference between a switch blade and a swiss army knife . you can cary a pocket knife . safe with blade less than 3 inches . It is called the offensive weapons act for a reason .
Ah, you remember Smith's rachet incident. We've been wondering when that story would come out.... (grin)Quote:

Just to clarify, 3" or less is good to go for a folding knife? I always have one on me and haven't given much thought to what passes and what does not. I have seen my fair share of machetes, and never imagined that Jamaica had a law on carrying knives.
i ALWAYS BRING 6 MULTI TOOL KNIVES WITH ME TO GIVE AWAY TO INDIVIDUALS WHO II SEE COULD BE OF GOOD USE TO THEM...THEY LOVE THEM..THAT ALONG WITH 50 9LED FLASHLIGHTS EACH YEAR.
