No its not a "oxymoron" law... u can only carry a gun in some states and u need a license as well as restrictions as to what guns u can have (IE: the length of a barral on a shotgun). Knifes you dont need a license since they have every day purpose, but one restriction is the length (i think it might be a 4inch max, but i could be wrong), anything longer then that isnt needed for every day use.

if you get busted by the cops theyll charge you with carrying a concealed weapon even if the knife is within certain length
Banned
see it is an oxymoron law u can carry a gun but knives to a certain length
a gun will do more damage than the knife even if the knife is 9" long

You need a liscense for almost all states to carry a concealed weapon, including certain knives. Although there are some stats that still have open NON-concealed carry w/o needing a permit. At least here in indiana I can carry all the guns I want concealed, including knives. Except on school property and some public buildings, like courthouses.
I won't let the liberals in this country take my rights to protection away!

I have a permit to carry a pistol here in Georgia; costs around $40 for the finger printing and the records check, and takes around 8 weeks go get.
About knifes, I take around 10 to 15 knifes away from patrons, on an average Saturday night at the club where I work. They aren't trying to sneak knifes into the club they are usually wearing them in plain site, and just forget to leave them in their vehicle.

Bro, I've been carrying a knife since I was a 10 year old cub scout... I always have a small swiss army knife in my left pocket and a leatherman in a sheath on my belt.
But when it comes to personal protection I would NEVER use one of my knives... waving a knife around in a confrontation is a sure way to get your arse kicked and escalating a situation real quickly.
If you need a "self defence" tool you can carry, go for a blackjack, a sap or a police spring steel baton and learn to use it. I use a blackjack, and have been looking into getting a small police baton.
Remember, if you're going to present a weapon to an attacker, you'd better be ready to use it all the way. I am personally not ready to stab or cut someone... breaking their jaw with a blackjack or shattering their hand with a baton on the other hand I am quite ready to do.
You have many options, most of which are probably "more legal" than carrying a knife in your country.

The people who have a license to carry aren't just having fun shooting at people and trying to kill all the time so the argument that a gun could potentially kill someone faster doesn't hold water. The fact is, most people aren't great shooters and a knife would be the better option for them. In order to get a handgun permit, you have to go through training and 99.99% of the people who have them would only use it as a last resort. Seriously, when was the last time you heard of a shootout between permit holders that wasn't a self-defense situation?

Im pretty sure, You cannot carry any knife longer than 3 inches in the states, and it cannot be a fixed blade...
I still carry a switch blade, however, for safety reasons in the area I live in

ostie: 3 inches huh?i think its 3 inches here too how do they expect ppl to defend themselves i mean here not in the states no knives no guns no weapons so wut u just depend on ur fists? wut a ****ing joke

a lot of misinfomation on this thread. knife laws are not standard throughout the country, so anyone giving blanket advice without mentioning that it ony applies in certain states could be giving a bro bum advice that would get him into legal trouble. some states limit length, some allow all single edged weapons, some limit any blade with a switchblade mechanism (tactical folders are usually good). in my state, brass knuckles are covered by the same law as illegal knives, and i can't imagine a jurisdiction that wouldn't ban them. if someone could name one, i'd like to know.
carrying a firearm is legal in every state, the right to bear arms is guaranteed in the bill of rights. the only question is how many restrictions they put on you, and how any hoops they make you jump through to get a meaningful license. the most common restriction is not allowing concealed carry, which makes it almost worthless unless you're uniformed security. but don't give up before you try, it is one of your rights, and in many states, they can't deny you a license if you're clean and you just keep trying. it's the local police chief that makes the decision, so he wants to make it as difficult as possible, but it is still your right.
BTW - getting ANY kind of permit may be a good idea, even if you plan to do an illegal concealed carry every day. in my state, carrying outside of your restriction results only in losing your license and a summons to court. this is much better than a 5 year minimum mandatory for illegal posession of a firearm.

but u can have as much knives as u want at ur house rite?

Your house is a different story then carrying in public. You can have all the guns/knives u want at your house without a permit.

some good points here. also, anytime you successfully use a knife for self defense, expect to be charged with murder/attempted murder. if your case is solid, you should beat it after blowing every cent you have on legal fees and going thru a year of hell. and you won't always beat it. last year, a Harvard grad student was attacked by 2 convicted crack dealers who were starting $hit with random people. he was down and they were taking the boots to him. he pulled out his pocket knife and stabbed once. the guy died and he was convicted of manslaughter. he wasn't even allowed to bring up their violent past in court, he was simply railroaded into prison.
the baton is much more useful, but i would recomend a double action mace/pepper spray in addition, even more useful.
