Jody, is the situation described above legal? Granted, the DC Code is worded a bit strangely:
Quote:
22-4514. Possession of certain dangerous weapons prohibited; exceptions.

(b) No person shall within the District of Columbia possess, with intent to use unlawfully against another, an imitation pistol, or a dagger, dirk, razor, stiletto, or knife with a blade longer than 3 inches, or other dangerous weapon.
I suppose self defense is not "intent to use unlawfully" but it would still make me nervous in a city that has completely banned handguns.

Mort, I have a khukuri beside my bed too.
