As a quick if incomplete reference guide, it's better than nothing. But, I find it hard to trust. One example I noticed is that for Colorado it seems to imply that only blades under 3.5" are legal regardless of knife type, but the section linking to the state laws doesn't show any mention of size restrictions. Also, the app is only viewable on a standard phone held in portrait mode. If viewed in landscape mode, the display is blank..completely white. Same with a foldable phone when unfolded.

you saw a lot of arguments so far. is it updated for the new laws that came out this year the switchblade has pretty much been decriminalized for the most part in most States. it's all about what you intended to do with it is the issue. lot of people on job sites need one-handed quick access to a blade. and for once they started listening to this constituents instead of just saying what we need.

Its worth the download, if only to read the section, "What to do if stopped or arrested." Very clear and concise app. Very useful for breaking down the foggy knife rules from state to state and town to town we all have to deal with.
