Maybe part of the 'evidence' was viewing "West Side Story"!

Re: Texas decision against assisted opening knives

I've got several Kershaws, from a Chive, to a Whirlwind, to a Boa.

While concerned about this ruling setting precedent, I will not stop carrying any of them.

That Boa has so much mass, you can time it opening with an hourglass.

Re: Texas decision against assisted opening knives

The way I interpreted it, they focused solely on the spring assist and discounted the trigger mechanism.

Re: Texas decision against assisted opening knives

That's really distressing!

So now there is case law stating that assisted opening knives are the same as switchblades?

It also didn't help that the defendant couldn't get his story straight.

Re: Texas decision against assisted opening knives

Charles,

I registered as a non-attorney user. Your link still only takes me to their website and does not bring up the referenced case.

If it is in the Case Digest section, that has a subscription of $29/year.

I tried to do a search and was told only attorneys can search.

What am I doing wrong?

There were signs some were losing them before. It seems that date is sigificant.
What happened then?

That would have been the first anniversary of the terrorist attack of 9/11/2001.
