The state charges $115 for the initial permit, then $50 every four years to renew it. The class that you have to take to qualify for the permit can cost from $50 up to about $100 depending on where you take it.

It depends on where you are. In Tennessee, it costs $115 for the first four years, then $50 for each 4 year renewal, however, you must first take a safety class, which costs between approximately $50 and $100 depending on where you take it.

Other states charge different amounts. I have a Pennsylvania permit, which cost me $20.00. New Hampshire permits cost about the same. Florida is about the same as TN, somewhere around $115 or $120.

If you have a valid handgun permit from any U.S. state, you can carry the gun loaded and have it anywhere in the vehicle. If you do not have a valid carry permit, you must abide by federal transport law, which basically says the gun must be unloaded and not accessible. The best choice is unloaded and in the trunk with the ammo in a separate container.

Does a concealed weapons permit include knives?

It depends on where you are. In the U.S. each state sets its own rules. For instance, in Tennessee, there is no such thing as a weapons permit, it's a handgun carry permit, and applies to handguns only. Other than handguns, basically anyone can carry any legal weapon, but to carry a handgun, you must have the handgun permit. On the other hand, Florida issues a "concealed weapons permit" and it covers any legal weapon.

What is the difference between a personal protection permit and a ccw permit?

It depends on what you mean, but also, what state you are in. I've never heard of a personal protection permit. A CCW permit is a permit to carry a handgun on your person for personal protection, however, it should be noted that all states in the U.S. don't issue CCW. Some states, such as Tennessee, issue "handgun carry permits" and concealment is not required by law.
