As of June 24, 2008, hand guns are illegal in Washington, D.C. However, this could change soon as the United States Supreme Court is expected to rule on the constitutionality of Washington, D.C.'s handgun ban. The answer is no. The recent decision of the SCOTUS determined that the D.C. handgun ban is unconstitutional, however, that does not mean that D.C. must issue permits or recognize permits from other localities. At the present time, D.C. does neither.

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.

Does a concealed carry permit in Ohio allow the concealed carry of knives?
It depends on the state. For instance, in Florida, yes, it's a concealed weapons permit and it covers weapons besides just guns. If I remember correctly, you can carry any weapon that's legal to have. On the other hand, Tennessee issues a "Handgun Carry Permit" that only covers handguns and nothing else, BUT it is not illegal to carry a concealed knife as long as the knife is otherwise legal (has to be less than 4 inches, basically), so the permit is irrelevent regarding knives. ADDING: Georgia just changed their law in 2010 to issue a "weapons carry license" that includes both handguns and knives with blades 5" or longer. Such weapons are not only covered by the permit, but also not subject to any city or county local laws. State-level preemption. But that's Georgia. Other states are different.
