I don't know about Ohio, but as an example, a state that has no preemption could allow a concealed knife with a 6" blade by state law, but the town you're in may have a dumb law that only allows blades under 1". This could be the problem in the situation that started this thread.

I have read that even in Texas this can be true, as far as a municipality can enforce a different law. I am getting to the point that I believe we have more to fear from the law than the criminals.
