speedsafe legality thread

Since your in Cali probably not. Seems like everything is illegal or has restrictions in Cali.

Speedsafe is actually legal in California.

You have to be kidding me!

I was supprised too.
Anyways my friend has that knife. Im not the biggest fan of it. The handle is kinda... eh. Toyish. And i dont even like the speedsafe function. I think its kinda just a novelty function.
Id go for a Gerber AR 3.25 over this myself. It'll be about $10 cheaper too and they should have it at walmart.

The handle is a little cheap feeling on the blackout.

Kershaw makes nicer SpeedSafe models, but they get expensive fast!

I have one and it's the knife I carry everyday. handle does feel alittle cheap but it gets the job done. I had the torsion bar break in mine. I sent it to Kershaw with a letter and they sent me a new one.
