Buy a small spiderco clipit (say 2-1/2 inches?). Will cut whatever you want, and is never going to be considered "illegal" except in extreme cases (IE a courtroom, an airport, etc) If you want something bigger, laws vary by state. Where I'm from, the restriction is on CONCEALED knives... most people keep thier folder in thier pocket, and so it's considered concealed. Thus, most places you can carry a machete on your belt (technically, at least) but a spidie Police edition (4 1/4") is gonna get you in trouble if it's in your pocket. Also, keep in mind that there are seperate laws for each state, each county in that state, and each township in that county. Many towns have a knife ordanance.
The length of a knife has little effect on the capability of its edge.
