There is something about facing one’s own mortality that helps focus one’s mind on what’s really important. As some of you are aware, I was diagnosed with Light Chain Multiple Myeloma (a blood cancer) back the middle of March. Nothing like a serious cancer diagnosis to turn one’s life upside...

Twenty years ago a single newspaper article changed the course of knife owners’ civil rights in America. On July 25, 2006, I opened The Wall Street Journal (yes, back then we got a real paper printed on dead trees) to read an outrageous and highly inflammatory headline article entitled “How...

The Ninth Circuit denied rehearing in our lawsuit challenging California’s switchblade ban on Second Amendment grounds. While disappointing, the denial was not a surprise.

Washington state’s draconian knife ban bill from last year, SB 5098, has reared its ugly head again, as we told you might happen. The bill failed to get a floor vote before last year’s legislature ended. Now it is back and due to the way Washington’s legislature works, the amendment we worked so...
