Transporting a Knife

[OmegaTrader]

I know this probably doesn't belong here, but I don't know where to put it so may as well put it here.

I recently bought a little pock knife about 4.5 inches long with a pointed tip and a seat belt cutter. My intention is that I just want to have a tool that can cut the seat belt or break the window in case I'm trapped in the car. Since this could be considered a "weapon," I like to know is it legal to carry such a thing in your car, and are there some kind of laws regarding having a little knife in your car like those that applied to guns? If anyone knows, please advise. PC included would be ideal.



Bought this from Amazon



Thanks

Short answer: state law is fine with that; check with your home county ordinances - state law does not prevent lower jurisdictions from creating their own (misdemeanor/infraction) crimes.

Thanks Librarian. Just to be safe, I replace it with this. Since I am clueless about knife laws, I play it safe. Hate to be charged with something as stupid as a knife, thereby, giving up my gun rights.
