Is this knife legal to carry in California for hiking?
I just bought a jeep 4 1/2 inch blade. The whole knife from blade tip to back handle is 9 1/2 inches. It comes with a belt holder that have a knife strap to hold the handle with a metal button.
I live in California in Los Angles county. I want to take the knife hiking with me just in case. Some time I hike late. As long as the knife is visible, is it still illegal?
Here is the Picture.

As I read CA law about knives, you are legal with this knife. Keep in mind that hiking through the streets of Los Angles will get you stopped for violating the city's laws. If you are actually hiking in the country, then you are o.k.
