Last time I went to Maryland I checked and you can take a handgun, as long as it is kept, un-loaded in a locked box in the trunk of your car. You can have a loaded gun in your room.
I did not check on knife laws.
Sounds like a lot of BS to me. I don't have trunks to begin with. A locked box? Or just out of reach of the driver? And unloaded? --- The is no valid law that can require me to have a 'trunk'---- there must be more to this.?

Well, if we DEFINE a separate compartment as being divided by seats in a pickup, and inaccessible by the driver, then that covers it.  Not trying to play any games here, just trying to clarify this.

I agree with you totally...after rereading the laws several times.
Being a knife dealer in maryland.
I still think its a gray area on wether or not i can sell switchblades to the open public (anyone) for now we only sell to police officers and active military(federal law)
i finally decided to purchase and carry a microtech ultratech OTF for my 2nd EDC.
(As i consider knives tools not weapons!!)
My first being an emerson cq7 wave.
Another gray area is the assisted OTF S&W knives not sure where they lie??
