The 7 stores which have not settled need the legal reasons why the knives do not meet the NY definition.

I may be incorrect, but I bet most people (even CNN readers) reading the news think NY is nuts. These kinds of bans are outdated. That stuff was tried from the 1920s until the 1980s and are known to be failures. I know lawmakers make laws and the more laws they make, the larger their resume, but what is shocking (even for NY) is to enforce this law for assisted opening knives.

But they did not take action against Home Depot for liner locking knives. Does that mean they just lost the right to enforce that against individuals?
