Switchblade Ban Struggles in Court

Switchblade Ban Struggles in Court

A federal judge spent most of Friday's hearing dismantling Minnesota's arguments for its switchblade ban, calling the state's 'offensive vs. defensive weapon' distinction incoherent. Knife Rights is seeking summary judgment that could end the 66-year-old ban without a trial. The outcome will ripple into a parallel challenge against the Federal Switchblade Act.
