By and large Karambit knives are utility knives, tools, as opposed to weapons. Most appear to have blade lengths of less than 2 inches. So long as the knife is not concealed, it generally would not be illegal to carry in any state. The only place every knife is illegal in the US are airports.
As many as you can carry. There are no legal limits in the US on the quantity of ammunition one may carry.
The legality of carrying an 8-inch knife in a semi-truck depends on the specific laws and regulations of the jurisdiction you are in. It is best to consult local laws or reach out to a legal professional to ensure compliance with knife-carrying regulations.
Butterfly knives are defined as a type of "locking gravity knife" in most law since it opens and locks automatically by the force of gravity (inertia or centrifugal force). In US law, the government can only impact butterfly knife legality REGARDLESS OF SIZE where they have been able to apply commercial transactions substantially affecting interstate commerce (the Commerce Clause) in the Constitution. Or, where they have other jurisdiction, like the US Mail, military bases, Federal lands, Indian Reservations, or Washington DC. Thank the 2nd Amendment for that. In North Carolina, similarly, they can make the butterfly knife illegal to carry on school grounds REGARDLESS OF SIZE since there is other precedent (NC14-269.2... (d)). Again, thank your 2nd Amendment rights. To answer your question then, it seems that it is case law that defines the knife's legality, saying "Knife about 4-1/2 inches in overall length which, when folded, was clearly designed for carrying in a pocket or purse, was an 'ordinary pocketknife' as defined by this section." (1989) -- referring to section NC14-269 ... except in your own home then, this would be a concealed weapon in NC. So it may not be as much the type of knife as much as the overall length or where you are carrying it that will make it illegal.
Despite the fact that California has extremely strict weapon laws (just like New York) you can own just about any sword legally. The only exception are sword canes. They are illegal in several US States.
Whatever they buy on their own. Knives aren't an issued item, so, if you want one, you bring your own. I carried a SOG Seal 2000 knife.
The US Army issues several types of knives, and in addition to that soldiers can carry their own knife or knives. Most popular and widespread models are Buck M9 field knife, which also doubles as a bayonet, Kabar and Ontario military knives. During Vietnam era SOG bowie was issued as a standard knife.
It is legal to possess handcuffs in all US states. It is generally legal to carry them, but if charged with another crime such as kidnapping, the handcuffs could be considered a crime tool and result in additional charges.
