I realize this is not necessarily a gun question but I'm going to ask anyway as it somewhat pertains to the carrying of weapons in Texas. I searched and skimmed through a few threads I apologize if this has been answered already.
Does anyone have a legal definition of what constitutes a "bowie" knife? Is it a certain length? Does it have a hilt? Can "bowie" be applied to the majority of fixed blade knives?
Also was the blade length in the definition of "illegal knife" changed in the last couple years? I could have sworn when I moved here in '06 that it read 3 7/8 inches.
Thanks in advance for your time and replies
