Oregon Concealed Carry

Hi, I'm heading to Oregon for the Summer and needed to clarify some laws.

Oregon Public Order Offense 166.240 Carrying of concealed weapons.

According to this section, they only prohibit concealed carry of autos. So does that mean I can carry a fixed blade concealed?

What about my Rajah II in my edc day pack? (I'm also assuming it is perfectly legal to clip a pocket knife to your pocket here too)

Also,

any dirk, dagger, ice pick, slungshot, metal knuckles, or any similar instrument by the use of which injury could be inflicted upon the person or property of any other person, commits a Class B misdemeanor.

Would my Comtech Stinger violate this section?

Many thanks.

I am not a lawyer but do live in metropolitan Oregon.

Open carry when appropriate has always served me OK.

You can open carry automatic knives.

If you have a concealed carry permit I am under the impression you can
carry what you want( firearm, blade).

I did not see reference to the Rajah carry method. IMO belt carry should be no problem.

Portland and Eugene have a more liberal population density.

The stinger is going to be officer discretion.

I have open carried an F1 or HRLM in Portland with no sideways looks - yet. I just toss my t-shirt over it in the more populated places.

Hope this helps,
J.
