Today the NYT carried an editorial in favor of legalizing locking pocket knives that could be flipped open , albeit not designed to be "gravity knives" in the true sense of that phrase. The editorial notes that New York State's Office of Court Administration recommends the change in law and that the bill is now in the NY Assembly. Although, there seems to be a two hand opening requirement of some sort. ( I often draft legislation and I don't think that you could draft intelligible text to meet such a standard.)

Mr. Ritter, is Knife Rights aware of this pending legislation? And, if so, are you backing the bill?

Oh, and I didn't attach the Editorial because I don't know how to do it.
