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.

In California, folders of any length can be concealed. Fixed blades must be carried openly. |
