it;s not against the law because that would be discriminatory. I don't think you can carry the skean dubh onto aeroplanes etc, but you can legally wear it with your full highland dress.
And if you want the statute, for 'chapter and verse' I've given the relevant law in answer to your post under 'criminal' :)
Same applies to Sikh daggers, i believe.
