Are spears illegal to carry in Arizona

Some of these responses got me rolling. Can’t help but think the OP is punking us. If not then sometimes it’s better to remain silent and thought a fool….. sound advice for the OP. We were all kids once I suppose.
 
If you're going to carry a spear, do it right. Get a hat, cape and eye patch.

Getting strange? Always has been. A few months ago some guy attacked his girlfriend with a machete near Alvernon and Glenn, and not long after that there was a guy walking up and down Dodge with an ax. Myself, I got jumped and stabbed right by Catalina HS on Dodge. Yes, all of these are near the infamous Grant and Alvernon intersection, where, up until last month, I had lived for ~15 years. Cops had to shoot and kill a guy (taser was ineffective) a few years ago at the Circle K there (now closed) for waving a knife around and threatening people (including stopping cars to do so). I myself had to call the cops on a tweaker who was fighting invisible flying pixies with a dagger in front of my place of employment.

I've seen all kinds of crazy shit. Nobody carrying a spear though. That'd be unbelievably stupid to do, even if it isn't illegal. If a citizen doesn't shoot the guy, a cop will (even if he's in a wheelchair, apparently).

I lived there from 1979 - 1982 and it was a fantastic place to live. I went back for a weekend around 2012 and I was very sad at what it had become. Many places I've lived have changed for the worse, including my hometown in Ohio.
 
Who cares if it's legal! 2A, am I right? Hells yeah, man!! Get that thing and strap it on! Arizona is a super understanding environment and everyone will get it. Seeing an under 21 young man going about his business with a spear, they'll know right away it's because you can't carry a bigger knife or a gun. Grocery shopping, check. Gassing up the car, check. Riding public transportation, check. Going to the movies, check. Coffee shop, check. You'll be set. No one will come near you, let alone try to assault you. One look and folks will cross the street just so as not to meet your glance.

Or, you could save your money and just piss your pants before going out and you'll get the same treatment. Either way, you're good, but I say get the spear: We want to follow your escapades. Ooh, get a cape, too! Would a shield be too cumbersome? This is fun!

Oh, and dating?! You MUST bring the spear along to show your dates how seriously you take their safety. That's how you woo a date! Successful romance depends on carrying a spear, man!

Good luck! Keep us posted!

It doesn't matter if it's legal or not. If anybody tries to give you a hassle - even a cop - especially a cop, just draw it, thrust it toward the sky and yell "Molon Labe!" at the top of your lungs. Then, if you have around 300 of your best buds backing you up, you should be able to handle thousands of people trying to harass you - at least temporarily - especially if you pick the right mountain pass to make your stand, and you've been training to be a warrior since about age 3 or 4.

I hope you got the metal version and not the PVC replica. Although either one may have about the same degree of effectiveness as a weapon?

Hears a link to the classic way to wield edged weapons:

 
On a more serious note, regulations as described in post #37 are prescriptive in nature. They tell you what a person can carry and don't present an exhaustive list of what's prohibited. It's safe to assume you can't carry brass knuckles, nunchuks, a sap, a war club or a baseball bat with nails in it or other weapons. To me at least, it is clear Arizona doesn't want people under 21 going about armed.

And how would that be done? No scabbard or sheath, no means of attachment to your person. There's absolutely no way to carry that thing and not look like a psycho.

As long as they sell socks and sweatpants at Walmart, he’s good to go.

i did read that but what i want to carry doesnt fall under those laws, those talk about knifes i dont think what i want to carry counts as a knife

You're right, the laws don't talk about knifes, in any state laws anywhere in fact. Because knifes isn't a word, kid.
 
As I was reading this thread, I couldn't help but notice Anthony Scali's posts kept getting liked by The Zieg The Zieg . All along, I was thinking "Zieg, what's wrong with you?!", but page 3 finally revealed the gameplan there, which makes sense.

Something like that can find you trouble that you never would have found without it.

Yes, or incredibly naive.
