Here's something I found, but as mentioned in the article, "Law enforcement at the state, local and federal levels, as well as state’s attorneys or prosecuting attorneys, are also encouraged to observe this protocol. Individuals should note that while law enforcement officials are encouraged to utilize this protocol, they are not compelled to do so. AKTI disclaims any responsibility arising from or in any way deriving from the application or misapplication of this protocol."

Not fond of AKTI shooting (stabbing?) themselves in the foot by including the choil in the blade length. Of course, I'd rather just flat out eliminate the length limit and go after people for behaviors, not tool choices.
That is the way laws should be worded. Like the ones stating no discharging a firearm within city limits except in self defense. Instead of stating that a person cannot Cary a firearm within city limits.
