It is strictly written in the taksali maryada that you cannot wear any sri sahib under 9 inches and it has to be in a gatra. Prefereably, you should wear a 3 and a half foot kirpan, but what you gonna do. I wear a 15 inch kirpan to school and no one says nothin, well oly once or twice, but still, its better than wearing those little kirpans that are like 3 inches. What the heck are you gonna do with that?

Approx. 13 inches with handle.. blade is around 9 inches

it doesn't feel that heavy and stuff.. though it's pure iron :nihungsmile:

[Uncrowned Warrior]

also, I wear illegal shastars all the time wherever i go, even in stores, nobody says anything, of course im smart about it, i dont parade them around..

MKhalsa, what kind of shashters do u wear?, and wear do u put them. Like stash em in ure pagh or watever? B)

[Mkhalsa]

i will mention 3 of my favorites... (cant reveal everything :nihungsmile: )

I have my sarbloh taksali kirpan with 9" blade (which i wear all the time), i will be getting a much bigger one soon.

I have a nightstick or club which looks like a pepper spray bottle or flashlight, but extends out and you can beat people with it, like a portable baseball bat.

and i have a double edged straight dagger/hunting knife with razor teeth on it which goes on a shoulder strap similar to a gun holster (this is illegal because double edged knives create a wound which cant heal on its own)

also, carrying concealed weapons is illegal in the entire united states, and usually kirpan fits under this category. BUT police officers and law enforcement are very lenient with it as its religious and they dont want to be sued. I know this from experience. But I am pretty sure I will be arrested if I am caught wtih the double edged one, but i wear it anyway I dont really care. lol

Baba Jarnail Singh Jee once said "If someone (police, etc) stops you and asks you to remove your shastars (guns, knives whatever) just say 'I am just a poor sikh and do not know any better' if they ask you again, teach them a lesson"

.. I think thats how it went..
