It should be pretty good; the author is BFC's Bernard Levine, esteemed moderator of the Bernard Levine's Knife Collecting & Identification forum.
Good to hear. I'm a bit concerned about Kentucky's law as I'm driving there this weekend.
(4) "Deadly weapon" means any of the following:
(a) A weapon of mass destruction;
(b) Any weapon from which a shot, readily capable of producing death or other
serious physical injury, may be discharged;
(c) Any knife other than an ordinary pocket knife or hunting knife
"Ordinary" seems ripe for mischief by LEO and the courts. I have a Kershaw Spec Bump, not sure how to determine if that is considered ordinary under the law.

Yes, and it was meant to be that way.
I just got a CRKT/Ken Onion ripple. I might take that on my trip instead just to be safe.
