No Tom,...NY City is ridiculous, I could never live there!
Even my many high powered spring piston airguns are illegal there. (a Whiscombe JW-80 fixed barrel, many Air Arms silhouette rifles, A gaggle of the old Feinwerkbau model 124 rifles(several custom walnut stocked) and a FWB 127 rifle,...plus a dozen or so quality CO2 rifles and pistols).
I'm in the little more liberal knife carry location of "Upstate" New York. in the Capital region around Albany, New York. (check under my name to the upper far left)
Even here,....I had to slightly round off the top edge of my older Model 8-4 with JRB sheath, to stay legal with double edged blades illegal to "carry" laws, with some exceptions allowed for hunting and fishing with a valid license. It could easily be resharpened in the States where that is legal. I believe Randall will dull this off for delivery to a customer for the same reason in such States.
At near age 59, I'm more attune to be feeding the wildlife around my home than eating them,.....so I haven't hunted in 20 years or so. I DO have the fattest looking squirrels (both grey and red), chipmunks, and ground squirrels,.... and many types of birds look well fed also. I must go through $20 a week to keep them all happy. :-)
Joe, I am not the smartest guy, but I think you like to ask questions you already know the answer to. There is always a better tool for every job. Pick one for your needs and stick with it. Proficiency on something is way more important in IMO. I would contact a knife maker that can custom build what you are looking for. My lack of being a college boy stunts my attempts to reply to online verbal combat. Randall makes what they make, love it or buy another product.
You're right of course,.....but as they say,...."If you don't ask,........you don't get"
It never hurts to get "the powers that be" to at least consider some new things......
cheers,
Joe T
