| Anyone know if owning/carrying a micro tech knife is illegal or against any nc laws? Is there any blade length limits? Any good resources on this? |
I carry a Spyderco Military now...

- 14-269.2... (d) It shall be a misdemeanor for any person to possess or carry, whether openly or concealed, any bowie knife, dirk, dagger... switchblade knife... razors and razor blades (except solely for personal shaving), and
any sharp-pointed or edged instrument, except instructional supplies, unaltered nail files and clips and tools used solely for preparation of food on educational property [or to cause, encourage, or aid a minor to do likewise]. Not being an arse here, just looking for clarification. Thanks to all. |

Not being an arse here, just looking for clarification. Thanks to all. Clarification is easy. You have to look at the entire statute § 14‑269.2. Weapons on campus or other educational property. So under sub section (d) you cant have the above on educational property. NOI |

Probabably is, but I like for people to look for the answer themselves.
NCGS says 14 269.6. Possession and sale of spring loaded projectile knives prohibited. (a) On and after October 1, 1986, it shall be unlawful for any person including law enforcement officers of the State, or of any county, city, or town to possess, offer for sale, hold for sale, sell, give, loan, deliver, transport, manufacture or go armed with any spring loaded projectile knife, a ballistic knife, or any weapon of similar character. Except that it shall be lawful for a law enforcement agency to possess such weapons solely for evidentiary, education or training purposes. (b) Any person violating the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor. (1985 (Reg. Sess., 1986), c. 810, s. 1; 1993, c. 539, s. 167; 1994, Ex. Sess., c. 24, s. 14(c).) This law is exclusively for the projectile knives that were on the marked 20 years ago. It was never intended for switch blades. Go to the Source.
