[fartknockers421]

[pirata142009]

Are balisong knives legal in canada?



[mein2d]

@PureTroll99 Switchblades are illegal to sell, buy, trade, carry or otherwise possess. Part III of the criminal code first defines such knives as prohibited weapons (armes défendues). The Canadian Criminal Code defines the switchblade:

"A knife that has a blade that opens automatically by gravity or centrifugal force or by hand pressure applied to a button, spring or other device in or attached to the handle of the knife."

I know it sucks :(

[TheLegacyofgaming]

they are all legal in florida correct? ive read the laws and my understanding is that u can own but not carry them

[TheMoe1995]

hahahaha when you said "where not gonna be using it"

the lighter....I laughed cuz it's true, lighting someones cig then u accidentally slice their neck open xD

[jollygreengiant820]

last time i checked any knife could be deadly so why are some illegal

[Everest1016]

why wod a balisong be illegal just b/c it uses gravity? what does gravity have to do anything with it, sorry but im not critisizing ur vid but im just questioning why that is

[sharpgearz]

@Everest1016 we're not sure either because with all the tricks you can do with it, its a really cool knife. The way we see it, areas banning them were probably blaming them for stabbings or saying its quick access to a weapon. In reality, if someone wanted to hurt someone really bad, they would probably stab a person with a pencil if thats what they had in their hand. The good thing is that the new spring assisted knives has their own classification.

@sharpgearz I would think a spring assisted knife would be more illegal than the butterfly knife. The butterfly knife is a cool knife and shouldn't be illegal. I'm going to get my friend when he goes to south africa to get me one

[sharpgearz]

@Bouncest2 yea, butterflies are freakin cool with all the tricks... too bad i dont know any myself, but it looks like the knives are flowing like liquid when people are playing with them... =)
