Question
Are butterfly knives illegal in New YorkAnswer
No, they are not. There are many stores in New York where you can purchase them. Thanks for using Cha-Cha!(242-242)In some U.S. states it is illegal to possess and/or carry such a knife in public. In certain jurisdictions, butterfly knives are categorized as a "gravity knife", "switchblade", or "dagger" although they are also occasionally outlawed by name ("butterfly knife").The knife is illegal in California if blade length exceeds two inches.
In New York, the butterfly knife has been determined to not be a gravity knife.
In Pennsylvania, the butterfly knife is legal for conceal and open carrying.
Butterfly knife trainers feature a special blunt and unsharpened "blade," and are legal in areas where butterfly knives are not.

Are butterfly knives legal in Texas?
Per the Texas Penal Code, butterfly knives (aka balisongs) are legal to own, and as of September 1, 2013, they are legal to carry if the blade (measured from the handle) is no longer than 5.5 inches and only sharpened on one side. The bill that legalized the carrying of switchblades (including butterfly knives) was House Bill 1862 (83rd Regular Session of the Texas Legislature) by Rep. Harold Dutton. As of September 1, 2015, Texas state law (Texas Local Government Code Section 229.001) also preempts municipalities and counties from creating or enforcing knife ordinances that are more restrictive than state law. The bill that added knives to the list of weapons (a list that already included firearms, air guns, and explosives) that municipalities and counties cannot regulate was House Bill 905 (84th Regular Session of the Texas Legislature) by Rep. John Frullo. This means that, with the exception of federal properties, butterfly knives are now legal throughout Texas.

Can cities make their own laws?
Yes they can. but they cant let you do things that are already illegal at the county or state level. they can only be more strict. The original answer above is only true because we the people, and society in general have to come to accept things as they are. We got to our current governmental system, a corporatist system, incrementally over hundreds of years. In reality in a Constitutional Republic only the Constitutional entities, the Federal government, and States governments, can make law. And only within the Congress, and legislatures can this law be made. They also cannot delegate their law making power away to other branches of government, or lower levels of government. The judicial branch cannot make law through their decisions at any level. The Executive branches, and their agencies cannot make law, which they call regulations. They cannot charge fees, aka taxes. A State legislature cannot delegate it's law making powers to Counties or Cities as well. However States can direct Counties, and local governments to enforce State laws. Municipalities in particular are in fact corporations, and their ordinances are not laws that can be applied to private citizens. They can only apply to the municipal employees themselves, and other corporations within their jurisdiction. Naturally in this day, and age you still must obey the illegal ordinances of the municipal corporation or face the wrath of the corporatist system now virtually devoid of the checks, and balances our Founding Fathers carefully put in place.
