I've always had this image of the blade popping out while it was in my pocket.

The Texas constitution has certain provisions where local governments can not "overrule" certain state laws, but apparently knife regulations are not included. Maybe this oversight will be remedied soon.

I don't think that's the case that "those are few and far between". Most of the blades of folders, fixed blade and automatic knives have a "false edge" and are not be classified as daggers.

I never really considered an OTF until I read this thread. Since I am left-handed, I like the fact that they are ambidextrous.
