Hey all,
I know here in Florida assisted opening knives are ok, and so are automatic OTF knives (I think you need a CWP to carry one though? - could be wrong)
Anyways,
so far all my knives are folders, with one assisted-opening Buck Rush.
I am looking to get some more knives, probably Benchmade as I like my Griptillian.
I found a knife I like, the automatic opening Presidio by Benchmade. I also LOVE the Microtech Halo, but it's a "bit" out of my price range
My only question though is, if I have any plans of not ultimately living in Florida, should I avoid getting anything "assisted-opening" or "automatic" (especially OTF)?
I'd hate to get some great knives, but then when I move (which will probably be in 1 year - where I haven't a clue yet - depends on some things) - have to do some type of emergency moving liquidation sale.
What's the status on knives state-by-state. Where are assisted-opening or automatic knives not allowed, as well as where are OTF knives not allowed?
I know from the Benchmade catalog, Oregon doesn't allow concealed carry of an assisted-opening or automatic knife... where else?
Would I be wise to just stick to manual opening?
