I've a friend who's recently into swords - I thought "the decorative kind (no honed edge)".
He recently brought a couple he'd bought on-line to show me. They each seemed to be a good looking item with various decor. But they had sharp cutting edges.
That sharpness got me wondering - we have such a mess of "law" regarding guns (and their transport, among other things) - if he were seen along the byway with these items would he have legal problems?
I guess the question really is "Are swords (etc.) a controlled subject like guns are?" If so, then I suppose 50 states would have 50 versions of "control", huh?
Do states with concealed weapons permits (not CCH) include swords and their ilk under their permits?
I guess this is called "Enquiring minds want to know."
Thanks.
