Legaluse balisong butterfly knives
Legalise the buying, selling and ownership of balisong (butterfly) knives for recreational purposes.
The banning of these knives only affects lawful collectors and enthusiasts. If a criminal wishes to harm someone then they can easily do so with currently legal knifes. If they feel the need for other weapons then they can get them easily on the black market. The currently implemented law prevents law abiding citizens from owing these knives while criminals have free access to them.
