Are you allowed to have a knife in the non-"sterile" section of the airport. Say I want to dropoff or pickup some family and will just be in the lobby and baggage sections, is this ok?

How old are you? I take it you are a minor? If so you might be more restricted.
I am not a minor, no. What's that got to do with it? Hmm...
My understanding for knife carry, in general (some cities have their own codes), in California:
Fixed blade - must be open carry, open carry in any suburban or urban areas will highlight you to law enforcement and probably be more trouble then it's worth. I only carry a fixed blade in the woods while camping / hunting / etc.
Folding knife - Can carry concelealed any length of knife, but open carry is prohibited. Again, there are places (like around schools) where no knives are allowed and then specific municipalities with their own laws.
Again ... Folding, any length, concealed, is OK in Cali
So that law really makes sense then. I can get busted for toting a BRKT PSK 2.25" fixed blade in my shirt pocket along with my writing pen, but not for toting a Benchmade LFK 5.2" folder stuffed in my waistband?
Exactly! Remember, these are West Coast laws are are specifically designed to remove all commen sense from the equation.

I was going to state Left Coast laws in my earlier post but I bit my tongue not wanting to offend anyone.Here I am going to tote my fixed blade RAT RC-3 at work tomorrow. Heck, state law enforcement in downtown Nashville see me take it out of my left front pocket where it is totally concealed and use it on the job and don't say nothing. I feel sorry for you CA guys.

Don't worry; we here on the left coast know it sucks.

Yes sir, that is the one that I carry daily. Nice photo. I use a rawhide bootlace thru the lanyard hole and attached to my belt when I am out on the water (fishing), so I don't accidentally drop it into the drink. Very handy; does 99% of what I need a tool for!![]()
