Thanks, I had CA in mind because I was born and raised there, brass knuckles and some knives fall in the same category as nightsticks as well.

Ha. In Oregon our state Supreme Court ruled years ago that all such weapons are protected by the state constitutional right to bear arms.

Billy clubs, brass knuckles, and even switchblades are legal here as a result of that decision, but a significant portion of the ruling was devoted to a series of twisted rationale to avoid it's application to most modern firearms (though I am hoping the upcoming incorporation and it's definitions will force a revisiting of that issue).
