No I don't need a large knife, but I don't want a 2in knife either. I'm pretty sure I don't want anything more than ~4.5in.

No lol, it's just that the battery in my watch died and I spend a week looking for my knife. No luck.

Oh I can understand that, I generally carry either the Kershaw Blur;


or Spyderco Tenacious:


I don't really have a use for serrations and just having a full blade.  A lot of people find these to be bigger knives, but I find they're just right for most jobs.  On occasion, the job might require a smaller more fine pointed knife, but rarely do I need a larger one.

Yeah all I want is a full blade, both knifes that you showed look just fine.

My primary concern is if $h1t hits the fan I'm not going to get in any legal trouble because of the knife. (just a precaution)

I've been carrying that Kershaw a lot lately because it has assisted opening, which I love.

That Spyderco only costs about $30 and is an incredible knife for the money.  I don't like to spend a lot of money on my pocket knives because I'm going to work the hell out of them. 

Those are just two brands, there are literally hundreds of pocket knife designs out there.  Unless you accidentally purchase a foldable sword, I don't think you'll run into any legal problems with what pocket knife you buy.

I am by no means a lawyer, but it looks like New Jersey law reads very similar to Kansas law with regard to pocket knives.  I believe the spring assisted is legal because it doesn't meet the requirements of an automatic knife.

This ordinance must be outdated since it is now legal to carry a concealed weapon, unless the new law only pertains to firearms.



Can't speak for AZ, but in TX they did not change any of the existing laws concerning carrying a firearm, rather they added exceptions for Concealed carry, so all existing laws still apply.....just not to CHL holders.

In Arizona, you no longer need a permit to carry concealed, I'm not sure exactly how the law is written.

I'm wondering if the legal definition of weapon is only a firearm.
