Well I read up before I bought the CKRT Ripple and it's safe and legal, just over 3 inch blade and razor sharp. The closest legal knife I found with fast opening and legal is a benchmade mini grip. So much easier in CO where I could get CCW for some sketchy areas.

The spring opened assist is a grey area, but from what I am reading in the penal code, it is allowed. If it is a switchblade it must be under 2" but that is legal.

Folding knives, I do not believe there is a limit. LA County has it's own rules, but as a whole that is what I am reading.

Schrade Viper 3 OTF is a pseudo OTF knife that would be legal in CA since it is a open assist, not switchblade. That knife though looks dangerous in terms of opening it and releasing it.

Do they sell balisongs too? I've been wanting a bali for a long time, but unfortunately, they're considered "switchblades" even though they take longer to open than the average tactical folder.
