Lol...  When the law changed, I think about half of the MHTF bought Boker autos.

I still love my Boker Kalashnikov. The paint on the handle is half gone and the blade slightly loose, but its sharp as hell and a spring well suited for men with strong wrists.

that is the auto of choice i think for most of the hometown forum.  i have 4 of them, for a cheap auto the function well and will hold up. i think there the best bang for the buck.

Check out BladeHQ.  They price match and have no problems shipping to non-mil and non-le.

Sounds like mine :) One of my screwdriver tips fits just fine in the screw that tightens it back down and gets the wiggle out of the blade.

Got an all black tanto and a black blade dagger with stone wash handle.  Until I got my Benchmade, the tanto was my EDC, plenty of well earned wear on that one.

One of my screws backed out and is missing. . It still functions 100%.  I have made several purchases from www.bladeops.com and have been completely satisfied.

yep, I bought one too. nice knife for the money.

So, is there a link for a rundown of the knife laws?  Are autos legal for carry, or just for CCW holders, or what?

When did they change back to being legal? I have always carried a Kershaw Rogue Auto, nice to know it is good to go now.

Bing is your friend...  RSMO 571.020

http://www.moga.mo.gov/mostatutes/stathtml/57100000201.HTML

571.020. 1. A person commits a crime if such person knowingly possesses, manufactures, transports, repairs, or sells:

SNIP

(6) Any of the following in violation of federal law:

(a) A machine gun;

(b) A short-barreled rifle or shotgun;

(c) A firearm silencer; or

(d) A switchblade knife.

This means that as far as the STATE is concerned, if it doesn't violate federal law, you are gtg.  HOWEVER, knives are not preempted the way firearms are.  This means that a local city, town, municipality may have more restrictive laws.  One example is Kirkwood which has a blade length restriction around 2.3" I believe.  The way the knife operates is irrelevant if the blade length is "excessive".
