    With the present state of fear and mistrust in the world today, probably not be a good idea. But now we bring into the account of tradition, and what all that entails. Two sides of the coin, that both have merit.

    I would probably wear one, but with this in mind, take one that you would not be upset if you do not ever see it again, especially if you have to surrender it, you still have shown the tradition.

    Just my thoughts.

    You know what, I was thinking of making one with no sharp edge and rounded on the tip like a re-enactment weapon but I've heard horror stories of people being taken to court even for that, then to have it thrown out of court.
    I asked the missus and she reckons you wouldn't go armed to a funeral so this occasion who knows.

    Actually, considering the event, there is likely to be many others dressed similarly and you will just be one of many. The police will likely ignore you since they have more important things on their minds.
