Podcast: The Second Amendment Implications of Hawaii Legalizing Butterfly Knives (Alan Beck)

by Stephen Gutowski, The Reload, May, 2024

This week, we have one of the most successful Second Amendment litigators on the show to talk about the surprising outcome of his latest case.

Hawaii legalized the possession and open carry of most bladed weapons a few days ago. That came as a bit of a shock to Second Amendment activists in the state, including our guest Alan Beck. While he had already won a ruling against the state’s butterfly knife ban and he expected lawmakers might try to undercut that case, nobody really expected a blanket reversal on how Hawaii treats bladed weapons.
