The type of knife also makes a big difference. Many knives that fit in a pocket are, in fact, illegal in some jurisdictions (e.g.: switch-blade knives - butterfly knives/balisongs - 'gravity' knives [those that open at the flick of your wrist] - etc).Be careful - know the law of the location you are in. Regardless of whether or not it 'clasps' together or fits in your pocket, some jurisdictions put a maximum length on the size of a concealable knife. You COULD be in violation if in those locations.ALSO -
