马萨诸塞州最高法院裁定开刀刀受第二修正案保护, 推翻1957年禁止携带武器的禁令。 Massachusetts' highest court has ruled that switchblade knives are protected under the Second Amendment, overturning a 1957 ban on carrying the weapons. 州法律禁止拥有刀片, 但法院裁定刀片“在全国被普遍拥有并被接受为合法的自卫手段”。 The state law prohibited possession of switchblades, but the court determined that the knives are "widely owned and accepted as a legitimate means of self-defense across the country." 这项裁决依据的是美国最高法院在纽约州步枪和手枪协会诉Bruen案中设定的先例。 该案扩大了枪支权,为评估武器限制创造了一个分为两部分的检验标准。 The ruling relies on the precedent set by the US Supreme Court in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, a case that expanded gun rights and created a two-part test for evaluating restrictions on weapons. 马萨诸塞州法院得出结论，弹簧刀属于第二修正案的定义，因为它们很常见并且具有合法用途。 The Massachusetts court concluded that switchblades fall under the Second Amendment definitions because they are common and serve a legitimate purpose.
