Bringing in Camping Gear

Will immigration get suspicious or deny me entry if I bring in camping gear like a tent, knife, and sleeping bag as tourist? I plan on doing some camping during the trip at camp grounds and designated camp spots. Has anyone tried this before?

I doubt very much if they will care as long as you have a hotel address for the first night. this is probably more common than you think. Of course as has already been said you would have to pack the knife.

Your own real problems may be if you gear has some soil/dirt on it and it's actually checked (quite rare). For your knife, just make sure it's put into checked baggage and others might know more about types of knives which may be illegal in Japan. I'm guessing these would be more like knives used most likely to stab someone....
