Received on time and without damage to packaging. Kershaw is on of my favorite brands, they come sharp and hold an edge well.OTF auto is something I’ve always wanted and came with a great price compared to other brands.

I've been using the Kershaw out the front knife for a short period of time now, and I gotta say, it's pretty impressive. The durability is top-notch, thanks to the high-quality materials they've used. I thought about spending more for a Microtech knife but I am glad I didn't. This knife has a nice solid spring and retracts with the same quickness. Definitely a solid investment for anyone looking for a sturdy, long-lasting otf knife.

    Hi Michael, unfortuately no, since it has a blade longer than 3"
    See section 4013. Zip guns; switchblade knives here >>> http://ago.vermont.gov/divisions/criminal-justice/gun-laws

    Hi Steve, from what I am reading, it is not legal in NM.
    New Mexico passed a ‘switchblade’ law in 1953. That law remains as § 30-7-8 Unlawful possession of switchblades which provides:
    Unlawful possession of switchblades consists of any person, either manufacturing, causing to be manufactured, possessing, displaying, offering, selling, lending, giving away or purchasing any knife which has a blade which opens automatically by hand pressure applied to a button, spring or other device in the handle of the knife, or any knife having a blade which opens or falls or is ejected into position by the force of gravity or by any outward or centrifugal thrust or movement.
    .
    Stay safe & have a great day!
