sorry, should say "carry", not "buy". most states have a maximum length you can carry (4-5.5 inches is common).

although, i would imagine at some length, it becomes a "sword" (even if marketed as a knife) and falls under some other "nanny"-ing. i have not googled that.

Long knives in the UK are like full auto guns in the rest of the world.
