Recently, my significant other announced her plan to drag me to New York City at the end of July for a week to celebrate my birthday and show me some sites she was fond of when growing up in Brooklyn. I know my CCW for North Carolina won't be worth jack there, but I'm curious if I can at least carry my knife in "The City That Never Sleeps", legally anyway.
As I have for nearly a decade, I carry a Benchmade Stryker with a 3.7" blade.
I have recently retired my first Stryker for use around the house while my new Stryker (with slightly repositioned thumb disk and D2 steel).
As the first, my Stryker is not spring assisted. Despite this, I can flick the blade open every bit as fast as any spring-assisted blade, just without the compexities and additional parts. However, is this knife legal for carry in NYC? I plan to carry it as I always do, IWB with the pocket-clip concealed under my belt.
I do recall some criterion concerning blade length and the legality of concealed knives in NYC from some literature I read a while back, but a google search isn't helping me any.
Thanks in advance!
