New knife-law reform legislation took effect April 12, and two bills have been introduced in the Ohio General Assembly to void any more restrictive local laws.
The new law in effect is Senate Bill 140, which repeals a statewide ban on the manufacture and sale of automatically opening pocket or folding knives and defines any knife or cutting instrument as a weapon only if it is used as a weapon. The new designation allows carrying any knife concealed under state law.
Todd Rathner – a lobbyist for Knife Rights, a nonprofit advocacy group based in Arizona that has promoted knife-law reform nationally – lobbied for passage of SB 140.
