A switchblade is actually a type of pocket knife that opens quickly. A pocketknife does not always open automatically like a switch-blade, so that is the difference.
It is illegal to sell a switchblade in Delaware, even if you are licensed to sell deadly weapons. Furthermore it is illegal to own or carry a switchblade in Delaware. the closest thing would be a spring assisted open knife. check out Kershaw Knives.
If the knife is on the inside of the pocket, it is concealed and must follow concealed carry laws. if it is on the outside, it is open carry. As long as it's lawful, you can carry it either way. I personally carry the knife on the inside of my pocket.
If you are a police officer or security guard. if you carry a baton out in the open most people won't care. if you carry a baton in your pocket you will then have a concealed weapon.
well..i live in florida,i'm 16 and i just bought 4 switchblades a fold open(that looks like a switchblade) ,a dagger,and a bayonet all for 55 dollars.i carry my knifes all the time,as long as you don't go flashing your s*** you wont get in trouble or caught.the word is a corrupt place,be prepared.
If you mean, "does the blade flip open when the trigger is activated," then yes it is.
Based on the law, pocket knifes seem to be the ONLY knife you can carry in public, but only in defense.
On most switcblades you will push the button that you pushed to open it then close the blade into the handle of the switchblade
yes
It is legal for you to carry an assisted opening knife but not a switchblade. An assisted opening knife does not have a button but does have a spring, you slightly open the knife and then it opens the rest of the way for you.Remember it has to be under 5.5 inches.
is there a permit charge to open carry
if it is not open
