I've always adored and admired katanas, and I finally have the luxury to own one. I have done my research on knife laws in California, but I just want to make sure one last time before purchasing a katana. Knowing me, I could have missed some major points regarding the laws.
No, I don't plan on carrying it around in public or even in private. I only plan on having it as a display. I know the knife laws in CA aren't as nearly as strict as the gun laws. So, I don't need a permit or a license to own a katana as a display, right? I believe anyone can carry around sheathed knives without permits, with exceptions of course. So same as Katanas (with the exception of the Zatoichi style Katanas) , right? It's legal for me to own a katana for display purposes without a permit or license?
