hey all, i joined this site years ago, but have never once posted here.
having been a FL LEO, for many moons, as well as my Dept.'s "Violent Crimes Investigator" (for a short period of time), i have a pretty good understanding of most of the weapons related state statutes. i realize that open carry is (for the most part) illegal, here, but open carry of non firearm weapons is NOT. i have gone back to OC'n a fixed blade knife, rather than concealing it, and wanted to hear from everyonelse on this subject.
what have been your experiences with OC'n large, or atleast what sheeple would consider "large", knives? have you ever been detained, etc? any comments made?
so far, i've have no problems, but i personally know of other LEO's who thought OC'n a large fixed blade was illegal and told someone they could not carry the knife they were wearing. don't fret, i enlightened that particular LEO.
and to everyone who does not OC a fixed blade, please consider doing so to help increase the normality of using man's (sorry ladies, HUman's) oldest tool.
