Basically Knives, including ones over whatever the limit is. I didn't think there was any law on concealed vs a belt knife. IE a CCW has zero bearing on any weapon other than firearms.
Reason I ask is on another shift at work had some off duty Larimer or Loveland PD show up off duty. Facility is clearly marked no weapons etc. Knives always been kinda grey area, small pocket knives even nice ones like Gerber etc usually slide but the big ol bowies attract attention. So I guess it came down to an argument about the guy taking it to his vehicle or turning it over to security for his stay. Amongst this guys arguments was that he has a ccw and he can carry it where he wants, they got slightly loud so the non security administrator just let it go.
Initially I was told that he had a gun which had me pissed off that a cop and ccw holder would not know private property determine what they allow. With it being a knife, just wanted to make sure there wasn't some reasoning/rule why he would claim that. Otherwise just have a hard time imagining how he might of thought he had the right to bring what he wants in. (Odd timing as it came on the heels of another off duty PD leaving a weapon in belt pouch hanging on coat hook in a bathroom...)
