California fag here

Its illegal to conceal a fixed blade in california, and id like to carry my 140 without getting a bunch of dirty looks. What can I do?
>>
>>33105851
get a sheath wear it on a belt or something
>>
>>33105916

Well of course.

That's where all my fellow califags get scared and call the police or whatever those fucks would do
>>
>>33105930
most calmmunist faggots would give you a dirty look for even knowing this forum exists, I wouldn't be surprised if they do call the cops for you having a knife in a sheath, but you need to decide if you're willing to deal with that in exchange for having a method to defend yourself. Cali sucks, but get a sheath for your knife on your belt is the best you can get, open carry is a way of dissuading you from carrying one in the first place

>>33105851
Leather sheath.
Too tacticool and you get looks. And of course too long a blade and you catch attention as well.
Most people I know just go with a solid folder.
>>
>>33106230

I do have the sheath for it. I can comfortably carry it vertically on my side and horizontal on my back - which I find to be the most discreet and comfortable for this issue. I could just carry my large folders, but i want to carry this fixed blade.
>>
>>33106291
I usually have a problem if I do a horizontal carry on my back (getting caught on a chair arm when sitting down) but if that's what you find most discreet I say go for it
>>
>>33105851
What part of California do you live in?

If it's in a major city, you'll probably get some dirty looks. If it's a rural part or even a smaller city, you can probably get away with it.

Matt Freeman, a knifemaker who lives in Fresno, open carries the fixed blades he makes all the time. But then again, it's Fresno. Your mileage may vary.

Conceal a fixed blade.

It's fine. I actually carry an all black Nimravus in this state.

Illegal
>>
>>33110879

I'm going to start. But im also underage, so that might go against my cause. How do you carry yours?
>>
>>33105851
I used to carry a full sized Ka Bar everywhere, nobody did a damn thing, then I moved to AZ and now have a 357 on me. Get over it man, if you're not being a jackass, cops won't do anything
>>
>>33111135
Usually I carry it on the belt in the front while /out/. I have a folding Benchmade for around town duty.
>>
>>33111135
If you're under 18, you gonna get banned. And you'll probably have legal issues regarding carrying/buying knives.

So, buy cheap gas station fixed blades. Have a couple in reserve. One gets confiscated, pull the next one out of the lineup.

Also consider carrying some nontraditional weapons. A Duncan yo-yo can do some grievous damage if you use it right.

Buy a nice folder and carry that instead. Big 5 has those H&K by Benchmade knives on sale for $20 all the time. In fact, the Unsub and the Citation are on sale right this minute. Nice knives. I carry mine around Oakland and Hayward all the time. Totally legal.

Move to Arizona

As in carrying it in public? That's just stupid.
>>
>>33112402

Kek, i have a large collection of folders. It's about carrying my 140 because I spent 230$ on it and I don't carry it around nearly as much as I'd like to.
>>
>can carry a fixed blade the size of my arm on my belt
>can't carry a cheapass switchblade because "muh auto"
state laws are strange...you can carry a sword in most states but if you have a dinky 3 incher that is automatic the fuzz with rape you in the butt with his gun

Also, full-auto switchblades are a felony in CA, but spring-assisted folders (like the abovementioned Benchmade H&K knives) are perfectly legal.

Also, you can't have an AR-15 because scary pistol grip. But you can have a Mini 14 that does exactly the same thing because no scary pistol grip. And you can have a scary pistol grip on an M&P 15-22 because our assault weapons law specifically exempts rimfire. Which all makes sense because... uhm...
