Bowie knives, etc, are now legal. There are no more restrictions, on knives, except in certain places, schools, etc.bakertaylor28 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 07, 2018 2:55 pmActually, a "Bowie Knife" has a typical accepted definition- "a long knife with a blade double-edged at the point." Where the statute doesn't give a specific definition, terms get their ordinary definition in the dictionary. This is a common law rule imposed by the U.S. Supreme Court in criminal law.ckr13 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 09, 2016 9:27 pm Since we are on the topic of vague "illegal" weapons: What is a bowie knife? I also recently bought a 9.25 total length knife (the Ka-bar 1258). I read the TX penal code and thought I was in the clear, but a friend pointed out the ambiguousness of a "bowie knife."
