There is a chapter devoted to safely carrying and using your folding knives. And a special section contains an in-depth discussion of the pros and cons of knife and weapons bans and the legal ramifications of carrying and using pocketknives in different areas of the world.
For every current or aspiring knife collector—or anyone with a keen appreciation of the elegant design and artistry of modern folding knives—this book contains everything you’ll ever want to know.
