Question?

Chuck,

Check out Washington State's code:Washington Crimes and Punishments Section 9.41.250.

Dangerous weapons... Every person who shall manufacture, sell or dispose of or have in his possession any instrument or weapon of the kind usually known as...
spring blade knife, or any knife the blade of which is automatically released by a spring mechanism or other mechanical device, or any knife having a blade which opens, or falls, or is ejected into position by the force of gravity, or by an outward, downward, or centrifugal thrust or movement; who shall furtively carry with intent to conceal any dagger, dirk...
shall be guilty of a gross misdemeanor.


Do you know of any court decisions that were handed down to specifically place Balisongs into any of these catagories? I could argue for hours on how a bali DOESN'T qualify there.
