thanks for the answers everybody and rexster and 64zebra , i just think they are interesting knives that's all.
whats complicated about the knife law? I quoted it in my post

if it has a switch/button on the handle that opens or helps open the knife then its illegal...and:
(d) It is an affirmative defense to prosecution under this section that the actor's conduct:
(1) was incidental to dealing with a switchblade knife, springblade knife, or short-barrel firearm solely as an antique or curio

....and I know what you're saying about other knives that are more dangerous

If loose gun laws are good for criminals, why do criminals support gun control?
