As amended the 5.5" rule only applies within the designated restricted spaces. Roughly speaking the new law would limit blades to under 5.5" in the same designated victim zones that currently restrict firearm carry. Outside of those areas the bill as currently written allows carry of any length blade, including previously prohibited classes such as daggers, swords, and the Bowie knife.ELB wrote: Also still 5.5" restriction.
So that state knife of Texas is still illegal to carry in Texas.
