I was just wondering if it's illegal to carry a steel baton lets say either on you or in your car. I saw some cool batons online for 30 bucks and they're pretty cool. Are they legal? I'm from America New York

There shouldn't be a problem with having one in your home. Again, it's the matter of carriying it on your person, which I don't believe it's legal, unless you have a job that requires you to do so. I'm not too sure about that.

with less than leathal weapons it's normally founded under local law so no place is going to be the same. Most likely new york is going to be a big NO. If you want protection you should look into some mace.

I personally prefer the knife in the boot... because where I life if a floding knife is under 3 inches you can carry it on you no hassle.

Yes, according to the constitution it is legal. Some "politicians" who think they're smarter than Thomas Jefferson and George Washington might think otherwise, but it is legal under the ultimate law of the land.
