As said it depends on the length but more so, on your perceived intentions to a cop. Do you have form (a record) for instance? Where are you stopped at, doing what, at what time? If it's just a Swiss Army knife that people ordinarily carry with no criminal intent, then it should be ok.

Good question, Darryl S. Hi Ascended,

The law usually specifies the length of the blade which varies from place to place.
