The state s knife-law reform bill, Senate Bill 140, will take effect April. 12.
SB 140 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. That new designation will allow carrying any knife concealed under state law.
