I am fairly new to the forum although i have been reading it for a long time. What are the laws on size of an EDC? I carry a D4 and i am getting a D4 ZDP, am I looking at Legal ramifications if I am caught in NYC with it? Not that i would likely ever be in NYC considering I am more southern in persuasion, but I may be making a trip up there soonish. Outside of Legal issues i couldn't care less what other people thought of my EDC especially if its as useful to me as my D4. Screw final exams...

I think I'm going to wait for the Urban.
Also, isn't the Navigator full flat ground?
No, the C93 Navigator II is a high saber grind.

Hi. If you search our forums for New York city you will find a variety of threads on their restrictions. I will say what ever you carry in NYC, keep it in your pocket & don't use the clip in the city. Carry laws vary on a state to state basis and even city to city, there is no universal limit. Check the laws section on bladeforums.com for more info.
So many knives, so few pockets... :)

In NYC, the knife musn't flick out. OTOH, if they don't see it, they shouldn't bother you. The problem is, I ride the trains enough, etc, that I may get a random stopping, etc or end up in the wrong place and wrong time and get searched

I guess the Cricket would be perfect for you.

You can clip the knife inside your shorts if you have to :mad:

And the serrated one cuts just as well as your confiscated Para :mad: :mad:

When I am in "knife sensitive areas" I often use the Cricket as a money clip. Strange, but when you use it as such, people just sort of forget it is a knife.

Until they see you cut something with it LOL :D

On BF Sal called the D4 a Pittbull in disguise. Well, I like to call the Cricket/SE a piranha in disguise ;)
