There was a thread on an auto knife law in the Wisconsin section somewhere. Where did it go? |

Thanks, I saw that thread but thought it was just about campus carry. I post on a couple of blade forums and always thought it was funny that I could carry three handguns on me legally if I wanted to but couldn't carry a knife that opened with one hand. Exactly.

Quoted: Also a new bill being introduced that repeals the requirement for deer (& bear) hunters to wear those silly-ass backtags. It's about time.  AFAIK, only WI & PA still require them.If someone is poaching or trespassing you aren't likely to read the backtag number anyways. |

Well, it would put all the back tag holder manufactures out of work.........lol Quoted:

The backtag repeal has been proposed before, but the DNR is so against it. Well, it would put all the back tag holder manufactures out of work.........lol With only 2 states requiring them, there can't be many jobs at risk.  And if you have good ones, they last for decades. The tag holders I've been using were bought in about 1992... camo trimmed for bow season, blaze orange trimmed for gun season. They haven't made a dime off of me in almost 25 years anyway.

Back to the original topic. How is an Auto knife defined? I have a Kershaw Blur that I can surely open with one hand. Kershaw calls it an assisted open knife. In violation? Quoted:

The only somewhat positive thing I have heard from it is when the Hmong guy's number was seen and partially written down (IIRC) after he shot those other hunters. |

Any place that sells Benchmade sells this model including REI. Seriously a misdemeanor? geezzzzzz.......

I think the guy who got the numbers was someone near where he came out of the woods. Nothing to do with the victims. |

Quoted:
The bill is not getting a vote in the senate until January and is possibly dead. 
What's with the "possibly dead"? Senate org is the committee that releases bills to the floor in the senate. Most of the bills in senate org are on the calendar for tomorrow. Ones that are not on the calendar have an issue that has kept them from the floor. There must be an issue on the knife bill that kept it from getting on the calendar. I said "possibly dead" because there is always January which will have the next floor day. |
