Does anyone know if balisongs are legal in Washington state ? Thank You to who ever replys.
 
Washington Crimes and Punishments Section 9.41.250. Dangerous
weapons... Every person who shall manufacture, sell or
dispose of or have in his possession any instrument or
weapon of the kind usually known as... spring blade knife,
or any knife the blade of which is automatically released
by a spring mechanism or other mechanical device, or any
knife having a blade which opens, or falls, or is ejected
into position by the force of gravity, or by an outward,
downward, or centrifugal thrust or movement; who shall
furtively carry with intent to conceal any dagger, dirk...
shall be guilty of a gross misdemeanor.


The gravity knife definition really makes me wonder. I am going to the balisong forum to try and get clarification.
