Comment on My country's police just busted a dangerous 3d printed weapons manufacturer.

Afaik, all one hand operation deployment knives are illegal to carry in Italy. Ballisongs/butterfly knives included.
I’m not sure if there are special licenses that would allow you to carry them.

Maybe the law changed? Maybe they were legal to own but not to carry? Maybe illegal knives of factory quality were more prevalent?

Sorry, I formulated that badly. They used to be legal up until the 70s or 80s.
