While knife laws are generally a matter of state, federal law also restricts the sale and transportation of knives. Thanks to this article we would have already found the first requirements that we must fulfill if we want to carry a knife and avoid the fine. These are: no stick stockings (of any kind), no automatic knives (those that open by pressing a button or mechanism) or daggers less than 11 cm but double-edged and pointed. Therefore, we would be excluded from daggers less than 11 cm with a single cutting edge (a knife) and, in principle, knives that are not automatic. But if we continue reading, we see that Article 5.3 contains another restriction for knives that are not automatic: they cannot measure more than 11 cm, as for daggers. On the one hand, we have the Civil Protection Act, which states very clearly that weapons or other items that pose a threat to the integrity of people on streets, squares or public facilities may not be carried or used illegally. The regulations on knives and other knives in our country are quite deficient and not very detailed. It`s very clear what you can`t have when it comes to knives, but obviously some everyday products would be banned if the law was strictly enforced. We all have knives that exceed 20 centimeters at home to cut ham, which are sold without control in different stores.
However, we hope that these fundamental points about the rules will dispel some of your doubts. Although the knife follows the rules of knives and it is legal to carry it, the police can obviously search it. Depending on the situation and the reason, the police can search any dangerous object. Whether it`s a razor, a cutter, an iron bar or a metal key ring. If the police find that the object is dangerous to the wearer or other citizens, they can confiscate the object at will. If you usually carry a knife or similar in the car, there are some things you need to know if you don`t want to accept the unpleasant surprise of a fine. An ordinary 10 cm knife is not the same as an automatic knife with a 14 cm cutting edge, although both are used for the same purpose. Under new laws passed in Texas last September, knives are no longer illegal and people cannot be punished for their use. Nor can people be punished for making an automatic knife, repairing an automatic knife, selling an automatic knife. The spring knife repairs a knife.
Previously, all these actions were illegal. This law is dealt with in HB 1862. The use of these illegal knives can result in severe penalties. Individuals must have a permit to possess a hidden weapon. It is also illegal to possess explosives such as bombs, bombs and missiles or to possess a machine gun. It is legal to transport, use and manufacture automatic knives in Texas as of September 1, 2020. Since the 1950s, it has been illegal to possess or use an automatic knife in the state of Texas. Carrying or using one of these knives has always been considered a Class A offence, and individuals could be fined up to $4,000 and confiscated the weapon.
You could also get a year in the county jail. In the case of knives (knives, knives, etc.), there are other differences: Although knives are famous as collectibles, tools, and self-defense weapons, bringing a knife or possessing certain types of knives could be illegal under state or federal laws. For example, the Transportation Security Administration or TSA prohibits travelers from bringing knives, swords, razors and utility knives on a plane. Domestic air passengers are allowed to pack knives in their checked baggage, provided the knife is securely covered and packed.
