Are you saying you cannot carry a knife of any sort in Australia? (Question directed at "in town/city"...I assume you can carry a knife in the bush.)
BTW: Your custom WH is really a beautiful knife. Very.
Your set is similar in shape to the typical Hmong knives of Vietnam, Laos, etc tho those normally have no guard. I wrote a piece for Gun Digest Books KNIVES Annual a few years ago on them. Forged a couple of the type and did a writeup.
Maybe you have seen already but youtube had a ton of really fascinating hunting videos coming out of Laos of locals hunting deer, pig and small game. LOTS of Hmong knife action and their guns used are quite interesting as well: a very interesting muzzleloader shows up in addition to LOTS of SKS's, AK's and...US M1 Carbines.
In Queensland you are not allowed a knife in a public place without reasonable excuse. I think it is the same or very similar in other States. So a pocket knife should be no trouble as most people will not see it and easy to justify. A knife worn on the belt is harder to justify and way easier to see so more likely to have people complain. We are a society of bed wetter's.
