For knife and EDC gear retailers
Every knife shipped where, and how, the law allows.
For knife and EDC gear shops. Edgewise applies the two federal switchblade rules itself: no interstate shipping of switchblades except to Armed Forces or government buyers, and none by mail, with assisted-opening knives excepted. It applies the state rules you enter, blocks checkout with the reason shown, removes USPS from the shipping choices when an automatic is in the cart, and checks past orders against every rule. Edgewise holds no table of state knife laws and is not legal advice.
On its way to the Shopify App Store. Write to us and we will set your store up first - it is billed through your Shopify bill, like any app.
The problem
Checks every knife order against federal rules and your own state rules before it ships.
Knife and EDC gear retailers. $9 a month - beside generic ZIP blockers ($5.99) that know nothing of knives or carriers.
