On the behalf of John Vaughn, who is having posting problems.

-------------------------

If any of you guys like Star Wars, Star Trek and movie replicas ranging from swords, light sabers and others my friend from Ghost Recon has a website with all that stuff and it is www.bladereplicas.com

And he has more than what is on his website. He is just redoing his website and doesn?t have everything on there yet and you guys have a special request and can get just about anything and he has great prices. If you guys order anything from him just say OneEYE sent you, which is my gamer tag on Ghost Recon for Xbox live.

Thanks guys

Not unless you plan on carying them in public.

Now wait, does that mean carring it concealed in public or just straight up carring it? Concealed weapons laws varry from state to state. In Colorado, you can conceal a weapon in your car, or carry it in plain view in public with the exception of educational facilitys.

Laws vary greatly from state to state. The issue is not concealed unless you plan on sticking the thing down your pants. The issue is how they may be transported in public, which public areas they are allowed, and can you even have them at all without some sorta registration procedure. THey are hardly utility knives. LOL

Your local gun shop should be able to give you the information as many of them carry blades as well. Many laws are based on blade length so be careful there also.

Well I dont intend on carying or buying any of them, Dont have the money.

I was just wondering about it.

From what I've been told, the licencing and rules for transporting such things is also dependant on whether the weapon has been sharpened to an edge or not; There's a speciality shop in one of the local malls around this town that sells things like that, four-foot warswords and whatnot, and a Supply Sergeant that sells those nasty looking knives. I asked about the swords in the fantasy shop and was told that because there was no edge, there are no particular rules for transporting the thing within the city, or even the country, though you might get an odd look from airport security (or, perhaps, this being post 9-11, shoved to the ground by a troop of submachine gun toting guards and shown to guantanimo bay.

)

From what i've seen on the site however, and from several painful comments on the consequences of 'concealing' the weapon by 'sticking the thing down (one's) pants' it would be safe to assume that they are sharpened and fall under the guidlines for restricted weapons. I suppose if I pestered the guy in the Supply Sergeant he could tell me all about the rules for that... but I tend to get nervous in shops full of cammo gear, assorted firearms and sharp knives.
