[QUOTE="okgr8outdrs, post: 21966, member: 263"] I had a Buck Rush that was more of a tool to me than a weapon. While visiting the St. Loius Arch, it was mistakenly identified as a switchblade, confiscated and I was given a citation for $100. It had a 2.5 inch blade, and I later discovered that a knife with a blade [I]less than[/I] 2.5 inches was not considered a dangerous weapon and can be carried into federal facilities, just not federal courts. They seemed to be more concerned with the method of opening than the blade length, because the latter is a more serious charge. I paid my fine rather than fight it and risk getting charged with the greater infraction. That was last July, I still haven't replaced it because I haven't found anything that I like. I am considering buying another and removing the spring just to be on the safe side. [/QUOTE]
