This information is for entertainment purposes only and I am not in any way, shape, or form advising you on what to carry where you live. Let me know if you agree with my findings. The main point of this is to show the absurdity of the laws and how there are contradictions in the law and more importantly, point out that our government has overstepped and found the need to suppress us with unconstitutional laws. Again, my opinion...and not backed up by any sort of law degree. My only advice to you is to not be a jerk when you are stopped by the police. Be respectful and upbeat and you will find that your life goes so much more smoothly. Remember, regardless of how you behave, they will be going home for dinner, you may be having a bologna sandwich, a slice of cheese, and warm milk in the company of a whole new group of friends for the foreseeable future. You feelin' me? Hold onto your soap.
A recent trip to NYC got me thinking about knife laws. Things are always changing and I was surprised by some of the things I found out. It is a really good idea to know your local laws as it can save you some unnecessary headaches if you simply follow the law.

Mr.KS, happy Friday, thanks for an interesting video. I have never been to New York and have no plans to ever go there. New York is an open sewer & needs returning to the Redskins & the beads they got paid refunded! As a lifelong SAK Aficionado it does not surprise me that carrying Swiss Army knives is possibly illegal in NYC, after all it is a well known fact the Swiss Army Toothpick is a banned weapon of war under the Geneva Convention on a par with flame throwers, poison gas, napalm & biological weapons. How did the little Toothpick become a banned weapon of war? That is simple it is made of the same non-recyclable plastic as the plastic drinking straws now outlawed in California!

Are we taking the state of New York or New York City? Not that I’ll ever visit either one, but was in need of some clarity. I was wondering if you could also explain why a Swiss Army knife is illegal in New York ?

@knifetimestory 5 месяцев назад

Did you watch the whole video? Because I say why the Swiss is illegal. The law states that a folding knife is illegal. But switchblades are no longer illegal. Since switchblades are automatic folding knives, the Swiss should be illegal. That is the ambiguity I'm talking about in the video. NYC and Upstate are all one state. However, NYC likes to try and make different laws just for them. But, after the Supreme Court gave them a spanking about their special just for NYC gun laws, I think they understand that knife laws for the state, apply to them as well.

@austinbedell522 5 месяцев назад

As a knife collector here in NYS it's hilarious because they still sell folding knifes and bigger than 4 inch knives at my local Walmart and tractor supply.

Chicago is stricter than NYC. 2 1/2" max blade length, single-edged only, and no autos. It was a trick to assemble, but I have a collection for travel there, now. My options are legal, almost legal, and I'm in big trouble. Always carry in the pocket--always. The classic way to measure is a straight line from the furthermost protrusion of the handle to the tip of the blade. You can squeeze in a bit more cutting edge by going choilless, serrations, recurves, karambits, and sharpened edges that undercut the front of the handle. Carry wisely.

In fact my father faced this six months ago was arrested was immediately released and is now suing the NYPD was offered 1 settlement that has been rejected there is no qualified immunity because Kaitano is well established law.

The only thing I know about a law that sounds sort of like that is if you are carrying a firearm while traveling across the country and are going through a state that illegally makes carrying a gun illegal you are still allowed to travel with it through their state. If you plan on stopping there and taking up residence for any period of time I guess that law changes but if you’re just Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dahing right on through the state, I guess you’re covered by the “in transit“ law.

I’ve carried them in NY many times, have even used the Victorinox Compact ballpoint pen to jot down notes in the open and have never had a problem.

@knifetimestory 4 месяца назад

I would be happy to elaborate. Thank you very much for watching. I think you are confusing my stating the fact that the Swiss Army knife is illegal over the fact that it appears to be illegal according to the New York law that I was reading at the time of making the video. The absurdity of the whole thing is that while the law states folding knives are illegal, it also states that switchblades are legal. and we all know switch blades are automatic folding knives. So there in lies the contradiction. That’s making it confusing for you, me, and any other law abiding citizen and guaranteeing that any ne’er-do-well police officer could give you a hard time. And, I know I will have to go to NYC again this year, where is this store? I would love to visit it and grab myself a true souvenir.

I dont know where you're getting this from. The biggest issue in NYC was always the gravity knife law, which was a state law, and it was amended in 2019. Folders were NEVER illegal. Which is why the safest way to carry there was always something like a slipjoint. The way that NY prosecutors interpreted "gravity knife" was by flicking them out as hard as they can, making all the usual locking knives effectively "gravity knives". I had to fight different felonies over this many years ago.

As a tradesman and native of NYC it ultimately really comes down to intended use. As a teen a knife was more trouble, usually the cops just took it away and let me go with a warning. Since I work in a corporate theatrical setting a knife and a flashlight are my EDC. Once several years the police stopped my in the train to inquire about my foldable pocket knife, they'd seen the clip. Camly I explained as a professional rigger such a knife could save someone's life on site. Also I offered to show them 250 photos of me working with power tools, which they declined. They explained main issue involving open carry is they're more concerned someone else might see and grab your knife for criminal use. Since I had a Bosch tool bag they asked me to put it with the rest of my tools. It's incredible how knives are feared and mainly viewed as weapons vs. tools in our society. For much of my daily life I reach for my knife to cut and english muffin, a sandwich, a chop, or to share an sandwich or dessert. As for a Swiss Army Knife no cop is going to give you a hard time over having one, or even a Leatherman.

Excellent anecdote. Thank you so much for sharing. I personally do not believe that criminals go out into the world and look for someone’s pocket knife to steal to then commit crimes. They already have their own stuff. But… It is what it is. Thank you so much for watching and sharing!

@TheGothicHangman 4 месяца назад

Believe their logic is if there is some type of altercation, someone could view/grab your knife and use it against you. For me this is unlikely, I wear/yield a big studded belt that's been useful against people that pull knives for intimidation.

I seem to remember when I had to travel to New York tonight. Flaws said something about folding knives had to have a blade that was under 3 in, required. Two hands to open and were considered a "gentleman's knife," meaning it had either brass or nickel on the handle. I was assuming they meant like a traditional Buck or Case knife.

@knifetimestory 4 месяца назад

Okay. I think I understand what you wrote. Can't imagine that the style or the use of brass, nickel or wood would mean jack to a cop.

@knifetimestory 4 месяца назад

The whole video in and of itself should be confusing… Because it’s about a subject that was written in such a way to be completely confusing and your average citizen not be able to follow. On the one hand, a folding knife is illegal. On the other hand, a switch blade is not illegal. A switch blade is a folding knife that opens automatically. So don’t try and apply logic. Logic is not observed in NY.

@James-ke5sx 5 месяцев назад

Here in Canada we can carry any kind of knife even exposed. As long as you are not carrying it for self-defense and have a reasonable excuse for carrying it. You would think that a country that doesn't allow people to carry guns would would have laws against carrying large knives. It's kind of mixed up in this country so who knows what is going on.

Swiss Army Knives are not illegal in New York State. I’ve lived here 64 years and carried one about 50 of those. Have a Camper that fits nicely beside my wallet. Though some places forbid any knife (court houses, schools, Federal buildings, etc.) Corporations and local ordinances may forbid them as well. And I carry EDC type folding knives (with thumb studs) with pocket clips exposed.

@knifetimestory 4 месяца назад

I don't care if you lived here 100 years. For the entire time you were carrying a folding knife, it was illegal, as the law is written now. That was my whole point. It is very ambiguous. If a switch blade is no longer illegal, ( and they are simply automatic folding knives) then obviously a SAK is not illegal, but, the law says it is. So, they GET Ya either way.

What am I missing? Please explain!

@knifetimestory 4 месяца назад

Do you have a very valid question. It is all very confusing. However… Assuming that the part about a folding knife is actually in error being still a part of the law because quite simply a switch blade is an automatic folding knife and those are legal. My main point was the fact that many of us have been walking around with knives clipped to our pocket or a buck 110 in a sheath totally out in plain view and now it seems that that is illegal, and it should be concealed rather than visible. The whole point of the video is just to show the absurdity of it.

UK law: folding, non locking, blade less than 3", can carry without explanation. Anything else - locking, more than three inches or fixed blade, requires good reason. However, if stopped by the police, they will ask you why you have a 'street legal' knife. If you say, for example, self-defence, you will be charged with carrying a bladed article with intent. Police have been known to interpret blade length from where it exits handle, and I've heard they have also measured it by following the blade's contour. Scotland and NI might be different.

Always measure up to the handle and you can't go wrong. The knife length is not about how much you can slice with a cutting edge. It is about how much you can stab into a person which means all the way up to the handle. So i guess in NY, you need to stab twice to equal an 8" bladed knife?
