ok, im all for keeping us, the population safe but trying to redefine all pocketknives as "switchblades"?  wtf?

and yes, i realize this site is pretty conservative based but this is still kinda fucking weird.

thats pretty shitty

but when it comes down to it, it could lead to less knife violence tbh
and to people who are all angry about not being able to use spring assisted knives, if they arent using it for something dangerous, they should be able to switch to a regular folding knife pretty easily

idk, it might help for gang violence, then again, might not at all

well, i can understand the spring assisted/butterfly knife thing (even though i own one of each) but what i dont get is regular folding knives...  the why is the biggest one, so many people i know carry them because they use them at work on construction or other things of that nature...

Exactly. I have a great Gerber blade that I love. It only takes one hand to open and close. To classify that into a category of it being illegal for me to carry is just stupid. I honestly have no idea what the person who came up with this idea was thinking. Millions of people carry knives simply to use them for their intended purpose. Don't punish the majority for the minority's mistakes.

That'd be like them banning Mag-lites because you can bash someone's head in with it.

if you get the kind with a bamboo handle and sheath so that it just looks like a stick, nobody's going to give a fuck. it's hard to find really good ones that are made that way though.
