Bringing A Knife Into A Different State?

[bcknives]

I'm driving with my mom and my two brother from Eastern Kansas, all the way to Western New York. I feel like it would be a good idea to carry 3 knives with me. Leatherman Blast Multitool, Spyderco Tenacious, and the Ontario RAT-3. I don't think it will be a problem carrying these knives just for cutting a seat belt, or any prying tasks, just in case (it makes me feel better having these, as most of you would know). I really want to make sure I'm not breaking any laws by carrying these. I know in Kansas I'm not but in New York I'm not to sure. If you know any of the New York knife laws can you let me know if I am or not?

Thank you in advance.

Info about state laws is available online.

My recommendation, for what it's worth, is the same as for handguns, "Concealed means concealed."

Don't know how accurate any of these are, use the advice at your own risk:

Those are all legal in NY state to carry. However, I personally would be a bit more careful with the RAT 3. Legal? Yes. Recommended for daily carry? No.
