Sigh. Pocket Knife Ban In the Works?

U.S. Customs and Boarder Patrol (CBP) wants to change the rules so that assisted-opening pocket knives are lumped into the same group with "switchblades." Kniferights.org says that the rule would also cover most one-hand-opening knives, and may even be interpreted to cover just about any pocket knife.

Click here for more details and sample letters to send to CBP and congress.

EDIT; 11/14/09: The bill was defeated.

EDIT; 11/22/09: There was an article on it in either Guns Magazine or American Handgunner. It seems to still be possible.
