With the possible restrictions

People that commit crimes with a knife aren't buying these type knives that they want to ban. Most would make due with whatever they can obtain cheaply, or even for free. Fixed blade kitchen knives and thumb opening box cutters.
I don't believe that knives are high level criminal weapons, in the USA. A criminal that would use a knife to commit a crime would be as likely to use a screwdriver, or a club. So banning any type knife will have no effect what so ever on crime.
So, yes it seems they are just yanking people around because they can.

JJ....you're absolutely, 100% correct. The same concept applies to firearms. Take DC for instance....After the ban on guns in the early '70s....violent crime rose at an incredibly fast rate. This has happened in many other US cities as well. Cities that passed CCW permit laws, saw a sharp decline in violent crime. I don't understand how these so-called "policy makers" come to their idiotic conclusions in these matters. Someone needs to pull their head out of the preverbial ass!!

To the OP......personally, I'm not going to curtail my buying of AO knives (or any other for that matter), I'm not going to stop carrying knives, and I'm for DAMN SURE NOT going to relinquish my knives to anyone......PERIOD!

Anyone who submits is as stupid and idiotic as the fools here in DC who are trying ban our knives.

Just because they pass a law does not mean I will follow it.
