I find if you are about to be searched carrying any knifes etc.. it's worth being up front. I normally say something like "be careful in that pannier because it contains my cooking knife" or whatever. Often I get OK thanks for letting me know. Never had any issue even carrying a full size chefs knife.
Knives which look like the sort you see on horror-killer-stabbing-murder-movies may well cause a sharp intake of breath and raised eyebrows with even the most friendly border guards.
