I'll be moving pretty soon to West Virginia and have been reading up on the knife laws there. From what I've read, there is no limit on open carry, but concealed carry must be limited to blades 3.5" or under. (https://www.akti.org/state-knife-laws/west-virginia/)
Kniferights.org reported that a bill was passed, effective May 24th 2016, in which:
"The new law allows West Virginians 21 years old and older, who are not prohibited persons, to carry a concealed "deadly weapon," including knives, without a permit. That includes switchblades (automatics), balisongs and gravity knives."

I haven't seen any other websites cover this so I'm wondering if this is all true as outlined on kniferights.org. Any information, insight or thoughts are appreciated.
