How will you use one if they're illegal? You probably won't be able to carry it with you and if you do you might get caught and get in trouble. I'd spend my money on something I could carry around without having to look over my shoulder when I want to use it. Just my opinion. Besides, I'm not even sure you'll be able to find a retailer that will ship it to your location given they are illegal there. Many companies won't risk the trouble. Just my $.02.

Welcome to Bladeforums! We have a whole forum for talking about where to buy knives, and we have a forum for talking about automatic knives, too.

In general any dealer who doesn't live in your country has no interest in whether you're obeying whatever peculiar laws and regulations your country might have or not -- you send them money; they'll send you whatever you order. However, it would not be polite to go posting on an internet forum where the police of all countries can see it, "HEY, DEALER X BREAKS THE LAWS OF LOWER SLOBBOVIA." The people of Lower Slobbovia might find that useful information, but not after it's been posted where the police of Lower Slobbovia can see it too.

Ooops, another post got in while I was writing mine and before I closed the thread -- now you're going to be all confused. To avoid confusion I'll just say he didn't know what he was talking about and leave it at that, okay? Go on over to the Automatic Forum and have fun.
