I have 3 or 4 friends who all live very productive lives but have had convictions over 10 years ago and one asked me about it today.

I appreciate any input. Thanks
I am not aware of any Ohio or Federal law prohibiting possession of weapons other than firearms or dangerous ordnance by felons or other prohibited persons, so I believe they can carry knives today if they are not on paper or have an additional prohibition as part of their judgment.

Thank you
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold.
