Knife laws in spain

[sbl212]

Can you carry a knife in Spain?
If so what are the limitations?

Thanks

No switchblades, no automatic knives, no cane knives, and no daggers, even tiny ones. Anything spearpoint with two sharp edges would be considered a dagger. Intent and purpose are the general considerations if found carrying (a football stadium during a match would not be a good place, for example), and tourists get more leeway due to having a "legitimate" reason. Spain is not a big problem. If you travel to France, Germany, Italy, or some Eastern European countries you could have it confiscated, but would not generally get into trouble. My 2 cents.
