Despite all the craziness and disruption of normal life that we're all dealing with at the moment, with your continued support your Knife Rights organization is continuing its mission to serve America's knife owners.

Knife Rights Foundation is excited to introduce LegalBlade™ Knife Law App 2.0 - Knife Laws in America™ (www.LegalBlade.org), the enhanced second generation of the world's first and only knife law app. The improved LegalBlade™ App features an all new, easier to navigate user interface and it is now FREE compliments of sponsor Blade HQ.

Knife Rights' LegalBlade™ app provides guidance in your pocket and at your fingertips to the knife laws of all 50 states, the District of Columbia and over 40 cities. Knowledge of the law is the first step in avoiding an unfortunate arrest, loss of your knife or other legal complications.

Geolocation and a mapping interface have been added, allowing users to automatically find the knife laws in their location or by using the U.S. map or the original menu interface. Additional categories of knives have been added, as well as information on Federal and State ivory bans. The app now works in conventional vertical mode. Full details and links to the new app at http://www.LegalBlade.org

​

"Knife Rights continues to aggressively rewrite knife law in America with 32 bills repealing knife bans enacted since 2010, but knife owners in many jurisdictions still need to be careful about what knives they possess and carry," said Knife Rights Foundation Chairman Doug Ritter, who also leads the sister 501(c)(4) Knife Rights, Inc. advocacy organization. "Our LegalBlade App was an extraordinary innovation when first introduced in 2014 and this completely new interface makes it easy for people to access the knife laws wherever they might be or travel. We, and knife owners everywhere, thank Blade HQ for their generosity and sponsorship that empowered us to develop LegalBlade™ App 2.0 and allow us to offer the app to everyone, free of charge."

Mark Christensen, CEO of LegalBlade™ App 2.0 sponsor Blade HQ, said, "Blade HQ was thrilled to work with Knife Rights Foundation on the development and sponsorship of this app. We regularly get calls from customers in certain areas of the country, with questions about what knives they can own and what knives they can carry in their pocket. Customers travelling across state lines have similar questions. Helping with the sponsorship and development of this app was an easy way for us to get this information out to knife owners across the country."

LegalBlade™ is an educational service of the 501(c)(3) Knife Rights Foundation. The LegalBlade™ Knife Law App 2.0 is generously sponsored by Blade HQ. Assistance in research, review of laws, and updated links to case law were generously contributed by Firearms Policy Coalition, Firearms Policy Foundation, and Evan Nappen, Esq.

A great idea, and would work nicely.... "IF" each state had a state law saying state law supersedes city or county laws. Keep up the GREAT work.
 
Knife Rights has passed Knife Law Preemption in 13 states to date, as noted in the LegalBlade App for those states and those with Constitutional preemption . The app also provides the knife laws in over 40 citries and included links to the 2 largest municiple code databases. And, also provides instructions on how to find out the law in your ciiy or town or county if not listed. t
 
I just down loaded the app to my Galaxy and it works great. I was surprised at some of the details of Utah law. I thought I was current. Good information. Thanks.
