ok well it is my pleasure to inform you that, not only is this an open carry state, but i am required by law to openly carry this blade as dirks or daggers may not be concealed on one’s person. and furthermore – no, let me finish, im not done, and FURTHERMORE, a machete technically counts as a dirk by law due to only having a blade on one side as opposed to being bladed on both sides. so yes, Charlene, i am going to walk into this Joann’s Fabrics with a machete on my hip and no you may not stop me. also do yall still have those 50% off cupons?
