Depends on a lot of things really.

First: How many police were there? If there is only one, examine carefully if the police is a stickler for rules or not, and if not try bribing him

Second: Ask yourself if you have left any fingerprints in the knife. If you are sure there aren't any. Feign innocence. It's your word against theirs.

Third: Again, how many police were there? Were you somehow caught by a CCTV camera? If not, feign that the police planted it all up. Again, It's your word against theirs.

Of course I highly discourage even trying this three and just simply apologize and own up to your mistakes.

You're not.

You're going to apologise and show some humbleness and humility for carrying an illegal knife.

Take responsibility for your own actions, accept the punishment and move on with life, trying your hardest not to make the same mistake again!!

My action will be depending on the situation

If I was caught and the

  • Kabar Knife was Mine

If I was really caught possessing the knife I first talk with the policemen. I will first make them understand the reason behind me carrying the knife (Of course I will surely have a reason for carrying one)

I will said that I was carrying knife just in case something endangers my life. In the Philippines crimes was very prone, we can experience act of thief, stealing and fraud even in broad daylight.

I am sure they will understand my reason for carrying one, I will make amends to them and will promise to not carry the knife again. I will also hand them the knife if it was necessary

  • Kabar Knife was only Planted on Me

If the knife was planted on me and someone wants so blackmail me (like it was seen inside my car) I will deny it. Also I will make sure not to touch the knife to avoid having my fingerprint onto the knife.

But if a report was necessary, like I need to go in the police station I will come with them. and I will stick to myself that I was innocent

Laws differ from country to country. What's illegal in one country might be no problem in another.
