    46.05 does not apply to you if you hold a Texas CHL. I just learned that.


    WHOAH, WHOAH, WHOAH!! YES IT DOES! WHO TOLD YOU IT DOES NOT? Don't say it was my post in another thread, if you THINK it did you need to go back and re-read it.

    It is unlawful to sell a switchblade, it is unlawful to posses one.

    As has been stated in many....many other threads, an internet forum is probably NOT the place you want to get legal interpretations on weapons laws. Nor is "the guy at the range", your neighbor who went to the police academy for 5 weeks, your cousin who is in law school, your sister-in-law who works at the gun counter of Bass Pro, or any other layman.
    Look up the law, read the law. If you have the skills to find this website you are capable of finding Texas state law, and almost all of our members here can read.

    There are some people whose assessments I'll trust online, though. TXI is one of them.

    wow, they have everything on sale now.

    and as far a legality, the big gun shows in houston ALWAYS sell auto knives. pasadena dosen't allow them

    Just because the cops look the other way sometimes doesn't mean the conduct isn't illegal. Get caught carrying one of those knives on the street and I bet you end up in jail.

    For the record, I believe the knife laws are BS, but forewarned is forearmed.

    i know about legality of carrying. but they're ok to have at the house or on a boat. just getting it there is the tricky part lol
