You can carry a concealed knife without a permit. A CPL is a "License to carry a concealed PISTOL". Has nothing to do with a knife. RCW 9.41.250 explains that it is illegal to "(b) Furtively carries with intent to conceal any dagger, dirk, pistol, or other dangerous weapon; or" http://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=9.41.250 So, you are legal as long as you are not concealing it to be shifty, secretive with ill intent etc. |

The CPL is for a pistol only, and doesn't apply to knives or other weapons. |

BTW, does WA Law consider a K-Bar or any other "hunting style" knife a "dagger or dirk"? Seems like the same "Patchwork of Laws" exists for knives as well as what used to be in effect for firearms. Preemption time for knives too? |

Ugh, I feel like a doofus for asking, but what is the situation for Tomahawks? I bought a SOG M48 Style Tomahawk that I plan to carry while hiking in the Mountains. Would I "Get in Trouble" for carrying one on I.E. Mt. Pilchuck Trail? |

Nope, a good multi-tool is a part of every hikers gear. |

Just carry all your daggers, dirks, auto-knives, balisong wakizashis and stuff in a chef's knife bag and keep a chef's hat in your glove box. |
