Legal Issue of Knife Care?

January 21st, 2010

If a minor in California takes a assisted-opening pocket knife, with a blade length over two inches, to a blade smith/blacksmith and asks him/her to sharpen the knife, is it illegal? The law says that it is illegal to carry a pocket knife over two inches if it is open or in any way that makes it easier to take out and attack. BUT, if it was closed, then it’s legal. So, could a minor take the pocket knife and get it sharpened by a professional?

I just bought a 3” out the front assisted open knife. i want to know if its legal in ohio? cop please answer?

its a Smith&Wesson H.R.T out the front tonto blade its not a switch its assisted open. please help me? It wont even open through a peace of paper because the spring isn’t strong enough. but the blade is sharp as a razer.

Why is an assisted open knife legal but switchblades are not?
