I'm after a Police, Paramilitary, a UKPK and another Millie with 1/2 serrated edge before anything else.

r.ocelot Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) yeah I meant the Waki. You know it comes in multiple different finishes + grips right?

davedawg123 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 California laws seems a little confusing and conflicting but could someone clarify the legality of carrying switchblades and blade length? My understanding is that they are allowed to be carried so long as the blade length (tip to handle?) is 2" or less. Running outdoors got a lot more interesting lately when I was chased down the street by a dog and I rather not put my faith simply in pepper spray. Right now, I do have a switchblade that barely exceeds 2" and I obviously need to replace it for carry if it is illegal. And not that I have a preference but can I carry an auto?

UMGuy Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 (edited) http://zknives.com/knives/articles/law/caknifelaws.shtml  Looks like any spring assisted are illegal, but folding are ok. Edited February 19, 2010 by UMGuy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davedawg123 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 (edited) Yeah, confusing since some retailers show videos of their CA legal blades which look spring assisted. Edited February 19, 2010 by davedawg123 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sinner101GR Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 you probably shouldnt hold your weapon and knife like that...ever.

AliceHKfan Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 http://zknives.com/knives/articles/law/caknifelaws.shtml Looks like any spring assisted are illegal, but folding are ok.   you should've read more, you'd find out that spring assisted are okay if about 2" and proper mech.  For the purposes of this section, "switchblade knife" means a knife having the appearance of a pocketknife and includes a spring-blade knife, snap-blade knife, gravity knife or any other similar type knife, the blade or blades of which are two or more inches in length and which can be released automatically by a flick of a button, pressure on the handle, flip of the wrist or other mechanical device, or is released by the weight of the blade or by any type of mechanism whatsoever. "Switchblade knife" does not include a knife that opens with one hand utilizing thumb pressure applied solely to the blade of the knife or a thumb stud attached to the blade, provided that the knife has a detent or other mechanism that provides resistance that must be overcome in opening the blade, or that biases the blade back toward its closed position.   therefore there are CA legal auto knives, iirc Microtech made one (I think an Ultratech) for a while and apparently Kershaw Chive series are okay Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And I choose the MOD because I already had a few CRKT's that I loved and me and Benchmade never got along (every knife they've ever made just is... meh looking to me) and I love the way the MOD I looks.

RC-1138 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 (edited) CQC Level 2 qual? What?  It's an Army thing. Close Quarter's Combat Certified Level II, it's the Army's hand-to-hand combat training. All troops take level one in basic, and officers generally are expect to take Level 2 and level 3 is invitation only based on you're unit, although West Pointer's do get to go on occasion. Level 2 has a whole week of Knife combat though that's really interesting.  It's kinda like the Marine Hand-to-Hand only we don't hand out special colored belts lol.

You're talking about MMA style stuff. I was not aware they used weapons, at least I know they did not focus on it. Even still, the focus is to deflect and disarm, not "know how to use a knife."

Â It went out one day, I just need to take it in and have it repaired. The benchmade factory isn't that far from me, so I can just drop it off. It still works fine as a normal knife thou.
