Yes.
Here is the billclicky linky Now, here is some bad news. If you CCW a pneumatic gun (airsoft, bb, pellet), it is now a felony. If you CCW a normal firearm, it is now reduced to a misdemeanor. Yep.... so real guns have the same weight as a speeding ticket, but a bb gun is a felony. |

On a serious note though, the auto knives are only permissible at the state level right? So clark county can say no auto knives and they are still a no go, correct?

So help me out cause I'm stupid.
That almost reads like it's ok to concealed carry a switchblade, dirk, dagger, and belt buckle knife. Or is it saying you can now get a permit to carry those things??? Are butterfly knives good? Didn't see them mentioned anywhere but was pretty sure Nevada had something against them. Maybe it was that they were considered a switchblade?? |

Is their some coverall state pre-emption law that took effect in June? In my case, living in Clark county, I can now own autos but cannot carry them... at least that's how I understand the new state law and the existing Clark county law. |

I combed through the laws pretty thouroughly as well as emailed the sherrifs office.
The premption part was removed so clark county laws still stand. Greater than 3 inch blades concealed is still illegal. Autos and such are defined as dangerous and deadly weapons via clark county law but that does not prohibit their possession unless you are loitering fighting or on school property. Here is a listing of las vegas municipal code these are the only laws i can find in vegas regarding knives as you can see there is nothing prohibiting possession or even concealed carry unless you are loitering fighting or engaged in disorderly conduct. here is a link to where i copied the text from https://www.municode.com/library/nv/las_vegas/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=TIT10PUPEMOWE_DIVIXWE 10.70.010 - Defined.
"Dangerous or deadly weapons" includes, but it not limited to: (A) Any dirk or dagger; (B) Any knife with a blade three inches or more in length; (C) Any snap-blade or spring-blade knife, regardless of length of the blade; (D) Any ice pick or similar sharp stabbing tool; (E) Any straightedge razor or any razor blade fitted to a handle; (F) Any dangerous or deadly weapon within the meaning of any law of this State restricting the use thereof; and (G) Any cutting, stabbing or bludgeoning weapon or device capable of inflicting grievous bodily harm; and (H) Any firearm, as defined in Section 10.66.010, other than one carried pursuant to a valid permit issued by a duly authorized governmental authority or an ordinary rifle or shotgun lawfully carried for purposes of hunting or other lawful sport. The permit requirement does not apply to: (1) A person who has not been a resident of the City for at least sixty days; or (2) A firearm during the seventy-two hour period within which a person is allowed to register that firearm under Section 10.66.040 (Ord. 5976 § 5, 2008: 1949 code Ch. 38 § 4; prior code § 6-3-4) 10.70.020 - Loitering while carrying concealed. (A) It is unlawful for any person, while carrying concealed upon his person any dangerous or deadly weapon to loaf or loiter upon any public street, sidewalk or alley or to wander about from place to place with no lawful business thereby to perform, or to hide, lurk or loiter upon or about the premises of another. (B) It shall be unlawful for any person who has concealed upon his person any dangerous or deadly weapon to loiter about any place where intoxicating liquors are sold or any other place of public resort. (1949 code Ch. 38 § 5: prior code § 6-3-5) 10.70.030 - Fighting or disorderly conduct while possessing. It shall be unlawful for any person who has concealed upon his person or who has in his immediate physical possession any dangerous or deadly weapon to engage in any fight or to participate in any other rough or disorderly conduct upon any public place or way or upon the premises of another. here is a complete listing of laws for clark county regarding knives. there is only one and this is where the 3" concealed law comes from https://library.municode.com/index.aspx?clientId=16214&stateId=28&stateName=Nevada 12.04.180 Concealed weapons prohibited without permit.permanent link to this piece of content
It is unlawful, within the unincorporated area of Clark County, for any person to carry upon his person a concealed weapon of any description, including a knife with a blade of three inches or more, a gun, pistol, revolver or other firearm, capable of being concealed, without first having received written permission therefor from the sheriff. state law is what prohibits knives on school property you can search through those here https://www.leg.state.nv.us/NRS/NRS-202.html although the site hasn't been updated yet |

I just replaced my Benchmade 750 SBT Pinnacle (bottom), that I've carried for the last 15 years, with a couple of ProTech autos. 
The big one on top is a ProTech Rockeye Auto designed by Les George. The blade is 3.4" long drop point, with a nice deep belly made with CPM-D2 steel. The handle is 6061-T6 aluminum which really helps to keep the weight down. Its got a great feel in the palm and is a super smooth opener that doesn't try to jump out of your hand when you hit the button. The smaller auto is a ProTech Sprint with carbon fiber inlay. Its got a 1.95" DLC black blade made with S35VN stainless steel. I'll carry this one primarily when wearing dress clothes or heading over the border into California where the sub 2" blade is legal. I'm pretty ecstatic with the change in the law...it opens up a whole new area of knife collecting for me that consists of knives that I can use and carry on a daily basis rather than just a neat toy to take up space in the safe.

The 'unincorporated' part was what made me wonder. But yeah, my clip is readily visible outside my pocket. And although I haven't been pulled over in 20+ years, I would let the officer know I had it. Not too worried about it, in actuality.

A dagger was defined in 1987, by the Nevada Supreme Court, in Huebner v. State, as a short weapon used for thrusting and stabbing and a dirk as a long straight-bladed dagger. When determining if a weapon is a dirk or a dagger, the Court in Bradvica v. State, said that one must look at whether the knife has hand guards and a blade that locks in place. The Bradvica Court found that a steak knife was not a dirk or dagger because it was not primarily designed as a weapon and did not have hand guards to keep a person from cutting themselves if using the knife to stab. http://www.knifeup.com/nevada-knife-laws/ |

Las Vegas, Henderson - not legal.
June 2, 2015: Knife Rights' Nevada Knife Law Reform Bill, SB 176, was signed by Governor Sandoval on June 1st. This act repeals existing bans on switchblade knives (longer than 2-inches), dirks, daggers and belt buckle knives and becomes effective on July 1, 2015. Unfortunately, because preemption was dropped from the bill, citizens and travelers will still have to be wary of local regulations more restrictive than the new state law. |

Unfortunately, because preemption was dropped from the bill, citizens and travelers will still have to be wary of local regulations more restrictive than the new state law. I posted the las vegas laws above. They are legal at least in regards to clark county, las vegas and henderson laws. just because they dropped the preemption doesn't mean there was ever laws on the books locally prohibiting them in the first place. Yes las vegas still defines them as dangerous or deadly weapons but the only restrictions on dangerous or deadly weapons is that you can not carry them concealed while loitering or fighting. as for henderson this is the only law on the books which mimics county code. 8.98.010 - Concealed weapons prohibited except by permission.
It is unlawful for any person to carry upon his person a concealed weapon of any kind or description, including a knife with a blade of three inches or more, a gun, pistol, revolver or other firearm, within the City of Henderson without first having received written permission from the chief of police.

Here is a link to all the counties and several cities http://www.leg.state.nv.us/Division/Research/Library/Links/Codes.html?CFID=28506318&CFTOKEN=c147e1ecb2a73629-267B8604-155D-0375-14412191EA9A7396 |

For Reno, there is one mention of switchblades but it may only pertain if you break some other code while in a park (since this one falls under the Regulation of Parks and Recreation Facilities chapter)? I'm no lawyer.
Sec. 8.23.140. - Carrying dangerous weapons. Sec. 8.23.140. - Carrying dangerous weapons.
Any person in possession of a dangerous knife or dangerous weapon during his commission of a violation of any section of this chapter shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. (a) Dangerous knife means a knife having a blade that is two inches or more in length from the tip of the knife which is customarily sharpened to the unsharpened extension of the blade which forms the hinge connecting the blade to the handle. (b) Dangerous weapon means any explosive or incendiary device as defined in NRS 202.260, a switchblade knife, nunchaku or trefoil as defined by NRS 202.350, a blackjack, billy club or metal knuckles. (c) No archery, paint ball weapons, air guns, BB guns, or like devices shall be allowed in a park or recreation facility. (Ord. No. 5652, § 1, 2-9-05; Ord. No. 6217, § 1, 1-18-12) |

I checked out a number of them when I was up at the Benchmade and knivesshipfree factory stores last week, and while they are certainly slick, I just couldn't get over how much play the blades always seem to have when compared to a traditional auto. For some reason they just make me nervous that the blade will collapse or the locking mechanism will fail...and the guy behind the counter at the Benchmade factory store admitted that they do a lot of warranty repairs on OTF knives when customers use them hard. I'd like to hear your opinion of the Tumult when it comes in...it appears to be one of the better ones on the market and was one of the knives I examined at the Benchmade store. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Have you played around with OTF knives much? I added the cheaper one to play with, and celebrate our new found freedom until my thumb bleeds. HK/Benchmade has a lifetime warranty, so I guess I can send it back if or when it breaks from me playing with it all the time. It will replace my assisted opening EDC knife. |
