During my tours to the sandtrap , we could take anything we could bring. I was a professional knives to goto guy. As long as you bring it with you , your okay. Through our elite mail system , I've lost 3 Busse's , 2 Rats, 1Strider ,and a Trident. My TOPS knives were the choice for mailing(in case of loss) , but you could always pick up a good blade at a card game.
