I owned a Kershaw launch for a while, I really liked it but I misplaced it somewheres. I'm either going to buy another launch or go above your budget and get an infidel.
>>34008329
Wait did mexico coppy Illinois or vice versa
None, get yourself a useful fucking knife.
>>34008401
This.

>switchblade
>legal to carry in Illinois
>what is federal law
Good luck with that m8. Might as well carry a balisong if you want a useless toy.
>>34008452
the federal laws only restrict the sale and manufacture. not possession

Please tell me what exactly is useless about a knife that opens in a different manner than another knife? Once opened they're both knifes. If OP wants a switchblade why shouldn't he buy one?

Go baton some kindling with a switchblade and tell me how that goes.
>>34008329
Given your budget, I would say Benchmade.

Go carry a bush knife in your back pocket and tell me how that goes.

It's almost as though you want to lose your expensive knife.

Yeah, not what its for. Show me any pocket knife that can. Because they're all the same. And it's what OP wants.

Yet the suppressor bill is dead, there's a manufactor bill and assault rifle ban on the move.
Fucking hell I hate this state.

>He unironically thinks batoning isn't retarded abuse of a knife
>He unironically carries a slab gripped no distal taper 3/8" thick fixed blade knife shaped object because muh batoning
If you aren't capable or comfortable shaving your balls with your EDC then it is too dull/has a shitty utility edge and you need to git gud
Buy a saw or bring a wedge dumbass
>Inb4 hurr but wut of u don't have a saw but somehow have your ridiculous overbuilt slab knife with you and nothing else
>Not having a saw on your EDC
My victorinox workchamp shits all over any knife you can baton with at 1/4 of the weight. Work smarter, not harder.

Get a mikov if you want something classy
Get a microtec OTF of you want something edgy and good

niggers and spics don't carry around suppressors in their pockets.
while i'm not against the bill, it's pretty clear that the reason why it got this far is to allow thugs to get away with carrying easily concealable knives when otherwise they would be arrested for possessing them.
