    Headed to Disney in a month and would like to carry a small non-tactical looking folder with me. The mini grip looks perfect. I'd prefer it to be the sheepsfoot and spydie hole blade. My fingers dont always do well with thumb studs...the more used the better. Money is tight so looking to trade

    My family is at Disneyland 2-3 weekends a month (local SoCal family) and Disney World 1-2 times a year. Security at all Disney sites has skyrocketed with metal detectors (both booths and hand wands used) as well as all guests subject to bag checks and pat downs. Think TSA Jr. but with a Disney-sized budget...

    You might get something through with a hint of creativity but don’t show once in the park or you’re likely to end up escorted out of the park best case, or in an actual holding cell in “Disney Jail” (it exists, don’t ask me how I know) worst case as Anaheim’s/Orlando’s finest descend to protect their Golden Geese.

    For real, go a non-metallic option (carbon fiber, glassfilled nylon, etc.) if it’s essential to you.

    I just spent a week at Disney World in July of 2017. They advertise a zero tolerance policy regarding knives and other weapons...but they adhere to local/state laws. The police at the checkpoints have little cards to measure blade length (under 3" is ok). Of the 5 days we spent at the parks I was only selected for going through the metal detector gate twice. The only thing mentioned at all about my swiss army knife was when the officer asked what tool I used the most on it (to which I replied the scissors and tweezers). I spent some time there talking to local LEOs and Disney Security (whom were retired military and intelligence officers). They really have the security down at that place....well before and after the checkpoints...They have plain clothes ex govt and military ppl as well as profilers all over the place. A little pocket knife doesnt bother them. They have much bigger things to watch for

    @OutdoorsFamilyMan I hope you find one! I have a mini grip but you'd have to pry it from my cold dead hands. Great little edc knives. I'm partial to the D2 steel version.
