Legality of bladed weapons
I was thinking of posting this in Tilted Weaponry, but figured it might be more appropriate here.....if not, then someone please move it.
So....Does anyone know why certain kinds of knives (I'm thinking of switchblades and butterfly knives) are illegal in certain places, while other knives are not? Think about it....I can walk into a hunting goods store or an army/navy surplus store almost anywhere and get a hunting knife, and if not that, then I can buy a meat cleaver or even a set of steak knives. Such knives are as deadly, if not more so, than a switchblade or butterfly knife, yet certain places have put restrictions on these types of knives simply because of how the blade is stored.
Besides me, is there someone else out there that thinks this is a little absurd? Why not make all knives legal?
