We Stopped U.S. Customs Pocket Knife Grab!
U.S. Customs proposed re-interpreting the Federal Switchblade Act in a manner that would not only outlaw assisted opening knives, but would likely have outlawed all one-handed opening knives. Working hand in hand with other organizations, Knife Rights stopped Customs Pocket Knife Grab! The President signed into law the FY2010 Homeland Security Appropriations Bill on October 28, 2009, protecting our pocket knives. The bill included our amendment to the Federal Switchblade Act that clearly exempts assisted and one-hand opening knives.
