The knife HAD a spring in it, so it was ILLEGAL in Baltimore. NO TECHNOLOGY is allowed in knives in Baltimore. PERIOD.
“The knife HAD a spring in it, so it was ILLEGAL in Baltimore. NO TECHNOLOGY is allowed in knives in Baltimore. PERIOD.”
Maybe that is the way that the police have interpreted the law there for 50 years. I wonder if it has ever been tested in court. Another source says that those type of knives are sold all over the City, and nearly every male there has one.
So it could be a “sure it is illegal, but we ignore it until we want an arrest” kind of laws.
