A lot of companies and eBayers refuse to ship pocket knives to NY, because they don't want to risk prosecution for importing or selling "gravity knives" . . . ie: any locking folder that can be forcibly snapped open via force of inertia by: loosening a pivot, depressing the lock button, or grasping the blade and snapping out the handle. Forget about "assisted opening" as those are considered switchblades there. AG was making noises about lawsuits and extradition for criminal prosecution for mailing such knives to NY. That was nearly 2 years ago and I don't think anyone was charged, but still, they have made their position clear. Just because a law has not yet been enforced does not mean it never will.
