That's this ceremonial dagger that all their men are supposed to carry at all times. The Supreme Court here has held they are allowed to wear them to school. I'm not sure if they would allow a Catholic boy to carry a Knight's of Columbus sword to school.[/quote]

Fortunately for us 4th Degree Knights, we aren't required to carry our swords at all times. I like them a lot, but they can get in the way sometimes. :lol:
