Wound with a knife?

It depends on the size and location of the wound. If you nicked yourself shaving, you will probably only need to clean it. If it won't stop bleeding apply pressure. Just use water to clean the wound. If you have a serious cut you need to immediately apply pressure, clean, bandage and/or if it is bad enough, go to the hospital or call an ambulance. If it is severing a artery or vein, is close or penetrating a vital organ, or won't stop bleeding call an ambulance immediately and apply first aid as needed. If you have a minor cut just apply pressure to stop bleeding, clean, and bandage. Just make sure to periodically air the wound out. I recommend you take first aid classes for in depth training.

Are ballistic knives legal in Russia?

Basically, not in the USA or UK! It is probably the same for just about everywhere else.

On a federal level it is certainly the intention that they should be illegal. It is not legal to transport them across any state lines but as I understand it the actual legality will depend upon the state and even the city that you are in. This is how the law according to the original federal prohibition on ballistic knives lay anyway. It is possible there have been changes made to that law to actually outright outlaw them but I have not found any mention of it if that is so.

They will have differing levels of legality depending upon what you wish to do with them. If a state specifically states that concealed carry is prohibited then by implication it is arguable that open carry is not prohibited. This would also mean that possession in the home would not be a problem. A number of states have apparently just covered them by the same legislation they have regarding flick knives, which are largely illegal themselves.

Of course possession in the commission of an offence is a mandatory 5 year term I believe.

A big problem for anyone wishing to add such an item to their collection is that sale and manufacture appear to have stricter prohibitions than mere possession so it would probably only be ok if you already owned the knife. The essential thing is to check the laws of every state and as there are fifty states and many ways of interpreting statutes this would take an exceptionally long amount of time. In addition to the statutory prohibitions it would also be very important to look at any legal precedents set in the courts.

In Florida it was possible to manufacture and sell flick knives up till 2006 before a precedent was set on appeal in a court case when the defendants left the state after their initial success in their first trial. I am not sure but it may have been the case that ballistics were only fully prohibited during that case as well.

There are certainly a number of states or cities within states that I would contemplate the possibility of possessing such a thing on private property as not likely to attract prosecution as long as there is a legitimate reason for possession. However I would imagine that it would be extremely difficult to obtain or manufacture one legally.

One thing to very strongly keep in mind is that even if a thing is technically legal according to statute it is very possible that a judge will interpret statute differently to whomever is advising you and set a definite precedent in any case brought against you that will establish the illegality of possession even where it was not technically illegal before. There may be very different answers over the legality of an item depending upon whether you enquire from the police, a lawyer, a legislator, or a judge.
