Victoria Police is that they're generally fairly reasonable, so I'd
sort of figure that if I stuck to the UK rules (even though this is
Australia and not the UK) I'd be OK. And, yes, I do know enough
that, if queried, I wouldn't say, "But it's legal in the UK."

After reading the full list - I would be inclined to agree with that interpretation:

"Dagger
A sharp pointed stabbing instrument (other than an oyster knife), ordinarily capable of being concealed on the person and having:
(a) a flat blade with cutting edges (whether serrated or not serrated) along the length of both sides; or
(b) a needle-like blade, the cross section of which is elliptical or has three or more sides. This does not include instruments such as swords or bayonets"

so my current design with one sharp side should be perfectly acceptable.
