rhino said:It was one of the first couple of seasons. Something was putting people into big "coccoons" up in trees. Scully uses a Buck 110 to cut into one to see what's what. I'll try to remember the episode name...
Here you go: Darkness Falls

Sounds like an over zealous cop who got caught up with the tv camera. I really doubt that Iowa has a CCW law that includes sheath knives in plain sight. :jerkit:Buckaholic said:Well, in the past week or so, I have seen one Pathfinder, General, and two 110 folders on "COPS".
What I saw today surpirsed me though...in Des Moines (sp?), Iowa, it is apparently illegal to have a 3.5 inch fixed blade in your car cup holder (in sheath and not covered). Arrested the guy for CCW. Officer didn't get into the specifics, but told the perp that it is illegal to have a fixed blade in the car.
I will write that in my "what did I learn today" book...

Well, it started with the Huggy Bear van being pulled over for not using his turn signal three times. Then it was a suspended license...outta the van buddy. Officer looks inside, a sheathed Sharpfinger in the cup holder. Cuffs on.Mike Kerins said:Sounds like an over zealous cop who got caught up with the tv camera.

Well, let's see, the guy is driving down the road with the drugs and paraphernalia right there in plain sight in the van!Buckaholic said:Well, it started with the Huggy Bear van being pulled over for not using his turn signal three times.

Next, a ball bat. Next a syringe. Then some meth.
Guy asking what he is being arrested for: Possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of drugs. Argues with officer, and then, "oh, BTW, possession of a concealed weapon...it is against the law to have a fixed blade in your vehicle".
So, I think it was 'cus the guy was arguing/disputing that he got hit with the knife gig...but the fop said clearly that it was illegal.
As Paul Harvey would say, "and now, you know the rest of the story".
