| Jun 30, 2016 at 17:41 | comment | added | Niall | Although I don't know specifically if a chainsaw falls under those kind of laws, it's normally that you're not allowed to carry those items without a good reason. Eg. It's allowed to carry a long fixed-blade knife if you're a chef on your way to work. What I'm wondering is if it's allowed for you to actually use the saw on pubic land. | |
