Well, I didn't know about the edge-turning, it just looked that way. I doubt that I'll be doing any more brush clearing or chopping anyhow. So thanks for answering that one.
I'm with you 100% on the stupid knife laws, and I've railed about being able to carry a gun* but not a switchblade, but at least I don't have to worry about some yahoo carrying a switchblade.
Since they're illegal, doncha know.
TNX again for the answer on the khukris.
