Anyone in Canada know how the law/LE views carrying this type of blade? (openly, or if an untucked shirt or jacket were covering it).

AnthonyDRI was told that it is the officer’s discretion with fixed blades. Much depends on usage. An officer told me that they don’t like the ‘ring’ mostly because they associate the ring (wrongly) with ‘brass knuckles’, though you could punch with it... There is no such thing as carrying for ‘self-defence’ in Canada. ”Self-defensive” carry equates to ‘looking for trouble’ in the eyes of The Law. Do your best to convince them you have a valid use for this as a tool. Maybe you were cutting a lot of cardboard at work and the ring keeps your hand from slipping...? Best not to carry, especially concealed, and just collect it. On the other hand, in NS you are required to have tools for survival when in the wilderness and this is a license to carry whatever you feel is necessary in the woods. Ironically, (and stated a little differently) you have a DUTY to carry a knife when in the wilderness (just NOT concealed on your person). See, there are reasonable laws in Canada! I was carrying a rather large sheathed knife on my belt in the woods and when I was asked about it, I said something along the lines of, “Isn’t it my duty to carry tools for survival?” To which he replied, “Yes, that is correct...” (Why do police try to rattle us like that?) Always remember that a knife is foremost a tool. Cheers, Brother.
