If you're in Indiana you can have anything except a ballistic knife, throwing stars, or caltrops. Caltrops are basically bent throwing stars though, I've always assumed that's why they were illegal to begin with.

I'm in Massachusetts but I can hop over to Rhode Island and buy any type of edged weapon, including a switchblade if I really wanted.
