If im reading this right, Kansas can carry auto knives

[dee]

Just the ability to have a choice in personal defense weapons, kind of a list of "how bad I am going to mess you up if you try to jack with me" list.

Sounds like too much bullshit to worry about carrying. If shit is that bad their getting hit with 185gr of lead not a stick that I have to be in even closer to use.

In May they passed a law that said switch blades will no longer be illegal/prohibited weapons. Perry signed it in June. Goes into effect September 1.

Hb 1862 I believe.

Thanks.

I wonder what prompted the change? Maybe we can get bowie knives off the list as well.

My daily carry knife:



Slim enough to fit in my back pocket and not be uncomfortable. Only thing I don't like about it is that it's not a liner lock.

Liner locks aren't what you want, dude. They wear out too fast, and when they fail, you run the risk of needing to grow new fingers.

Ive decided on the benchmade 5000 presidio. Now I just gotta save my pennies.

Ill agree with the liner locks, My s30v kershaw blur is a liner lock and it scared the crap out of me, so its only used for simple tasks.

I guess I know what my next knife will be, bring on the auto benchmade.


For those who are curious to read the changes

Found a problem. I can only buy from retailers in state unless leo/military due to federal transportation laws or some shit.

Found a kick arse price on the knife i want, now i cant get it. Stupid laws and shit.

Got one of these on the way. I wanted the black coated blade, but they discontinued it, and no dealer in the state has one.

Very nice! Love the Benchmades. I'm thinking about ordering a Microtech Ultratech OTF pretty soon. They are just damn sexy and get great reviews from what I've seen.

[Cooter]

Be glad you didn't get the black blade. It would look like shit in no time!

Microtechs are nice, but the actuation it VERY heavy! I prefer my Benchmade OTF. it's like butter! But I don't dare carry it as it's double edged

[Sleeper]

Im just about to click on a custom griptillian as well. I should be set on blades for a while, But that bushcrafter that benchmade/lonewolf has is tits as well.

I had a Microtech Kestrel and was not a fan, opened it a few times then sold it. I like my manual flippers, I just bought a Chris Reeve Sebenza 25 and it is by far the best blade I own.

My personal favorite is my kershaw ram flipper.
