<p>A prior poster asked about multi-tools and whether colleges were as concerned about weapons as high schools. Check the Residence rules. The schools I am familiar with do restrict knives to 4". This of course seems quite silly since they also provide kitchens and cooking with a 4" knife is a form of cruel and inhumane torture. I expect my D will take her 10" chef’s knife with her anyway. She might have to leave her sword home though.</p>
