I went Rome this time last year, but Im not Amritdhari (although look like one...massive beard and dastaar) so dont have a kirpan. But never had any security checks. I went to the vatican, had an auidence with the pope, had a tour of the city, no problems. If anything you get noticed more, The pope kept smiling at me and the vast majority of people knew I was a sikh, when I went in shops they would let me know where the nearest Gurdwara was.

Visted all the monuments, historical sites and parks in Rome. No problem once again. No physical search or anything, so if you conceal kirpan well, shouldnt be an issue.

But Rome is a religious city, there's nuns and monks with their garbs and mala everywhere... so I dont know what the rest of Italy is like.
