Well i'm going to Cyprus in the holidays and was wondering what the EDC laws are like. I'm thinking of just taking a Torch a SAK classic and a few bits and bobs.

You should be fine with a SAK and flashlight. I was there two years ago, (Athens and Ios). I brought my One Handed Trekker SAK and Photon Proton along with some other EDC essentials. My father in-law is from Greece and said I should have no issue with a folding knife. I always find it safest to travel with a SAK or Opinel. If I am really worried about the laws I will bring a non-locking SAK. Enjoy the trip, Greece is a wonderful country. We try to go every other year. Unfortunately we cannot make it this summer.

Have a great time in Cyprus, I spent a good while out there not so long ago when my gal was working out there (Shes in Mallorca THIS Summer, works for Thomson Holidays).
The Troodos Mountains are great, the snorkelling/SCUBA is fabulous too. I was taught to SCUBA dive by a guy who I later learned was the head of the Cypriot Mafia when I first went out there about 10 years ago!!! (But, its probably best not to say any more on that subject! ;D)
