ok ok ive read this in the papers hear about it in the news, it will not go through. and if it does it means MANY people will be working with spoons. on the other hand the rest of HRS (hawaii revised statutes) do not actually SAY what is illegal, just what is legal (eg dive knife, cane knife, machete, or any "work tool").

Now just recently there was a drug (ice) related stabbing in a more upper class hood. which would help proponents of this bill.

im a landscaper i carry a Busse BAD and a mora and soon a golok...i use them all for work. ive talked to law enforcement in the hoods i work in and evryone knows to rim coconut trees you need a machete, and to install most landscapes you need a mora, the BAD is just in case.

this bill wont pass.
