Do knives count?

jdl4ever:
I carry around a 3.5 inch switchblade and own several different kinds.  In NYC you can't carry one if it has a 4 inch blade or larger or the spring powered ones.  I just got a spring assist one that is borderline legal that I like since you can open it with one had. 

White Israelite:
yea knives are fine, their a weapon so you can discuss it.

Kiwi:
Knifes are very handy, I do like butterfly knives for carrying on a daily basis.

jdl4ever:
I could use some advice on how to use the knifes.  To me, they seem to come in the way when fighting someone since my hands are not free to do the blocking, punching and fast karate hand motions since I'm afraid of cutting myself.

Just go and learn fencing basics. The principles apply to all blades. Specialise later.

Stay away from complicated oriental martial arts. Study a military system like that of Rex Applegate or Capt W. E. Fairbairn.
