UPI, The Salinas Californian, Salinas, CA: 27 May 1968: Rep. Lester L. Wolff, D-N. Y., said today he would introduce legislation shortly to restrict both the manufacture and sale of switchblade knives and similar weapons. Note: Many California city criminal codes, such as Oakland, are more restrictive and prohibit possession or carry of all switchblades regardless of blade length. See OMC 9-36.040

On 12 May 1958, Parliament passed the Restriction of Offensive Weapons Act 1959, [45] which banned the manufacture, sale or offer to sell or hire any type of automatic-opening or switchblade knife. The law came in response to their perceived use by juvenile delinquents and gangs and associated media coverage, as well as by the 1958 passage of the Switchblade Knife Act in the United States. Indeed, much of the language in the Restriction of Offensive Weapons Act 1959 appears to be taken directly from the American law. Alabama State Legislature. "Carrying concealed weapons".

The Switchblade Knife Act ( Pub. L. Tooltip Public Law (United States) 85–623, 72 Stat. 562, aka SWA, enacted on August 12, 1958, and codified in 15U.S.C. §§1241– 1245), prohibits the manufacture, importation, distribution, transportation, and sale of switchblade knives in commercial transactions substantially affecting interstate commerce [49] between any state, territory, possession of the United States, or the District of Columbia, and any place outside that state, territory, U.S. possession, or the District of Columbia. The Act also prohibits possession of such knives on federal or Indian lands or on lands subject to federal jurisdiction. The federal SWA does not prohibit the ownership or carrying of automatic knives or switchblades inside state lines while not on federal property, nor does it prohibit the acquisition or disposition of such knives in an intrastate (in-state) transaction. Finally, the law does not prohibit interstate knife sales or transactions that are either noncommercial in nature, or which do not substantially affect interstate commerce (as defined by recent decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court).
