I'm going to be spending some time in Las Vegas and thought it would be prudent to brush up on the knife laws that apply, not only in Nevada, but also if there are any that apply specifically to the Las Vegas municipality.
My research has produced more questions than it has answered.
First question:
It looks like nothing with a blade longer than 2" is legal if it is concealed. I don't think I own a knife with a blade under 2" in length!
Is that an accurate read of the law?
Next question:
I couldn't find a length limit for openly worn knives. Is that correct?
Next question (It's a two-parter, but we're winding down, so stay with me!):
Is there a legal definition of "concealed"? Is a knife in the pocket with the pocket clip and upper part of the knife showing concealed?
Last question:
I couldn't find anything on Las Vegas. Do they have special knife laws beyond the Nevada statutes?
