            Can quarter a deer in just a few minutes. no need to use a saw with this knife. Use a good steel and it can be made shaving sharp in seconds. My wife can always tell when I sharpen mine, as I will have no hair on my left forearm. It has served the Marines well and is by far the best knife ever made. Also it's made in America.

                    there are no set knife laws for the united states as a whole, not sure about different cities or state laws but i think the general rule is you can carry a fixed blade of any size as long as it is exposed and you have it for a legit reason. but if your just out in the wilderness then yea its defiantly fine
