Another article I read said was that it was a switchblade.

Legal here in IN, but not everywhere

I want to see the actual knife, and I want the cops to prove through chain of custody that it was in his possession.

Two points:

1. Just by (lying and) mentioning the word “switchblade” to gullible reporters, “switchblade” is inserted forever into the conversation, true or false.

2. A normal 3” folding knife clipped to his pocket (just like mine) might miraculously become a switchblade after being switched from a cop’s stash of drop-weapons. I want to really examine the chain of custody, get sworn statements, photos etc before I automatically take the cops’ word about a “switchblade” that may or may not have been in the victim’s possession at the time of his arrest.

The article said it was clipped to his belt. Can you get a switchblade that does that?
